Short Courses & Workshops 2005
Advanced modeling of water flow and Contaminant Transport in the Vadose Zone and Groundwater
October 17 - 19, 2005
Utrecht University, The Netherlands
This three-day short course and workshop begins with a detailed conceptual and mathematical description of water flow and solute transport processes in the vadose zone, followed by an overview of the use of finite element techniques for solving the governing flow and transport equations. Special attention is given to the highly nonlinear nature of the governing flow equation. Alternative methods for describing and modeling the hydraulic functions of unsaturated porous media are also described. “Hands-on” computer sessions will provide participants an opportunity to become familiar with the Windows-based RETC, STANMOD, Hydrus-1D, 2D, and 3D software packages. HYDRUS-3D will be presented and demonstrated for the first time.For more details and registration visit
