Modeling steps
This chapter gives step-by-step instructions for the setup of a model to simulate flow and transport in a fractured limestone aquifer. The following list shows the typical steps to setup a model for contaminant transport in a fractured limestone aquifer:
- Formulation of modeling objective
- Delineation of model domain
- Construction of conceptual model
- Data acquisition - measurements to obtain specific model parameters
- Choice of initial and boundary conditions
- Flow chart giving an overview of the individual steps
Model calibration
Model reporting
Example: Setup of models for a contaminated site with a fractured limestone aquifer (Akacievej, Hedehusene)
The typical workflow will be demonstrated using an example field site close to Copenhagen. Example: Setup of models for a field site (Akacievej, Hedehusene)
