MODFLOW 6 is the current version of the popular MODFLOW groundwater modeling program, developed and supported by the USGS. FloPy is the accompanying Python programming interface for interacting with MODFLOW. This course introduces the capabilities of MODFLOW 6 and demonstrates these capabilities using Jupyter Notebooks, repeatable workflows, and the FloPy package to develop and post-process working groundwater models. The course will demonstrate fundamental concepts for working in this environment. The course will also introduce newer capabilities available in MODFLOW 6, including particle tracking, solute transport, heat transport, variable-density flow, and surface water processes.
