Groundwater Mounding
"I really like the automatic gridding link to Surfer!"
--David Dahlstrom, Barr Engineering
HydroSOLVE, Inc. is pleased to announce the release of MOUNDSOLV, a new standalone software product for groundwater mounding analysis!
MOUNDSOLV includes solution methods and tools for groundwater mounding assessment not found in AQTESOLV:
- a new analytical solution by Zlotnik et al. (2017) for groundwater mounding in horizontal and sloping unconfined aquifers under both transient and steady-state conditions
- built-in visualization tools for profile, time-series and contour plots (example below) and a detailed report as well
Learn more about purchasing the standalone MOUNDSOLV software.
AQTESOLV (Pro version only) includes solutions by Hantush (1967) to compute the transient water-table rise (height of groundwater mound) beneath rectangular and circular recharge areas (infiltration basins or ponds).
Use the groundwater mounding tool in AQTESOLV to evaluate infiltration from recharge areas such as the following scenarios:
- septic fields
- stormwater retention basins
- groundwater recharge systems
- managed aquifer recharge
An easy-to-use wizard interface lets you to create grid files for use with external contouring software. If you have Surfer (v 6 or higher), AQTESOLV automatically displays a contour plot of a groundwater mound for you!
