A three-dimensional, variable-density solute-transport model (SEAWAT) was developed to examine causes of saltwater intrusion and predict the effects of future alterations to the hydrologic system on salinity distribution in eastern Broward County, Florida. The model was calibrated to conditions from 1970 to 2012, the period for which data are most complete and reliable, and was used to simulate historical conditions from 1950 to 2012. The model was used to (1) evaluate the sensitivity of the salinity distribution in groundwater to sea-level rise and groundwater pumping , and (2) simulate the potential effects of increases in pumping, variable rates of sea-level rise, movement of a salinity control structure, and...

A three-dimensional, surface-water/groundwater model (MODFLOW-NWT with the Surface-Water Routing Process) was developed to the predict the effects of groundwater pumpage on canal leakage and regional groundwater flow in urban portions of Miami-Dade County, Florida. The model was calibrated by using observation data collected from 1997 through 2004. The model calibration was verified using observation data collected from 2005 through 2010. The model is designed to simulate surface-water stage and discharge in the managed canal system and dynamic canal leakage to the Biscayne aquifer as well as seepage to the canal from the aquifer. The model was used to evaluate the effect of increased groundwater pumpage and (or)...

Two MODFLOW 6 (version 6.2.1) models of hypothetical stream-aquifer systems are presented for the demonstration and utility of the Water Mover (MVR) Package available only with MODFLOW 6. Using a generalized approach, MVR facilitates the transfer of water among many arbitrary combinations of simulated features (i.e., pumping wells, stream, drains, lakes, etc.) within a MODFLOW 6 simulation. In this archive, the nature of the two hypothetical models are (1) simple ("model1" in the model.zip file) and complex ("model2" in the model.zip file). "Model1" relies on a previously published parent-child nested grid simulation (see "example 3" on page 30 at https://pubs.usgs.gov/tm/6a44/) that has been refactored for MODFLOW...
