Groundwater interaction in GSSHA models can only be performed in conjunction with one of the following infiltration methods:

  • Green & Ampt with soil moisture redistribution
  • Richards' equation

To model groundwater interaction in a GSSHA model:

  1. Assign groundwater boundary conditions conceptually to feature points/nodes and arcs on the GSSHA coverage.
  2. Turn on the Groundwater option in the Job Control, and set the global parameters by clicking Edit parameters... to bring up the GSSHA Groundwater dialog.
  3. Turn on the Sub-surface losses/gains option for GSSHA stream arcs in order to model groundwater interaction with the GSSHA channel network. (optional)

Modeling

Groundwater Boundary Conditions

WMS can assign these boundary conditions to feature points/nodes:

  • Generic
  • Constant head
  • Static well
  • Dynamic well

The following groundwater boundary conditions are allowed for feature arcs:

  • Generic
  • No flow
  • Constant head
  • Flux river
  • Head river

WMS automatically generates Gw Boundary and Wells index maps, according to the groundwater boundary conditions conceptualized using feature points/nodes and arcs on the GSSHA coverage, when the Groundwater option is toggled on in the Job Control. These index maps will appear in the Index Maps folder of the Project Explorer and are useful for visualizing boundary conditions and well locations/pumping rates. If wells are defined then the Wells map table, which is not visible in the Map Tables dialog, is also populated when the Wells index map is created. Any changes that are made to either the boundary conditions or wells require regenerating the index maps (and wells map table) by right-clicking on either of the index maps in the Project Explorer and selecting the Regenerate command.

The groundwater boundary condition map and, if necessary, the well index map and map table are also written when the GSSHA *.prj file is saved.

GSSHA Groundwater Dialog

GSSHA Groundwater dialog

Enter parameters that control the groundwater computations in the GSSHA Groundwater dialog. The Aquifer cell size parameter is the vertical cell size used with Richard's infiltration. Specify continuous datasets used to define the aquifer bottom and water table. Hydraulic conductivity and porosity can be defined using continuous datasets or by assigning parameters in the Groundwater map table based on an index map generated using soil type data.

WMS writes all global groundwater parameters to the GSSHA *.prj file. The groundwater map table (hydraulic conductivity and porosity) will be written to the *.cmt file if Ids exist. Otherwise, hydraulic conductivity and porosity must be specified as continuous maps.

Channels

Interaction between the groundwater and the channel network is controlled for each link by toggling on the Sub-surface losses/gains option and specifying a sediment thickness and hydraulic conductivity. These values are written to the *.cif file.
