This post introduces a workflow for visualizing individual model layers in TecPlot using a custom macro. The workflow overcomes the limitations of TecPlot's built-in “Value Blanking” functionality, which can produce artifacts in complex scenarios, such as when zones are out of order or cross layer boundaries.

This post introduces two new commands in HydroGeoSphere (Revision 2270): Report water table at xy and Report water table at node. These commands allow you to report the water table at a specific location, either by node or XY coordinates.

This post outlines the improved HydroGeoSphere restart functionality, designed to simplify resuming a model run after unexpected termination. Previously, restarting required modifying multiple input files, rerunning grok.exe, and manually appending outputs. Now, with the automatic generation of parallelindx.dat, restart_file_info.dat, and prefixo.restart, the process is much more efficient.

This post introduces a detailed tutorial on integrating PEST (Parameter ESTimation) with HydroGeoSphere (HGS) for automated parameter estimation. The tutorial walks through the structure of PEST input files and guides you on how to incorporate them into your HGS models. It's designed to help you run parameter estimation using PEST, though it doesn't cover advanced PEST modes like Tikhonov regularization or predictive analysis. The tutorial is based on the Abdul verification problem and includes all necessary input files.
