iSGTW Image of the Week - Modeling Underground Waterflow with CODESA-3D

Image of the Week - Modeling Underground Waterflow with CODESA-3DCODESA-3D visualization of underground waterflow in the Korba aquifer in Tunisia. Image courtesy of Giuditta Lecca, CRS4, Italy and Domenico Vicinanza, CERN-IT and University of Salerno, Italy CODESA-3D, or COupled DEnsity-dependent variably SAturated flow and miscible transport, is an EUMedGrid application that models water movement in aquifers. This three-dimensional simulator can help hydrologists calculate how much fresh water can be pumped from costal aquifers before risking salt water contamination. EUMedGrid aims to create a grid infrastructure for research in the Mediterranean region.
