Analytical Groundwater Modeling: Theory and Applications using Python by Mark Bakker and Vincent Post is an English-language study book that provides insight into analytical groundwater modeling. This book focuses on theory and applications and is suitable for students and professionals in hydrogeology.
It covers the theoretical foundations of mathematical groundwater models, using Python for the implementation of one-dimensional and two-dimensional models. The content ranges from simple basic principles to complex scenarios such as confined and unconfined aquifers with influences from sources, rivers, and groundwater table fluctuations.
Special attention is given to coastal aquifers, including the effects of tides and interface flows. The included Python scripts make it possible to modify the models and quickly visualize results. This book is therefore a valuable reference for both advanced students and practical professionals who want to delve into analytical groundwater modeling and its applications.
The content aligns with hydrology and applied mathematics and provides a strong foundation for understanding and simulating groundwater systems.
