Abstract

The Amsterdam Water Supply has been using both the finite difference model MODFLOW (McDonald, M.G., Harbaugh, A.W., 1989. A modular three-dimensional finite-difference ground water flow model. Chapter A1, USGS, Book 6, Modeling Techniques) and the analytic element model MLAEM (Strack, O.D.L., 1989. Groundwater Mechanics. Prentice Hall, Englewood Cliffs, NJ, (ISBN 0-13-365412-5); Strack, O.D.L., 1999. Principles of the analytic element method. Journal of Hydrology, 226, 128--138) for many years. Choosing one or the other depends on the hydrologic system, its scale and the hydrologic features to be taken into account. Either method has its specific advantages.
