Ground flow is different from surface flow, since it has to account for the slowdown and porousness of the medium. In general, horizontal ground flow is calculated using formulas described in Harbaugh 2005[1][2]. However, when an aquifer is present, the Aquifer formula is applied.

It depends on the configuration of the HYDRAULIC_CONDUCTIVITY_WITH_THICKNESS attribute value in the Water Overlay what Hydraulic Conductivity formula is used:

  • A value Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle <= 0} means Hydraulic Conductivity without Thickness formula will be used.
  • A value Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle > 0} means Hydraulic Conductivity with Thickness formula will be used.

Hydraulic Conductivity without Thickness

Two adjacent cells, where ground water level of cell 1 is larger than cell 2.

The flow between the two cells is calculated as:

Aquifer formula

When an aquifer is present, its hydraulic diffusivity is used to calculate the water flow.

Based on conditions being true, the calculated volume of water that is transported through the aquifer is calculated as:
