Anderson Woessner and Hunt (2015) book problems
This repository is for teaching materials for Chapter 3 of Anderson Woessner and Hunt (2015). Here we use the Python Notebook approach for creating and exploring a Chapter 3 problem from the book. Instructions for minimum iPython Notebook installation are found here at http://ipython.org/install.html.
One approach is to use the 'Download ZIP' button on the righthand side of the browser window. This will download a complete zip of all files in the repository and has the correct dependencies to display embedded graphics. Simply unzip into a local directory (e.g., \Chapter3_problems) that you have read/write rights to run the notebook. The notebooks encourage the user to try different settings and re-execute the groundwater model to see what the effect is. However, it is helpful to keep the ZIP file to facilitate quick access to the original working versions.
Click the hyperlink below to see a fully executed and static version of the notebook. All steps have been executed and all output shown. This can be used to cut and paste to a new Python notebook, or for comparison to local execution of notebooks downloaded from this site.
The teaching material is designed to form one resource for an open-source teaching environment that facilitates a high quality groundwater and environmental modeling community into the future. This software, documentation, and example data sets are made available by the authors and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to be used in the public interest and in the advancement of science. The performance of teaching materials has been tested in a variety of applications. Future applications, however, might reveal errors that were not detected in the test simulations. Users are requested to notify rjhunt@facstaff.wisc.edu if any errors are found in this material. Updates might occasionally be made to this material and the underlying software; users are encouraged to check the website periodically.
