MODFLOW 6 Models Used to Simulate Groundwater Flow and Nitrogen Transport in the Long Island Sound Watershed on Long Island, New York
Description
This groundwater model archive documents coupled transient and steady-state regional and inset numerical models of the Long Island aquifer system to simulate groundwater flow and nitrogen transport using the US Geological Survey groundwater modeling software MODFLOW 6 (Langvin and others, 2017 and 2022). The regional model domain encompasses all of Long Island, New York, while the inset model domain encompasses the Long Island Sound watershed on Long Island, New York. The development and calibration of the regional groundwater flow model is documented in Walter and others (2024). The development of regional groundwater nitrogen transport models and coupled regional-inset groundwater flow and nitrogen transport models are documented in Jahn and Walter (2025). Model input and output files included in this data release are documented in the readme.txt.
