Abstract

The difficulty to integrate a groundwater model into the simulation of complex water resources systems is due to the complexity of sophisticated numerical models that have to be coupled with the simulation of surface water, and to the necessity to use a wide set of computer tools needed for preprocessing data and visualizing results. For this purpose AQUIVAL has been developed. AQUIVAL is a Graphic User Interface (GUI) integrated in a Computer Aided Support System for water resources planning and management including conjunctive use, called AQUATOOL (Andreu et. alt.^). It has been developed at the Universidad Politecnica de Valencia, Spain. It allows the integration of previously calibrated aquifer models
