Distributed parameter estimation using pilot points of a MODFLOW 6 - PEST peninsula model

An applied example of the implementation of pilot points of PEST for the hydraulic conductivity on peninsula groundwater flow model. Content: - PEST simulation with 20 observation points - Definition of distributed pilot points from a shapefile - Hydraulic conductivity, GHB conductance and recharge rate as PEST parameters

Intructor / Instructor:

Saul Montoya M.Sc

Hydrogeologist - Numerical Modeler

Mr. Montoya is a Civil Engineer graduated from the Catholic University in Lima with postgraduate studies in Management and Engineering of Water Resources (WAREM Program) from Stuttgart University – Germany with mention in Groundwater Engineering and Hydroinformatics. Mr Montoya has a strong analytical capacity for the interpretation, conceptualization and modeling of the surface and underground water cycle and their interaction. He is in charge of numerical modeling for contaminant transport and remediation systems of contaminated sites. Inside his hydrological and hydrogeological investigations Mr. Montoya has developed an holistic comprehension of the water cycle, understanding and quantifying the main hydrological dynamic process of precipitation, runoff, evaporation and recharge to the groundwater system.
