Description

Title
Calibrated MODFLOW horizontal hydraulic conductivity (m/day) 
Alternate title
MODFLOW_K 
Purpose
Horizontal hydraulic conductivity values are used as a groundwater flow modelling input parameter however they can also be used in other groundwater system studies such as water resource appraisals, contaminant modelling, bore field assesments, extractive industry assesments and aquifer storage and recovery assesments.

Comments
Hydraulic conductivity values are generalised over each model area and can not represent the true spatial variability within heterogenous geological structures such as aquifers. They can however represent the overall expected conductivity rates which is suitable when looking at catchment scale impacts.
