Great Artesian Basin groundwater modelling

Authors: W. Welsh and J Doherty

The history of groundwater modelling in the Great Artesian Basin and the challenges the data pose to groundwater modellers are described. Improvements in computing hardware and software, data quality and hydrodynamic understanding of the Basin enabled iterative improvements in the models. Some issues persist, such as data quality and a limited understanding of the hydrogeology of the Eulo-Nebine Ridge area in southern Queensland.
