In many groundwater studies, the areal extent of an aquifer is much larger than its thickness so that flow and transport take place primarily in horizontal directions. Thus, the most common type of modeling in practical applications is two-dimensional involving vertically averaged dependent variables, primarily hydraulic head and solute concentration.

This is a tutorial on depth-averaged groundwater modeling using COMSOL Multiphysics, primarily the Earth Science Module, with tips for avoiding some bumps on the road. We describe how to use COMSOL Multiphysics to solve problems involving, among others, regional flow, and pumping wells of infinitesimal and finite radius.
