Yang et al. (2010) studied the effect of topography driven flow on the development of convection cells in a groundwater aquifer. Topography driven flow refers to cases where elevation differences result in a sloping groundwater table. Temperature differences can result in buoyancy driven convective groundwater flow.
The objective here is to replicate some of the analyses presented by Yang et al. (2010) in an effort to determine if GeoStudio is suitable for these types of analyses.
