Groundwater is the world’s most extracted raw material with withdrawal rates currently in the estimated
range of 982 km3/year[1]. The interaction of groundwater and surface water is one of the major concerns
in water resources management today, as nearly all surface water bodies interact with groundwater. The
aim of this minisymposia is to cover state of the art mathematical and computational frameworks and
applications for coupling groundwater and surface water models. We hope to create a collaborative space
for the world’s leading scientists and research groups to share their experiences in both the fundamental
and applied aspects of groundwater/surface water coupling methods. The topics covered in this
minisymposia will help collaborators gain both an awareness of modern model coupling software options
and information on their mathematical frameworks. Topics of this minisymposia include but are not
limited to novel mathematical/computational frameworks for GW/SW coupling, large scale and/or novel
applications of coupled GW/SW problems and high-performance computing implementation/application
of GW/SW coupled models.
