Context
Surface and subsurface waters are not isolated components of the hydrologic system, but interact in response to topographic, soil, geologic, and climatic factors.
Groundwater seepage can take the dual role of source and sink:• Groundwater may seep out from shallow aquifer and feed networks of irregular channels.• Surface water may seep back into the ground, possibly depleting streams until they run dry.
![Page 3: The CATchment HYdrology (CATHY) Model](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/56816851550346895dde5663/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Context
The interaction of groundwater and surface flow is a key focus of interest for:• Water resources management (under the effects of climate and land use and demographic changes)• Water quality (e.g., role hyporheic fluxes in aquatic habitats)• Geomorphology (e.g., action of groundwater seepage on channel initiation)
A number of modeling tools and approaches have been developed for studying coupled surface water-groundwater systems: Three-dimensional equation for variably saturated subsurface flow, i.e., Richards equation, coupled with a one- or two-dimensional approximation of the Saint-Venant equations for overland and channel flow, represent the current state-of-the-art in catchment-aquifer models.

Model description: Numerical discretization
Surface:
• PDE of the kinematic wave solved by a finite difference (FD) scheme
• Numerical dispersion arising from the truncation error of the scheme is used to simulate the physical dispersion
• Unconditional stability reached by matching numerical and physical diffusivities through the temporal weighting factor used to discretize the kinematic wave model
![Page 7: The CATchment HYdrology (CATHY) Model](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/56816851550346895dde5663/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Model description: Numerical discretization
Subsurface:
• PDE solved by a three-dimensional finite element (FE) spatial integrator and by a weighted finite difference (FD), i.e. Euler or Crank-Nicolson, scheme in time
• Nonlinearity arising from the storage (Sw) and conductivity Krw(Sw) terms are handled via a Picard or Newton linearization scheme
• Time varying boundary conditions: prescribed head (Dirichlet type) or flux (Neumann type), atmospheric fluxes, source/sink terms, and seepage faces

Model description: Surface–subsurface interactions
The coupling between the land surface and the subsurface is handled by an automatic boundary condition (BC) switching algorithm acting on the source/sink terms qs(h) and qL(h,).
The coupling term is computed as the balance between atmospheric forcing (rainfall and potential evaporation) and the amount of water that can actually infiltrate or exfiltrate the soil.
The switching check is done surface node by surface node in order to account for soil and topographic variability.
The switching check is done at each time the surface equation is solved (according to the values of ponding heads at the surface) and at each subsurface time or iteration.
