Abstract
The U.S. Geological Survey’s SUTRA code is the most widely used simulator in the world for seawater intrusion and other variabledensity groundwater flow problems based on solute transport or heat transport. Since its initial release in 1984, the SUTRA code has also been widely used for many other types of problems. It is routinely employed for hydrogeologic analyses published in both white and gray scientific literature, and for many practical engineering studies that are not widely distributed. It is used in university courses to teach hydrologic concepts and modeling.
