To display a model input, check the radio box next to ‘Display Input’, then select the model variable from
the corresponding drop-down menu (see Figure 5-5). Click ‘OK’ to save the changes, then re-submit the
12
model for simulation . The model inputs will appear in the model domain when the simulation is finished.

Examples of model inputs being displayed within the model domain are shown in Figure 5-6

5.2.3 Displaying Simulated Seepage Area

One of the options in the ‘Display Input’ drop-down menu is ‘Seepage Area’. When this is selected and the
radio box next to ‘Display Input’ is checked, the updated display will include purple cross-hair graphics in
locations where groundwater is seeping to the surface (i.e., water is leaving the aquifer to discharge to a
surface water body such as a stream, lake, wetland, etc.). An example is shown in Figure 5-7.

12 It is only necessary to re-submit the model for simulation when performing steady-state modeling. If performing
transient modeling, simply pause the model, update the display input option, then run the model forward. The
updated display input option will appear after the following simulation time-step is solved.
