3DFATMIC
Three-Dimensional Subsurface Flow, Fate and Transport of Microbes and Chemicals (3DFATMIC) Model
3DFATMIC is a three dimensional groundwater model that simulates flow in saturated and unsaturated zones and the fate and transport of contaminants, including relevant chemical or biological transformations.

- Spatial Resolution
- Spatial resolution is variable. The model provides an increased level of accuracy at larger grid size than finite difference models.
- Temporal Resolution
- Temporal resolution is variable. Model has an increased level of accuracy at larger time steps than for models using finite difference solution approaches.
- Outputs
- Outputs specifics include water quality characteristics.
