What a SWAT+ with MODFLOW order builds
This is what a SWAT+ with MODFLOW order builds, here in Michigan's Lower Peninsula. First the SWAT+ model, from NHDPlus HR: six subbasins and seven hundred ninety-five channels over seven hundred thirty-one square kilometers. Its average yearly percolation becomes the recharge of a separate groundwater model, in MODFLOW 6, at steady state. That model has three layers on a two-hundred-fifty-meter grid, one hundred thirty-eight by one hundred forty-six cells. Its heads are calibrated to measured water levels at eight hundred fifty-five wells, a step that also scales the recharge, and checked at three hundred sixty-six more wells held out: here they are, simulated against measured. Both models come with the order. SWAT+ with MODFLOW is offered in Michigan's Lower Peninsula, Indiana, Minnesota, Ohio and Wisconsin.

This is what a SWAT+ with MODFLOW order builds, here in Michigan's Lower Peninsula.
First the SWAT+ model, from NHDPlus HR: six subbasins and seven hundred ninety-five channels over seven hundred thirty-one square kilometers.
Its average yearly percolation becomes the recharge of a separate groundwater model, in MODFLOW 6, at steady state.
That model has three layers on a two-hundred-fifty-meter grid, one hundred thirty-eight by one hundred forty-six cells.
Its heads are calibrated to measured water levels at eight hundred fifty-five wells, a step that also scales the recharge, and checked at three hundred sixty-six more wells held out: here they are, simulated against measured.
Both models come with the order. SWAT+ with MODFLOW is offered in Michigan's Lower Peninsula, Indiana, Minnesota, Ohio and Wisconsin.
Credits
Drawn from the files of one SWAT+ with MODFLOW build, made in October 2026 on SWATGenX's own account: the SWAT+ model of the watershed above the outlet of HUC-12 040700070609, Michigan, and its calibrated MODFLOW 6 model. The pricing-page line was captured on the live site on 2026-10-27, signed out. Data: USGS (NHDPlus HR, 3DEP), USDA NRCS (gSSURGO), NLCD, PRISM and NREL (NSRDB) for the SWAT+ model; water levels: water-well records from Michigan EGLE's Wellogic. Narration: synthetic voice.
