Liu, S. (author), Zhou, Yangxiao (author), Xie, Mingzhao (author), McClain, M.E. (author), Wang, Xu Sheng (author)A coupled regional and local model is required when groundwater flow and solute transport are to be simulated in local areas of interest with a finer grid while regional aquifer boundary and major stresses should be retained with a coarser grid. The coupled model should also maintain interactions between the regional and local flow systems. In...journal article 2021
