Several different types of wells are also demonstrated in the model. The model can be used to demonstrate how groundwater is formed and how it gets from one place to another. You can demonstrate water quality and how it is polluted, properties of aquifers, characteristics of water wells and interrelationship of groundwater and surface water.
