Detailed Description

This figure shows a triangular grid in which the size of the triangular cells is reduced in areas with relatively large hydraulic gradients, such as around the shoreline of a lake, near pumping wells, and along a stream. This type of layered grid can be represented using the Discretization by Vertices (DISV) Package in MODFLOW 6.
