ABSTRACT
This research evaluated how modifying the conceptual model of a groundwater system affects simulated
results. At the first stage, mathematical model of groundwater flow in Gdansk aquifer system was built.
In the next stage, 3 analytical schemes resulting from aquifer aggregation were defined. Then the flows and
groundwater balances were computed and compared to flows and balances computed in the overall model
of the Gdańsk aquifer system.
