MT3DMS (Modular Transport, 3-Dimensional, Multi-Species model) is a modular three-dimensional transport model for the simulation of advection, dispersion, and chemical reactions of dissolved constituents in groundwater systems (Zheng, 1990). MT3DMS uses a modular structure similar to the structure utilized by MODFLOW. MT3DMS is used in conjunction with [[GMS:MODFLOW|MODFLOW]] in a two step flow and transport simulation. Heads and cell-by-cell flux terms are computed by MODFLOW during the flow simulation and are written to a specially formatted HFF file (referenced by the LMT file). Note: MODFLOW will produce these files even if transport is turned off. These files are then read by MT3DMS and utilized as the flow field for the transport portion of the simulation. | MT3DMS (Modular Transport, 3-Dimensional, Multi-Species model) is a modular three-dimensional transport model for the simulation of advection, dispersion, and chemical reactions of dissolved constituents in groundwater systems (Zheng, 1990).

A special version of MT3DMS is distributed with GMS, and the model is included with all [http://www.aquaveo.com/software/gms-pricing paid editions] of GMS. This version of MT3DMS has been modified to output [[GMS:Dataset Files|GMS dataset files]]. GMS supports MT3DMS as a pre- and post-processor where the input data for MT3DMS is generated by GMS and saved to a set of files. These files are then read by MT3DMS when MT3DMS is executed from the [[GMS:MT3DMS Commands|GMS menu]].

==MT3DMS Run Options== | |||
MT3DMS requires using solution files generated from a MODFLOW model run. An option is provided to use MODFLOW solution files completed from previous model runs using the ''Run Options'' dialog. | |||
