MODFLOW-USG Transport is a version of MODFLOW that can be used to model groundwater flow and contaminate transport. To simulate matrix diffusion effects, it can be paired with the Matrix Diffusion Transport (MDT) package.
- Note: The MDT package is not an official package released by USGS. The MDT package provided with GMS is still being developed and may change in the future. Newer versions of the package may not be compatible with older projects.
The MDT Package dialog is divided into two parts: one on the left which shows the main sections, and one on the right which shows the inputs for the current section.

Comment lines can be added and will appear at the top of the MDT file.
VARIABLES
- IMDTCB – Cell-by-cell mass flux unit
- IMDTCF – Immobile domain concentration unit
- FRAHK – Hydraulic conductivity for fracture only
- FRADARCY – Darcy flux hydraulic conductivity for fracture only
- TSHIFTMD – Shift matrix diffusion start time
- tshift – Time elapsed since matrix diffusion began
AQUIFER PROPERTIES
- MDFLAG – An integer that controls how matrix diffusion is modeled in the system.
- VOLFRACMD – The portion of a grid cell occupied by a higher permeability material, representing the mobile domain's volume fraction.
- PORMD – The porosity of the low-permeability material in the matrix domain, showing the amount of space in a grid cell filled with immobile material.
- RHOBMD – The dry bulk density of the low-permeability material in the matrix domain.
- DIFFLENMD – The length over which diffusion occurs in the low-permeability material, indicating how far molecules travel during diffusion.
- TORTMD – The tortuosity of the matrix domain, representing the path that a molecule must travel during diffusion in the low-permeability material.
SPECIES PROPERTIES
- KDMD – The adsorption coefficient in the matrix domain, showing how a contaminant binds to the low-permeability material.
- DECAYMD – The rate at which a substance degrades in the low-permeability material, based on a first-order decay process.
- YIELDMD – The yield coefficient for chain decay at any location, representing the amount of mass produced by the decay of the parent component.
- DIFFMD – The diffusion coefficient for each species in the matrix domain, representing how quickly a substance spreads through the low-permeability material.
- AIOLD1MD – The concentration integral (equation 8) of each species in an element associated with matrix diffusion into an infinite acting adjacent aquitard (MDFLAG = 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7). This value is used to restart a simulation with prior matrix diffusion.
- AIOLD2MD – The concentration integral (equation 8) of each species in an element associated with matrix diffusion in low permeability zones that are embedded in the volume element (MDFLAG = 2, 5, 6, or 7). This value is used to restart a simulation with prior matrix diffusion.
