The Integrated Hydrologic Model<\/a> (IHM) is a sophisticated and powerful computer tool. It estimates how an action in one part of the area\u2019s natural stream or aquifer system affects other parts of the system.

The IHM is used to study surface water and groundwater. Surface water includes streams, lakes, and wetlands. Groundwater includes the shallow aquifer, deep aquifer, and springs. IHM is especially helpful in areas where the shallow aquifer (groundwater-table) is close to land surface.  This single computer model addresses all of the details of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
