FloPy includes support for MODFLOW-2000, MODFLOW-2005, MODFLOW-NWT, and MODFLOW-USG. Other supported MODFLOW-based models include MODPATH (version 6), MT3D and SEAWAT.
For general modeling issues, please consult a modeling forum, such as the MODFLOW Users Group. Other MODFLOW resources are listed in the MODFLOW Resources section.
If you think you have found a bug in FloPy, or if you would like to suggest an improvement or enhancement, please submit a new Issue through the Github Issue tracker toward the upper-right corner of this page. Pull requests will only be accepted on the develop branch of the repository.
