英格兰东南部的泰晤士盆地由多个独立的含水层系统组成，用于公共和私人供水，也为泰晤士河及其支流提供基流。最重要的含水层是白垩，一种纯白色的裂隙石灰岩，在过去的几十年里人们对其进行了广泛的研究，以了解其水力特性。因此，可以建立分布式数值模型来模拟该含水层内的地下水流。其他含水层系统中的地下水过程，例如盆地西北部的侏罗纪石灰岩（大鲕岩群和下鲕岩群），都很复杂，而且了解较少。这些含水层还在干旱条件下支持河流基流。
本文介绍了使用开放建模接口 (OpenMI) 标准来链接适当模型的结果。该模型由完全分布式的 Chalk 地下水流模型、简化的侏罗纪石灰岩地下水模型和河流模型组成。 OpenMI 允许不同类型的模型在运行时进行通信。这种方法可以适当地表示泰晤士河流域内的流动过程，从而改善地下水流的模拟，从而能够在未来的气候情景下更好地管理地下水和地表水资源。
The Thames Basin in the south-east of England consists of multiple and separate aquifer systems, which are used for public and private water supply and also provide baseflow to the River Thames and its tributaries. The most important aquifer is the Chalk, a pure white fractured limestone, which has been extensively studied over the past decades to understand its hydraulic characteristics. A distributed numerical model can be built, therefore, to simulate the groundwater flows within this aquifer. Groundwater processes in other aquifer systems such as the Jurassic limestone (Great and Inferior Oolite Groups) in the north-west of the basin are complex and less well understood. These aquifers also support river baseflow under drought conditions.
This paper presents the results of using the Open Modeling Interface (OpenMI) standard to allow appropriate models to be linked. The composition consists of a fully distributed groundwater flow model of the Chalk, a simplified groundwater model of the Jurassic limestones and a river model. OpenMI allows the different types of models to communicate during run-time. This approach allows an appropriate representation of the flow processes within the Thames basin and consequently improves the simulation of groundwater flows, enabling better management of groundwater and surface water resources under future climate scenarios.
