I have mostly dealt with contaminant transport in groundwater and recently stumbled upon the idea of contaminants being dropped on a river. Since rivers are commonly described with 1D equations and are not properly hortonian flow I am unsure of whether using software with 2D equations would yield a correct approximation.
So, I would like to know if is there a specific software for contaminant transport modeling in rivers?
you should probably check Delft package. In details, DELWAQ is a tool of the ecology and hydrology programmes of the DELFTH3D and can put water and contaminant transport together.
In addition to Dr. Rahimi's input, try WASP (USEPA) as an open source package. Depending on what you are studying, there is a host of many applications out there.
Thank you so very much Hamidreza Rahimi for your guidance as well as Andrey Nagdalian for that list which I found extremely useful. As for your recommendation Sami Maalouf , I already downloaded WASP and I believe its certainly what I was looking for!
