_mfLab_ (which stands for MODFLOW-laboratory) is an environment designed for efficient and flexible groundwater modeling using members of the MODFLOW suite, i.e. MT3DMS, SEAWAT etc. and including feature extending packages for them. These packages are numerous, each designed to model a specific groundwater flow process or boundary condition type (see http://water.usgs.gov/nrp/gwsoftware/modflow.html). Perhaps best of all, these programs and packages are open-source and free of charge, and used every day by a wide groundwater modeling community worldwide. In _mfLab_, the modeling workflow is scripted and, therefore, it is reproducible, which is hard if not impossible to achieve with a graphical user interface (GUI). _mfLab_ exploits the interactive environment of Matlab, (or the free environments of Octave or Scilab) to: 1) create models, 2) to write their input f
