contents A Jacobian free Newton Krylov (JFNK) method with a globalization scheme is introduced to solve large and complex nonlinear systems of equations that arise in groundwater flow models of multi-layer aquifer systems. We explore the advantages of the JFNK method relative to the Newton-Krylov (NK) method and identify the circumstances in which the JFNK method demonstrates computing efficiency. We perform the validation and efficiency of the JFNK method on various test cases involving an unconfined single-layer aquifer and a two-layer aquifer with both confined and unconfined conditions. The results are validated by the NK method. The JFNK method is incorporated in Integrated Water Flow Model (IWFM), an integrated hydrologic model developed and maintained by California Department of Water Resources. We examine the determinacy of the JFNK's adaptability on practical models such as the California Central Valley Groundwater-Surface Water Simulation Model (C2VSim).
