# Coupling

## iMOD

Ribasim can also be (online) coupled to other kernels with the help of iMOD Coupler. The corresponding documentation can be found within the [iMOD Suite Documentation](https://deltares.github.io/iMOD-Documentation/coupler.html).

## Water quality

Ribasim can be offline coupled to Delwaq, the Deltares Water Quality model. Note that this functionality is still in active development.

### Setup

Delwaq can calculate the concentration of substances in Ribasim Basin nodes over time, based on initial concentrations in basins, and of boundary flows. Ribasim exposes the [Basin / concentration](usage.qmd#sec-basin-conc), [Basin / concentrationstate](usage.qmd#sec-basin-conc-state), [FlowBoundary / concentration](usage.qmd#sec-flow-boundary-conc), and [LevelBoundary / concentration](usage.qmd#sec-level-boundary-conc) tables to setup these substances and concentrations.

When a Ribasim model has been run with the above tables, one can use the utilities in the `coupling/delwaq` folder to generate the input required for Delwaq to run, as well as to parse the output from Delwaq into a Ribasim compatible format. For more information see the `README.md` in the same folder.
