Abstract Physical models are a well‐established tool in education to strengthen hydrological understanding. They facilitate the straightforward visualization of processes and allow communication concepts, research questions general interest public. In order visualize water cycle landscape postglacial sediments, particular subsurface part, physical model was constructed. two videos, (1) detailed construction manual (2) examples concepts presented. With our contribution, we like encourage professionals field hydrology share methods tools knowledge transfer concepts. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
