Pepin, J.D., and Robertson, A.J., 2021, Estimated groundwater elevations and standard errors from the application of kriging to median groundwater elevation data from 2010 in the Mesilla/Conejos-Médanos Basin, United States and Mexico: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P98Z25JG.

Summary

These data include 217 median groundwater elevations computed from compiled measurements made in the year 2010 within the transboundary Mesilla/Conejos-Médanos Basin, United States and Mexico, along with their corresponding interpolated groundwater elevations and standard errors from the application of kriging. Of the 217 median groundwater elevation locations, 109 were in the United States and 108 were in Mexico. Considered measurements were limited to wells thought to be completed in the basin-fill/Santa Fe Group aquifer based on well records. This dataset includes a comma-separated values file (Control_points.csv) that provides the median groundwater elevations that were kriged to yield rasters of estimated groundwater elevations [...]

Purpose

As part of the Transboundary Aquifer Assessment Program (TAAP), median groundwater elevations were interpolated to estimate regional groundwater elevations and corresponding groundwater flow directions in the transboundary Mesilla/Conejos-Médanos Basin, United States and Mexico, in the year 2010. These data and corresponding analyses serve to inform water management decisions in New Mexico, Texas, and Mexico.
