Johnson, A.G. and Gingerich, S.B., 2017, Monthly Water-Budget Components for Roi-Namur, Kwajalein Atoll, Republic of the Marshall Islands, 2000-12: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/F7GM85H0.

Summary

The zipped folder (Monthly_water_budget_Roi-Namur_2000-12.zip) associated with this metadata file contains 156 polygon shapefiles. Collectively, the 156 shapefiles contain spatially distributed estimates of groundwater recharge and other water-budget components, in inches, for Roi-Namur, Kwajalein Atoll, Republic of the Marshall Islands, for each month and year during 2000–12. The name of each shapefile indicates the year and month of the water-budget components contained in the shapefile. The month-year estimates of recharge and other water-budget components summarized in each shapefile were summed from daily water-budget components that were computed using a water-budget model. The equations of the water-budget model that we used [...]

Purpose

The water-budget components in each shapefile were determined as part of an analysis to estimate the spatial and temporal distribution of groundwater recharge on Roi-Namur, for historic conditions (2000–12). The recharge estimates may be used in numerical groundwater models that can evaluate the effects of groundwater withdrawals seawater intrusion, and seawater flooding on groundwater levels, coastal discharge, and salinities in wells on Roi-Namur.
