These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. The U.S. Geological Survey and its partners have collaborated to complete airborne geophysical surveys for areas of the North and South Platte River valleys and Lodgepole Creek in western Nebraska. The objective of the surveys was to map the aquifers and bedrock topography of selected areas to help improve the understanding of groundwater-surface-water relationships to be used in water management decisions. Frequency-domain (2008...

This dataset was developed for use with the Tennessee STATSGO data base as an additional datafile. Each record in the datafile relates to a STATSGO MUID number which is assigned to a polygon(s) in the STATSGO geographic coverage. Four soil attributes were derived from the COMP and LAYER datafiles of STATSGO, all of which are represented as percentages of the particular map unit's area. By representing these properties as percentages,...

This dataset is a representation of the depth in feet to bedrock as reported in the driller's log for the Water Wells Database of the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC), Division of Water Supply (DWS). The coverage "Superfund GIS - Private Well Locations for Tennessee" was used to provide locations while a field retrieval from the DWS database was used to provide depths in feet.

The Umpqua River drains 12,103 square kilometers (4,673 square miles) in southwest Oregon before flowing into the Pacific Ocean at Winchester Bay near the city of Reedsport. In cooperation with the Portland District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the USGS evaluated sediment transport and gravel storage along the downstream alluvial reaches of the North and South Umpqua Rivers and the entire mainstem Umpqua River. This...

The shapefile associated with this metadata file represents the spatial distribution of mean annual water-budget components, in inches, for Hawaii Island, Hawaii. The water-budget components in the shapefile were computed by a water-budget model for a scenario representative of predevelopment conditions (1916-83 rainfall and 1870 land cover), as described in USGS Scientific Investigations Report (SIR) 2015-5164. The model was developed for estimating groundwater recharge and other water-budget components for each subarea of the model. The model-subarea data set, consisting of 467,805 subareas (polygons), was generated using Esri ArcGIS software by intersecting (merging) multiple spatial data sets. Spatial datasets...

The digital data set delineates the outer boundary of each major discharge area evaluated as part of the study. These areas were used to refine estimates of ground-water discharge throughout the Death Valley regional flow system. As delineated, boundaries include all phreatophytic vegetation and moist soil areas within a discharge area. The boundaries were used to focus efforts associated with classifying the different vegetation...

These geospatial data sets consist of surface grids of precipitation depths for seven frequencies at 12 durations used in a regional precipitation frequency analysis for Oklahoma. Eighty-four depth-duration-frequency surfaces were interpolated from precipitation-station data. The grid-cell spacing is 2,000 meters. Each depth-duration-frequency surface was interpolated using the same interpolation function and parameters. Data were...

This data set consists of digitized water-level elevation contours for the Vamoosa-Ada aquifer in east-central Oklahoma. The Vamoosa-Ada aquifer is an important source of water that underlies about 2,320-square miles of parts of Osage, Pawnee, Payne, Creek, Lincoln, Okfuskee, and Seminole Counties. Approximately 75 percent of the water withdrawn from the Vamoosa-Ada aquifer is for municipal use. Rural domestic use and water for stock...
An existing three-dimensional groundwater flow model of northern Utah County (https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20095049), was updated for use with the Groundwater Management Process(GWM) for MODFLOW-2005, to evaluate the optimal managed aquifer recharge scenarios with the objective of maintaining acceptable reductions in simulated discharge at 12 groundwater discharge areas along Utah Lake. Groundwater is a primary source of drinking water in northern Utah County. By 2066, the amount of groundwater withdrawn is estimated to be roughly 65 percent of annual average recharge. To prepare for anticipated future increases in groundwater withdrawals, local cities have identified 16 locations as feasible for managed aquifer recharge....
