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. This feature class represents the southern extent of glacial deposits in the Williston Structural basin.

This data release presents geologic map data for the surficial geology of the Aztec 1-degree by 2-degree quadrangle. The map area lies within two physiographic provinces of Fenneman (1928): the Southern Rocky Mountains province, and the Colorado Plateau province, Navajo section. Geologic mapping is mostly compiled from published geologic map data sources ranging from 1:24,000 to 1:250,000 scale, with limited new interpretive contributions. Gaps in map compilation are related to a lack of published geologic mapping at the time of compilation, and not necessarily a lack of surficial deposits. Much of the geology incorporated from published geologic maps is adjusted based on digital elevation model and natural-color...

This data release presents geologic map data for the surficial geology of the Durango 1-degree by 2-degree quadrangle and adjacent areas along the northern boundary of the quadrangle. The map area lies within two physiographic provinces of Fenneman (1928): the Southern Rocky Mountains province, and the Colorado Plateau province, Navajo section. Geologic mapping is mostly compiled from published geologic map data sources ranging from 1:24,000 to 1:250,000 scale, with limited new interpretive contributions.

A three-dimensional (3D) groundwater flow model of the glaciated sediments around Elkhart, Indiana was constructed as part of the U.S. Geological Survey Groundwater Resources Program using lithologic records from water well logs. Texture-based hydraulic conductivities were assigned to vertical intervals along each lithology record. A three-dimensional kriging program read texture-based hydraulic conductivity values for each vertical interval and calculated a continuous 3D distribution of hydraulic conductivity for the entire model domain. The model was calibrated to hydrologic conditions in May and June of 1979. The model was used to simulate groundwater flow paths from points of recharge to points of discharge....
