This dataset includes spreadsheets with statistical data (mean and median absolute error) used in deciding which interpolation method best fit the corresponding dataset. All statistical data were paired with a visual inspection of the interpolation prior to determining the final raster product. All spreadsheets were generated using an automated python script (Jahn, 2020).
This data release contains digital hydrogeologic datasets compiled for eight valley-fill aquifer systems in upstate New York. The data sets include input data necessary to create and interpolate the hydrogeologic framework of the aquifers and surrounding till-covered uplands. Input data is provided as point feature classes and georeferenced files of previously published reports along with the digitized data as line or polygon feature classes. Feature class datasets are provided for convenience and may contain subtle differences to shapefiles due to inherent differences in file types. The data release is composed of eight child items, one for each valley-fill area. Each child item contains the data pertaining...

Problem - Several supply wells in Oswego County were evaluated by the USGS in 1999 by using stable oxygen and hydrogen isotopes and chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) age dating techniques. For two municipal well sites (the Villages of Sandy Creek and Lacona, and the Village of Pulaski) that tap a shallow, unconfined aquifer (typically 20-50 ft thick) there were significant discrepancies between ground-water recharge ages determined by chemical data and those determined by ground-water-flow models developed by independent studies. The significant discrepancies between the times of travel of ground water as determined by numerical ground-water-flow modeling and geochemical dating techniques in Oswego County need to be understood...

Digital hydrogeologic datasets were developed for the Ellicottville study area in upstate New York in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. These datasets define the hydrogeologic framework of the valley-fill aquifer and surrounding till-covered uplands within the study area. Datasets include: bedrock elevation raster, LIDAR minimum elevation raster, valley-fill extent polygon, and surficial geology polygons. Elevation layers were interpolated at 125-foot discretization to match what was done in previous work.

This dataset includes "smoothing points" used in the creation of the Olean hydrogeologic framework. Smoothing points were manually added and were used to enhance interpolated layers using geologic assumptions and include: smoothing points for the upper and lower lacustrine confining surfaces, valley edge points, centerline bedrock points, bedrock contour points, and bedrock SSURGO points used in both the valley and upland interpolations.

Digital hydrogeologic datasets were developed for the Cincinnatus study area in upstate New York in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. These datasets define the hydrogeologic framework of the valley-fill aquifer and surrounding till-covered uplands within the study area. Datasets include: bedrock elevation raster, lacustrine silt and clay top and bottom elevation rasters, lidar minimum elevation raster, lacustrine extent polygon, valley-fill extent polygon, and surficial geology polygons. An alternate geologic interpretation was considered for modeling purposes. An alternate lacustrine extent and top and bottom elevation rasters are included within this data release. Elevation...

This dataset includes well logs used in the creation of the Cincinnatus hydrogeologic framework. Well logs were used from multiple sources (DEC, DOT, NWIS) and were a crucial component in generating hydrogeologic layer elevations and thicknesses. Well logs are available in their original form on GeoLog Locator (https://webapps.usgs.gov/GeoLogLocator/#!/) and provided here in the digitized form (shapefiles and feature classes), which were used in the generation of the hydrogeologic framework.

This dataset includes "smoothing points" used in the creation of the Greene hydrogeologic framework. Smoothing points were manually added by the project team and were used to enhance interpolated layers using geologic assumptions and include: valley edge points, bedrock points derived from cross sections, centerline bedrock points (and where applicable L1 and L2 points), and upland bedrock SURGO points.

This dataset includes well logs used in the creation of the Jamestown hydrogeologic framework. Well logs were used from multiple sources (DEC, DOT, NWIS, ESOGIS, and recently digitized archived material) and were a crucial component in generating hydrogeologic layer elevations and thicknesses. Well logs are available in their original form on GeoLog Locator (https://webapps.usgs.gov/GeoLogLocator/#!/) and provided here in the digitized form (shapefiles and feature classes), which were used in the generation of the hydrogeologic framework.
The town of Olean is located in Cattaraugus County, New York. Previous USGS reports here include Water- Resource Investigations Report 87-4043 (Yager and Bergeron, 1998), Water- Resource Investigations Report 85-4082 (Bergeron, 1987), and Water- Resource Investigations Report 85-4157 (Zarriello and Reynolds, 1987). The five child pages below break the data up into georeferenced and digitized previous report data, interpreted geologic information, well logs, supplemental point data, and interpolation statistics.

Problem The Peconic Estuary of eastern Long Island, New York, is undergoing development as the region transitions from a rural area dependent on agriculture and tourism to a suburban one with a larger year-round population. The glacial and coastal-plain sediments underlying Long Island comprise a sole-source aquifer system that supplies the region’s communities with potable water. The area surrounding the Peconic Estuary was intensely farmed prior to suburbanization. Nitrogen loading from past fertilizer use was high as estimated from historical information and the continued detection of legacy effects in the aquifer system. In some areas, the peak or bolus of agricultural nitrogen loading from practices several...
