From 2013 to 2018, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Town of Enfield and the Tompkins County Planning Department, studied the unconsolidated aquifers in the Enfield Creek Valley in the town of Enfield, Tompkins County, New York. The objective of this study was to characterize the geohydrology and water quality of the unconsolidated aquifers in the Enfield Creek valley and produce a summary report of the findings. The spatial extent and geohydrologic framework of these unconsolidated aquifers were delineated using existing data, including soils maps, well records, geologic logs, topographic data, and published reports. An interactive ArcGIS Online web map of the geospatial datasets is available...

The U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, the Tug Hill Commission, the Jefferson County Soil and Water Conservation District, the Oswego County Soil and Water Conservation District, and the Tug Hill Land Trust studied the northern and central parts of the Tug Hill glacial aquifer to help communities make sound decisions about the groundwater resource. This child item dataset contains locations and labels of the surficial geologic units for the northern and central parts of the Tug Hill aquifer.

This child item dataset contains a shapefile that delineates traces of hydrogeologic sections illustrated in Heisig, 2023 (figure 3, plate 1). The "Section_id" attribute lists letter-number designations of each section. A second shapefile contains the map labels for the hydrogeologic sections in the format x - x'. By convention, the x is on the west side and the x' is on the east side of generally horizontal sections. In generally vertical sections, the x is the westernmost of the section ends and the x' is the eastermost end of the section line.

This geodatabase contains all of the map information used to publish the Surficial Geologic Map of the Owlshead Mountains 30’ X 60’ Quadrangle,Inyo and San Bernardino Counties, California: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map SIM-3496. The geodatabase and associated map delineate primarily surficial geology and neotectonics structure across the entire extent of this quadrangle, which includes 32 complete 7.5’ quadrangles located in the Owlshead Mountains, southern Death Valley, and adjoining basins and highlands in the southwestern section of Inyo County and the northeastern part of San Bernardino County in eastern California. The datasets contained in this Scientific Investigation Map describe the...

In 2015, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC), began an appraisal of the sand and gravel aquifers within the Owasco Inlet watershed, which covers about 117 square miles (mi2) and drains north directly to Owasco Lake, one of New York’s Finger Lakes. About three-quarters of the watershed is within Cayuga County; the remaining area (southern end) is in Tompkins County. The Owasco Inlet valley stretches about 18 miles (mi) from Owasco Lake south to the divide at Freeville. Major tributaries include Hemlock Creek on the west side of the watershed and Dresserville and Decker Creeks on the east side. A variety of data were compiled,...

This dataset is a compilation of six databases described in Haj, A.E., Soller, D.R., Reddy, J.E., Kauffman, L.J., Yager, R.M., and Buchwald, C.A., 2018, Hydrogeologic framework for characterization and occurrence of confined and unconfined aquifers in quaternary sediments in the glaciated conterminous United States—A digital map compilation and database: U.S. Geological Survey Data Series 1090, 31 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/ds1090. The six databases include: 1) Glacial Environments and Surficial Sediments (GESS) Geodatabase for the Glaciated, Conterminous United States, 2) Hydrogeologic Terranes for Glaciated Conterminous United States, 3) Bedrock Lithology for Glaciated Conterminous United States, 4) Groundwater...

From 2016 to 2018, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, conducted a study of the glacial geology and hydrogeology of valley-fill (sand and gravel) aquifers and surrounding uplands within a 112-square-mile area in southern Otsego and northwestern Delaware Counties, New York, centered around the city of Oneonta. The major valleys include those of the Susquehanna River, Otego Creek, Charlotte Creek, and Schenevus Creek. A variety of data were compiled, collected, and synthesized to provide a broad picture of the glacial deposits, hydrogeologic framework, aquifer occurrence, and water-resource potential in the area. Geospatial datasets (shapefiles)...

This data release is a compilation of the digital products from a hydrogeologic framework of the glaciated conterminous United States that were constructed to portray sediment and aquifer characteristics within this area. These digital products are described in Yager, R.M., Kauffman, L.J., Soller, D.R., Haj, A.E., Heisig, P.M., Buchwald, C.A., Westenbroek, S.M., and Reddy, J.E., 2018, Characterization and occurrence of confined and unconfined aquifers in Quaternary sediments in the glaciated conterminous United States: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2018–5091, 90 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20185091.
