Problem - The valley-fill deposits in Upper Buttermilk Creek/Danby Creek valleys are sources of water for many homeowners, farms, and small businesses that are in this valley. The aquifer was mapped by Miller (2000) and identified as one of the 17 aquifers in Tompkins County that needs to be studied in more detail. However, there is little geohydrologic data in the valley. A cluster of wells in Upper Buttermilk valley are finished in sand and gravel, indicating that there is a sand and gravel aquifer in, at least, part of the valley. The Upper Buttermilk Creek/Danby Creek valleys are "through valleys"-- a part of a valley where the bedrock floor rose to land surface and formed a preglacial surface-water divide....
This data release has been deprecated. The new version can be found at https://doi.org/10.5066/P95XKK5V. A Soil-Water-Balance (SWB) model was developed to estimate annual net infiltration below the root-zone for the Greater Wake County Area, North Carolina for the period 1981 through 2019 and project future estimates from 2020 through 2070. The model was developed as part of a study to assess groundwater availability in the fractured-rock aquifers underlying Wake County. The model is documented in the associated report, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Scientific Investigations Report 2022-5041. Comparison was done with annual base-flow estimates from the PART hydrograph separation technique for available years of...

The Groundwater Usage for Public Supply dataset contains attributes pertaining to groundwater use in the glaciated conterminous United States summarized by county. The attributes were computed from total groundwater usage by county compiled by Maupin and others (2010), and from inventories of water-use records for 71,267 public water-supply systems by Buchwald and others (in press). Source aquifers (Quaternary sediments or bedrock) were assigned for the public water-supply systems based on reported data (e.g., well construction records, aquifer delineation maps), or based on well depth and the Quaternary sediment thickness. Water usage rates are reported on an average annual, areal basis in units of millimeters...

A digital representation of the study area boundary adopted for the GIS analyses. The boundary was created by intersecting an index of USGS 1:24,000-scale, 7.5-minute quadrangle maps with data containing selected bedrock geologic units from U.S. Geological Survey Data Series 1052. The final study area boundary covers more than 20,000 square miles, amounting to 38 percent of New York State and transecting 42 counties.

The New York State Departments of Environmental Conservation and Health are concerned about groundwater contamination in the carbonate-bedrock aquifers with the potential to host karst features throughout New York State, especially relating to the unintended introduction of chemical or agricultural contamination into these aquifers. USGS Scientific Investigations Report, SIR 2020-5030 (Kappel and others, 2020), provides local and State regulators and the public the information needed to determine the extent of carbonate bedrock in New York, the associated environmental impacts of karst, and the means to protect New York’s karst water resources. The four geodatabases presented in this data release were compiled...

A soil-water balance model (SWB) was developed to estimate potential recharge and surface runoff for portions of the Cannon River drainage basin, southeast Minnesota, for the period 1995 through 2010. The model was used in the creation of Cannon River streamflow distribution maps, as part of the associated report, U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map 2017-3390 (http://dx.doi.org/10.3133/SIM20173390). This SWB model was calibrated using three independent hydrograph separation models: PART, Hysep-fixed, and Hysep-sliding method. The basic framework for this model was the statewide Minnesota SWB potential recharge model, described, calibrated, and documented as part of U.S. Geological Survey Scientific...

The algorithms and input data included in this data release are used to interpret time-series data (water-table altitude, precipitation, snowmelt, and potential evapotranspiration) over an observation period to estimate model parameters of a State-Space Model (SSM) of vertical infiltration to the groundwater table. The SSM model is coupled with a Kalman Filter (KF) to estimate system states (water-table altitude and groundwater recharge) over the observation period. This SSM and KF model is formulated for one-dimensional vertical infiltration and includes preferential and diffuse flow through the unsaturated zone to the water table. The analysis was conducted to demonstrate the application of the SSM and KF model...

The U.S. Geological Survey Data Series provides raster data representing an estimate of aquifer vulnerability calculated for each 30-meter raster cell. Depth to water, Recharge, Aquifer media, Soil media, Topography, Impact of the vadose zone, and hydraulic Conductivity of the aquifer (DRASTIC) are represented geospatially and used to calculate aquifer vulnerability. The DRASTIC approach to calculating aquifer vulnerability involves...

There is a growing interest in incorporating higher-resolution groundwater modeling within the framework of large-scale land surface models (LSMs), including new processes such as three- dimensional flow, variable soil saturation, and surface water/groundwater interactions. Conversely, complex groundwater models (e.g., the U.S. Geological Survey Groundwater-Flow Model, MODFLOW) often use simpler representations of land surface dynamics (e.g., surface vegetation, evapotranspiration, recharge) and may benefit from higher process fidelity and temporal resolutions in these inputs. This study investigates the potential of improving groundwater representation in LSMs and land surface dynamics in MODFLOW through coupling...

A digital representation of closed depression features overlying and adjacent to New York’s carbonate-bedrock aquifers. Includes closed depressions that are both natural and anthropogenic in origin. The features were derived from Digital Raster Graphic (DRG) images of scanned U.S. Geological Survey 1:24,000-scale topographic maps. A DRG is a scanned image of a U.S. Geological Survey topographic map that can be added as a background layer in a GIS. The closed depressions inventoried using DRGs represent features that were not included in the Digital Contour Database. The features were inventoried as points.

The California Basin Characterization Model (CA-BCM 2014) dataset provides historical and projected climate and hydrologic surfaces for the region that encompasses the state of California and all the streams that flow into it (California hydrologic region ). The CA-BCM 2014 applies a monthly regional water-balance model to simulate hydrologic responses to climate at the spatial resolution of a 270-m grid. The model has been calibrated using a total of 159 relatively unimpaired watersheds for the California region. The historical data is based on 800m PRISM data spatially downscaled to 270 m using the gradient-inverse distance squared approach (GIDS), and the projected climate surfaces include five CMIP-3 (GFDL,...

The algorithms in this data release implement a State-Space Model (SSM) of vertical infiltration through the unsaturated zone and recharge to the water table. These algorithms build on previous investigations available at https://doi.org/10.1029/2020WR029110 and https://doi.org/10.1111/gwat.13206. The SSM is defined by observed states (i.e., the water-table altitude) and unobserved states (i.e., fluxes through the unsaturated zone and recharge to the water table)and interprets time-series data for observations of water-table altitude and meteorological inputs (i.e., the liquid precipitation rate and the Potential Evapotranspiration (PET) rate). The algorithms first perform the estimation of the SSM parameters from...
