Summary

This data release contains waterborne gradient self-potential (SP), surface-water temperature, and surface-water conductivity data measured continuously along approximately 72 kilometers (km) of the Rio Grande over the Mesilla part of the Hueco–Mesilla Bolson aquifer. The geophysical measurements were made from a kayak between June 26, 2020 and July 2, 2020 during peak releases of surface-water in the range of 54 to 65 cubic meters per second from Elephant Butte and Caballo Dams upstream from the surveyed reach. The full geophysical survey extended between Leasburg Dam in Leasburg Dam State Park, New Mexico, and the Farm to Market (FM) 259 bridge in Canutillo, Texas. For data-collection purposes, the full survey reach was divided into [...]

Purpose

These waterborne self-potential, surface-water temperature, and surface-water data were collected to produce continuous profiles of voltage, temperature, and conductivity in the Rio Grande during bank-full flow conditions. The composite dataset is intended to provide a basis for making qualitative interpretations of variations of streaming-potential in the river across the Mesilla part of the Hueco-Mesilla Bolson from Leasburg Dam State Park, New Mexico to the Farm to Market (FM) 259 bridge in Canutillo, Texas.
