Summary

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Extent Hydrogeologic Framework for National Water Census (NEHF) project is a multi-year effort (2022 through 2025) that will compile existing assets (approaches, data, software, etc.), develop a strategic plan, and implement an operational framework that is dynamic and multi-scale. Within the USGS, numerical groundwater-flow and solute- and heat-transport models have been created for a variety of purposes that include water-resource assessments, contaminant-transport evaluations, and water-management planning. These models are often supported by hydrogeologic-framework studies that describe the surface and subsurface distribution of geologic materials and their hydrologic properties. This [...]

Purpose

This data release is intended to support the NEHF project's implementation of an operational framework and to serve as a general interest inventory that can be used to quickly gather information on numerical groundwater-flow and solute- and heat-transport models published or developed by the USGS for particular regions of the U.S. and its territories and commonwealths. It is anticipated that this dataset will be updated as new models are published by the USGS or omissions are discovered.
