Summary

These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. This data release has been superseded by Simulated potentiometric surface contours at end of simulation (1998) in model layer 1 of the transient ground-water flow model of the Death Valley regional ground-water flow system, Nevada and California (also available at https://doi.org/10.5066/P98H3TVG) These contours represent the simulated potentiometric surface at the end of simulation (1998) in model layer 1 of the Death Valley regional ground-water [...]

Purpose

Contours in this data set were used to evaluate the spatial distribution of simulated hydraulic gradients and the potentiometric surface at the end of simulation (1998) in model layer 1 of the DVRFS numerical model. The simulated contours were also used to compare to alternate interpretations of the potentiometric surface altitudes, gradients, and/or observed data. Model output was produced using MODFLOW-2000, the USGS 3D finite-difference code used to simulate ground-water flow in the DVRFS.
