McCarthy, P.M., Jurgens, B.C., and Harkness, J.S., 2023, Inverse Model Data for: Salinity trends in a groundwater system supplemented by 50 years of imported Colorado River water: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9KUBQKM.

Summary

Data provided here describe the contribution of up to 7 different water sources to the major ion geochemistry of U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and California State Water Resources Control Board Division of Drinking Water (CA-DDW) groundwater samples within the Indio Subbasin of the Coachella Valley, California. The Inverse Geochemical Modeling was performed in the USGS's PHREEQC ver. 3 program and the results are discussed in the associated publication of Harkness and others (2023). Datasets include the major ion chemistry and model input parameters of 1593 samples included in the analysis, the median model results for each sample, and a data dictionary describing the tables. Analyses completed as part of this assessment relied on [...]

Purpose

This data release was compiled for the purpose of modeling and evaluating the contributions of up to 7 different water sources to the major ion geochemistry of USGS and CA-DDW groundwater samples within the Indio subbasin. The analysis was completed as part of a study of salinity trends in groundwater in the Coachella Valley, which includes discussion and interpretation of the included inverse model results.
