This data release contains a geospatial database related to a digital 3D hydrogeologic framework model (3D HFM) of the Eel River Valley groundwater basin, California. The geospatial database contains two main data elements: (1) input data to the 3D HFM; (2) interpolated elevations and thicknesses of hydrogeologic units as a cellular array, which are a spatial representation of the 3D HFM results. Three hydrogeologic framework models of the same extent and similar conceptualization but successively increasing complexity were developed to characterize the structure, thickness, and extent of the materials within the basin; data from each phase of model-building are contained in this data release. The Phase 1 3D HFM...
Heat can be used a tracer for monitoring seepage rates within stream channels. To estimate seepage using temperature, the diel amplitude and attenuation of temperature at several depths below the streambed must be monitored, as well as the frequency and duration of streamflow in a channel (Narranjo and Smith, 2016). Special subsurface temperature rods (TRODS) were developed to address these most of these needs (Narranjo and Turcotte, 2015). A TROD consists of discrete temperature iButton sensors within a .75 inch (in) diameter 1 meter (m) long sealed, water-proof PVC pipe to prevent water damage to the sensors. A TROD is installed into stream channel sediments and measures surface water and sediment temperatures...

Edwards Air Force Base (EAFB) is located in Kern County, CA, approximately 35 kilometers (km) northeast of Lancaster and 9 km south of California City. The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) is situated on EAFB, approximately 7 km southwest of Boron, CA. Release of contaminants from the AFRL facilities have contaminated local groundwater, which is mostly restricted to fractured granitic bedrock, but studies indicate that the groundwater and contaminant plumes have moved into alluvial deposits to the north and northwest (AECOM, 2014). The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) entered into a cooperative agreement in 2017 to develop a hydrogeologic framework model to help determine...

This dataset contains velocity and flow log data collected in 2004 for two Yucaipa Valley Water District (YVWD) public-supply wells, YVWD 55 and YVWD 56. Data were collected using the tracer-pulse method described in Izbicki and others (1999), in which a pulse of a rhodamine dye tracer is injected to a known depth in the well and the travel time of the tracer to a detector on the surface is measured. Velocity and cumulative flow are calculated from the dye-arrival times using methods described by Izbicki and others (1999). Flow for well YVWD 55 was calculated using the pump within the screened interval, which captured flow from above and below the pump intake. Flow for well YVWD 56 was calculated using the pump...

The San Antonio Creek Valley watershed (SACVW) is located in western Santa Barbara County about 15 miles (mi) south of Santa Maria, California and 55 mi north of Santa Barbara, California. The SACVW, is about 140 square miles and encompasses the San Antonio Creek Valley groundwater basin; From the late 1800s, groundwater has been the primary source of water for agricultural, military, municipal, and domestic uses. Groundwater withdrawal from pumping has exceeded the amount of water replenishing the basin, causing groundwater declines of more than 150 feet in parts of the valley between 1943 and 2017, and reducing base flow in San Antonio Creek at the western end of the SACVW. Agricultural water use (primarily for...

This data release contains digital data generated by the U.S. Geological Survey under cooperative agreements with San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District to characterize the three-dimensional hydrogeology of the Yucaipa groundwater subbasin, located east of Los Angeles in southern California. This dataset contains borehole lithologic data, and geospatial data of a three-dimensional hydrogeologic framework model (HFM).The borehole dataset is released as a series of .csv ascii files including (1) individual borehole location, and (2) downhole lithologic interval data derived from well drillers’ lithology logs and parsed to a series of textural descriptors. The geospatial data include polygon and polyline feature...

To determine aquifer properties in the San Antonio Creek Valley watershed (SACVW) single well air and physical slug aquifer tests were conducted on seventeen monitoring wells at nine sites beginning on August 7 2017 and ending on August 13, 2017 . For all tests either a physical or air slug was used based on the distance of the groundwater level from the perforated interval of the well. A physical slug was used if the distance from the groundwater level to the top of the perforated interval was less than seven feet (ft); otherwise an air slug was used. above the screened interval than a physical slug was used. Physical slug tests were used in order to produce enough change in groundwater levels to adequately characterize...

This data release contains digital data generated by the U.S. Geological Survey under cooperative agreements with Sonoma County Water Agency and the California State Water Resources Control Board to characterize the three-dimensional hydrogeology and water quality of the Russian River Watershed, located in the northern part of the California Coast Ranges section of the Pacific Border province. This dataset contains borehole lithologic and hydrologic data, geospatial data of a three-dimensional hydrogeologic framework model (3D HFM), and gravity data used to support development of the framework model. The borehole dataset is released as a series of .csv ascii files including (1) individual borehole location and construction...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) entered into cooperative agreements with the Santa Barbara County Water Agency and Vandenberg Space Force Base to conduct a hydrologic resource assessment and develop an integrated numerical hydrologic model of the San Antonio Creek Valley watershed (SACVW). As part of this study, the USGS developed a digital three-dimensional hydrogeologic framework model (HFM). This dataset contains a geospatial database related to the digital HFM, individual geographic information system (GIS) shapefiles from the geodatabase, and borehole data used to support development of the HFM in a Microsoft Excel workbook (*.xlsx extension). The geospatial database contains the following data elements:...

The Russian River Watershed (RRW) covers about 1,300 square miles (without Santa Rosa Plain) of urban, agricultural, and forested lands in northern Sonoma County and southern Mendocino County, California. Communities in the RRW depend on a combination of Russian River water and groundwater to meet their water-supply demands. Water is used primarily for agricultural irrigation, municipal and private wells supply, and commercial uses - such as for wineries and recreation. Annual rainfall in the RRW is highly variable, making it prone to droughts and flooding from atmospheric river events. In order to better understand surface-water and groundwater issues, the USGS is creating a Coupled Ground-Water and Surface-Water...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) entered into a cooperative study with the California Department of Water Resources and the Ramona Band of Cahuilla to characterize the hydrogeology of the Cahuilla Valley and Terwilliger Valley groundwater basins and surrounding water-bearing units, with the ultimate goal of developing a calibrated integrated hydrologic model to manage the groundwater supplies on a sustainable basis. A three-dimensional geologic framework model (GFM) was developed to quantify the structural geometry and distribution of water-bearing units in the groundwater basins, using borehole lithology and hydraulic information, geologic maps, and gravity-derived depth-to-basement information. This dataset includes...

Streambed instruments that measure electrical resistivity were constructed and installed along the main channel in San Antonio Creek and along tributary streambeds in order to provide insight into intermittent streamflow not recorded by traditional stream gaging stations. These instruments can record high-resolution temporal and geographic responses of streamflow to precipitation in intermittent streams. Streambed electrical resistivity sensors (SERS) and stream temperature, intermittency, and conductivity sensors (STICs) are small, cost-effective, instruments that can be installed (and re-installed) along stream reaches to measure stream intermittency. These instruments employ water contact electrodes to record...
