Electrical resistivity results from four regional airborne electromagnetic (AEM) surveys (Burton et al. 2024, Hoogenboom et al. 2023, Minsley et al. 2021, Burton et al. 2021) over the Mississippi Alluvial Plain (MAP) were combined by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to produce three-dimensional (3D) gridded models and derivative hydrogeologic products. The 3D models and products were first published using data from the earlier two AEM regional surveys, labeled with the year “2020” (Minsley et al. 2021, Burton et al. 2021). The 3D resistivity models and select derivative products were later updated by incorporating additional data from the two later AEM surveys, labeled with the year “2022” (Burton et al. 2024,...
Electrical resistivity results from four regional airborne electromagnetic (AEM) surveys (Burton et al. 2024, Hoogenboom et al. 2023, Minsley et al. 2021, Burton et al. 2021) over the Mississippi Alluvial Plain (MAP) were combined by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to produce three-dimensional (3D) gridded models and derivative hydrogeologic products. The 3D elevation grid was used to quantify across the MAP region 1) the occurrence and thickness of surficial (< 15 meter (m) depth) confining material, 2) the top and bottom elevation corresponding to the surficial confining material, and 3) a metric representing the degree of surface confinement or connectivity that ranges from fully confining conditions to high...
Electrical resistivity results from four regional airborne electromagnetic (AEM) surveys (Burton et al. 2024, Hoogenboom et al. 2023, Minsley et al. 2021, Burton et al. 2021) over the Mississippi Alluvial Plain (MAP) were combined by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to produce three-dimensional (3D) gridded models and derivative hydrogeologic products. To calculate estimates of streambed properties across the MAP region, e.g. the relative connection potential between streams and the adjacent Mississippi River Valley Alluvial aquifer (MRVA), new 3D grids of electrical resistivity were generated for 2 meter (m) depth layers and only shallow depths (0-30 m). One grid was made with the horizontal dimension aligning...
Electrical resistivity results from two regional airborne electromagnetic (AEM) surveys (Minsley et al. 2021, and Burton et al. 2021) over the Mississippi Alluvial Plain (MAP) were combined by the U.S. Geological Survey to produce three-dimensional (3D) gridded models and derivative hydrogeologic products. First, the base of the Mississippi River Valley Alluvial aquifer (MRVA) was updated using the AEM resistivity data, both borehole and manual picks, and a supervised machine learning algorithm. The 3D resistivity elevation grid was then intersected with the 2018 potentiometric surface and the new base of MRVA surface to isolate the saturated MRVA extent and generate estimates of the hydrogeologic framework and...
