A shapefile was created that shows the approximate inland extent of saltwater intrusion at the base of the Biscayne aquifer in 2022 in Miami-Dade County, Florida. The approximate location of the saltwater interface is represented by the 1,000-mg/L isochlor at the base of the Biscayne aquifer. The term “approximate” is used here because certain areas of the map lack sufficient spatial distribution of monitoring wells to create a precise representation. The approximate location of the 1000-mg/L isochlor was identified using chloride concentrations and specific conductance data from groundwater wells. These data are provided in the child item, "Summary tables for the approximate inland extent of saltwater intrusion...
Tables were created to summarize well information, maximum chloride concentrations and specific conductance data sourced from Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority (FKAA), Florida Power and Light Company (FPL), MacVicar Consulting Inc., and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) during 2022. The summary tables here provide the information used to create the 1,000-mg/L isochlor in ArcGIS Pro. A table listing the USGS sites used to develop a regression between chloride concentration and specific conductance is also included in this release.
