Description
D'Agnese and others (1998) developed a potentiometric surface to conceptualize the regional ground-water
flow system and to construct numerical flow models of the Death Valley region, Nevada and California. The
estimated potentiometric surface was derived using a gridding algorithm and interactive editing to produce
contours representative of the natural water-table conditions. Input data included the altitudes of lakes, springs,
and wetlands; water-level data from wells; and hydrogeologic information pertaining to areas of recharge,
discharge, and low- permeability rocks
