Description
This digital data set is a compilation of reference points representing surface-water features,
ground-water levels, and topographic settings in Nevada that were used for the regional
ground-water potential map by Bedinger and Harrill (2004). The regional ground-water-
potential map was developed to assess potential interbasin flow in the Death Valley
regional ground-water flow system (DVRFS), a 100,000-square-kilometer region of
southern Nevada and California. To obtain an adequate network of control points,
Bedinger and Harrill (2004) also used regional potential altitudes derived from springs
and deep well data. A set of general guidelines was developed to relate regional
ground-water potential to these more readily observed surface and near-surface
ground-water levels and to hydrologic characteristics of ground-water basins in the
DVRFS (see "Larger Work Citation", Appendix 1).
