Description
Water chemistry data from:
Mariner, R.H., Rapp, J.B., Willey, L.M. and Presser, T.S., 1974. The chemical composition and estimated minimum thermal reservoir temperatures of the principal hot springs of northern and central Nevada. U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 74-1066, 32 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr741066.
Water chemistry data was digitized for 59 samples. Reported attributes include:
Sample name, Type, Reported location, State, County, Latitude, Longitude, Location resolution, Location error, Temperature, pH (field), pH (lab), Boron (B), Calcium (Ca), Chloride (Cl), Carbonate (CO3), Fluoride (F), Bicarbonate (HCO3), Potassium (K), Lithium (Li), Magnesium (Mg), Sodium (Na), Silica (SiO2), Sulfate (SO4), Cations, Anions, Salinity, Charge balance, Specific conductance, Author comment, Digitizer comment.
Data was digitized from Tables 1 and 2. The following data and tables were not digitized:
Table 1 (partial): topographic map coverage.
Table 3: estimated aquifer temperatures.
Table 4: age and type of information near each spring.
