Boundary of the area contributing flow to the Death Valley regional ground-water flow system, Nevada and California
This digital data set defines the boundary of the area contributing ground-water flow to the Death Valley
regional ground-water flow-system (DVRFS) model domain. The boundary encompasses an approximate
112,000 square-kilometer region and was based on a map of regional potential developed by Bedinger
and Harrill (2004). Where possible, the amount of lateral flow across the segments of the DVRFS model
boundary from (or to) the contributing area was estimated from ground-water budgets of hydrologic units
in the adjacent subregion (see "Larger Work Citation", Appendix 2). The lateral ground-water flow estimates
were used to support development of the transient ground-water model of the DVRFS completed in 2004
by the USGS (see "Larger Work Citation", Chapter F).
