Depth to ground water contours of hydrographic area 153, Diamond Valley, Nevada
This data set consists of depth to ground water contours for hydrographic-area (HA) 153,
Diamond Valley, Nevada. These data represent static ground-water levels measured in
the HA during March and April of 2001.
These data were created as part of an effort to provide statewide information on water
table and depth to ground water for Nevada. Digital water-table contours from 38 published
reports representing data from 1947 to 2004 were combined to create a single statewide
data set. Water-table contours for Diamond Valley were published in 1968 (Harrill, 1968),
the depth to water has increased by tens of feet in this basin, however, so more recent
data were needed to estimate current contours.
This data set and the associated water-table data were used to develop raster based
models of water table and depth to ground water.
