Groundwater Discharge Area for the Diamond Valley Flow System, Central Nevada
These data were created as part of a hydrologic study to characterize groundwater budgets and water quality
in the Diamond Valley Flow System (DVFS), central Nevada. This dataset represents the groundwater
discharge area (GDA) in the DVFS. Vegetated areas within the GDA are composed of phreatophytic
shrubs with smaller areas of grassland, marshland, xeric vegetation, bare soil, and agricultural lands
where phreatophytic shrubs historically were present. Vegetated areas outside the GDA are primarily
composed of xeric vegetation and bare soil although very sparse phreatophytic shrubs may be present
on the outer margins of the boundary. The GDA was mapped in the summer of 2011 using field
reconnaissance and supporting digital data. Additional supporting field information was gathered in fall
of 2014.
