MODFLOW-NWT model used for the simulation of the Cimarron River Alluvial Aquifer in the Pawnee Nation jurisdictional area in Payne County, OK, 2016-17
A three-dimensional, finite-difference MODFLOW 2005 groundwater model using the
Newton formulation solver (MODFLOW-NWT) was created for the Cimarron River
alluvial aquifer in Payne County, north-central Oklahoma to assess the impacts of
current groundwater withdrawal rates with respect to current and future groundwater
availability and the impacts to baseflow to the Cimarron River. To better understand
current (2021) water resources and possible future water availability in the Pawnee
Nation Tribal jurisdictional area, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the
Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma, compiled available
hydrogeologic data and developed conceptual and numerical groundwater-flow models.
The numerical model consists of a single layer representing alluvium and terrace
deposits within the alluvial aquifer model area. The calibrated model contains one
steady-state stress period and 24 monthly, transient stress periods for 2016-17.
Streamflow-capture analysis was applied to the steady-state simulation to identify
areas of the aquifer where base flows in the Cimarron River were most sensitive to
groundwater withdrawals. This USGS data release contains all of the input and output
files for the simulations described in the associated model documentation report
(https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20215073).
