Simulated potentiometric surface contours at end of simulation (1998) in model layer 1 of the transient ground-water flow model of the Death Valley regional ground-water flow system, Nevada and California
These contours represent the simulated potentiometric surface at the end of simulation (1998)
in model layer 1 of the Death Valley regional ground-water flow system (DVRFS), an approximately
45,000 square-kilometer region of southern Nevada and California. The numerical ground-water flow
model simulates prepumping conditions before 1913 and transient-flow conditions from 1913 to 1998
after pumping of ground water began. The DVRFS transient ground-water flow model is the most recent
in a number of regional-scale models developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for the U.S.
Department of Energy (DOE) to support investigations at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) and at Yucca
Mountain, Nevada (see "Larger Work Citation", Chapter A, page 8, for details).
