Summary

These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. This digital data set defines the subregions of the transient ground-water flow model of the Death Valley regional ground-water flow system (DVRFS). Subregions are used to more readily describe and evaluate the source, occurrence, and movement of ground water within and between the smaller areas of the DVRFS, which is an approximately 45,000 square-kilometer region of southern Nevada and California. The subregions, first described by D'Agnese and others [...]

Purpose

The subregions of the DVRFS were developed to evaluate and describe the DVRFS at a sub-regional scale. Specifically, the DVRFS subregions are used for analyzing ground-water flow by subregions, basins, and sections; and for describing specific areas within the DVRFS.
