The study evaluated advective groundwater-flow patterns through groundwater-flow simulation and particle-tracking analysis in forward and backward modes. The groundwater-flow simulation and particle-tracking analysis had the following general objectives: (1)delineate zones of contribution (ZOCs) based on present conditions through backtracking of particles that are initiated at wells, and (2) by use of hypothetical simulations, determine hydrogeologic and pumping -rate controls on the size and shape of ZOCs.The model input and output files included in this data release are documented in the U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2017-5161 (https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20175161)
