Access Constraints | Use Constraints: This data set was digitized from a map published at a scale of 1:62,500 and represents the hydraulic conductivity polygons as reported by Beausoleil (1981). Hydraulic conductivity polygons represented at this scale are indicative of broad, regional trends and should not be interpreted as site specific. The hydraulic conductivity polygons were digitized from a photocopy of a paper map (19.0 inches by 17.5 inches) with a maximum registration root-mean-squared-error (RMSE) of 0.008 map inches (0.020 map centimeters) and 42.7 feet (13 meters) ground distance. Ground-water flow models are numerical representations that simplify and aggregate natural systems. Models are not unique; different combinations of aquifer characteristics may produce similar results. The hydraulic conductivity and recharge are closely interrelated. As long as these two model inputs are in balance the model has a small mean residual; it represents the natural system numerically. If the hydraulic conductivity is accurately known, the model can be used to accurately determine recharge. Likewise, if the hydraulic conductivity is poorly known, then the recharge will be poorly determined. Therefore, values of hydraulic conductivity used in the model and presented in this data set are not precise, but are within a reasonable range when compared to independently collected data. In most aquifers, hydraulic conductivity measurements made in wells or in cores will range over several orders of magnitude, even over short horizontal and vertical distances. Hydraulic conductivity values derived from ground-water flow models represent areal generalizations and do not reflect the large local variance in well or core measurements., Access Constraints: None. |
