MODFLOW One-Water Hydrologic Flow Model (MF-OWHM) used to simulate conjunctive use in the Hatch Valley and Mesilla Basin, New Mexico and Texas, United States, and northern Chihuahua, Mexico

The Rio Grande Transboundary Integrated Hydrologic Model (RGTIHM), which was originally developed by Hanson and others (2020) (https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20195120), was updated and recalibrated to minimize the biases in RGTIHM?s simulation of streamflow and to incorporate new estimates of historical agricultural consumptive use in the study area. The RGTIHM was developed through an...

GSFLOW, used to run PRMS and MODFLOW-NWT models, to simulate the effects of natural and anthropogenic impacts on water resources in the Rio San Jose Basin and surrounding areas, New Mexico

The Rio San Jose Integrated Hydrologic Model (RSJIHM) is a sequentially linked, integrated hydrologic model utilizing the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (PRMS) (version 5.2.0) and MODFLOW-NWT (version 1.2.0) that was developed to provide a tool for analyzing the hydrologic system response to historical water use and potential changes in water supplies and demands in the Rio San...

Well site and construction data for observation wells in well clusters SF-3, SF-4, and SF-5, Buckman well field, Santa Fe County, New Mexico, 1987

This dataset provides well-site information and construction data for wells SF-3A, SF-3B, SF-3C, SF-4A, SF-4B, SF-4C, SF-5A, SF-5B, and SF-5C that were installed in the Buckman well field, Santa Fe County, New Mexico. The data include well-site information, borehole diameters and depths, well casing and screen diameters and depths, and annular materials and depths. The data were...

Data to Estimate Water Use Associated with Oil and Gas Development within the Bureau of Land Management Carlsbad Field Office Area, New Mexico

The purpose of this data release is to provide data in support of the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) Reasonably Foreseeable Development (RFD) Scenario by estimating water-use associated with oil and gas extraction methods within the BLM Carlsbad Field Office (CFO) planning area, located in Eddy and Lea Counties as well as part of Chaves County, New Mexico. Three comma separated value...

Passive flux meter data from monitoring wells and sentinel wells in relation to the Kirtland Air Force Base Bulk Fuels Facility, Albuquerque, New Mexico

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release contains push-pull test results, Darcy velocity data, and contaminant mass flux data measured in Albuquerque, New Mexico, using passive flux meters (PFMs) in monitoring and sentinel wells associated with the Kirtland Air Force Base (KAFB) Bulk Fuels Facility (BFF). Push-pull test results were used to correct Darcy velocity data collected at...

Darcy flux and PFAS mass flux in groundwater at Cannon Air Force Base, Clovis, NM

This United States Geological Survey (USGS) data release contains Darcy flux and mass flux of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) measured using passive flux meters (PFMs) in monitoring wells associated with the Cannon Air Force Base (CAFB) in Clovis, New Mexico. The measurements were conducted by the USGS in cooperation with CAFB, the Air Force Civil Engineer Center, AECOM (an...

Passive flux meter data from monitoring wells and sentinel wells in relation to the Kirtland Air Force Base Bulk Fuels Facility, Albuquerque, New Mexico

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release contains push-pull test results, Darcy velocity data, and contaminant mass flux data measured in Albuquerque, New Mexico, using passive flux meters (PFMs) in monitoring and sentinel wells associated with the Kirtland Air Force Base (KAFB) Bulk Fuels Facility. Push-pull test results were used to correct Darcy velocity data collected at large...

Data supporting the 2019 geomorphic survey of North Fork Eagle Creek, New Mexico

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release contains results from the 2019 geomorphic survey of North Fork Eagle Creek, New Mexico. The 2019 geomorphic survey was conducted by the USGS, in cooperation with the Village of Ruidoso, New Mexico, and is the third in a planned series of five annual geomorphic surveys of the stream reach located between the North Fork Eagle Creek near Alto...

Refined principal aquifer boundaries for New Mexico, United States

This polygon vector dataset, delineating principal aquifers in New Mexico, is a clipped and refined version of the original principal aquifers of the United States shapefile (U.S. Geological Survey, 2019).

Estimated groundwater elevations and standard errors from the application of kriging to median groundwater elevation data from 2010 in the Mesilla/Conejos-Medanos Basin, United States and Mexico

These data include 217 median groundwater elevations computed from compiled measurements made in the year 2010 within the transboundary Mesilla/Conejos-Medanos Basin, United States and Mexico, along with their corresponding interpolated groundwater elevations and standard errors from the application of kriging. Of the 217 median groundwater elevation locations, 109 were in the United...

Farmington Lake Sediment Descriptions, Total Sediment Chemistry, and Batch Experiment Chemistry

These datasets provide information about the physical properties, total sediment chemistry, and batch experiment chemistry (to evaluate element mobility) of sediment cores from the Farmington Lake reservoir in Farmington, NM. The sediment cores were collected in November 2019.

Hydrologic simulations using projected climate data as input to the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (PRMS) in the Upper Rio Grande Basin

The Rio Grande Basin Study (Basin Study) is a stakeholder-led project funded by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation to develop climate adaptation strategies to address the growing gap between water supply and demand in the Upper Rio Grande Basin in Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas. The role of the USGS in the Basin Study is to simulate historic and future streamflow using projected climate...
