The Nevada Water Science Center is preparing for the future by developing new approaches to provide reliable, unbiased scientific information. The questions faced by policymakers today are more complex than in the past and often require input from multiple areas of scientific expertise. Our expertise is organized into the science themes listed below.
Aquifer Data, Analyses, and Aquifer-Test Reports
Search aquifer tests from Nevada, California, and Idaho through the Aquifer Test map interface and download aquifer test files.
Evapotranspiration Studies in Nevada
View and download data from completed and ongoing evapotranspiration (ET) studies in Nevada.
USGS-DOE Cooperative Studies
We provide hydrologic, scientific, and technical expertise to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to address environmental and scientific issues at the Nevada National Security Site and vicinity.
