Data

The New Mexico Water Science Center collects, analyzes, and distributes data on a wide variety of water-related issues and resources. Much of our data are publicly available through the USGS National Water Information System (NWIS), but additional datasets and analytical tools are available here.

This data table includes the data source, identifiers for sampled wells, properties in the vicinity of San Juan Coal Mine where wells are located, sampling date, and results of groundwater chemistry analyses for arsenic, calcium, chloride, sodium, sulfate, sulfide and dissolved solids in milligrams per liter.

Geodatabase supporting the assessment of hydrologic resources and the potential effects from oil and gas development in the Bureau of Land Management Tri-County Planning Area, Sierra, Doa Ana, and Otero Counties, New Mexico Geodatabase supporting the assessment of hydrologic resources and the potential effects from oil and gas development in the Bureau of Land Management Tri-County Planning Area, Sierra, Doa Ana, and Otero Counties, New Mexico

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release presents the geospatial data used to assess the hydrologic resources and the potential effects from oil and gas development in the Bureau of Land Management Tri-County Planning Area, Sierra, Doa Ana, and Otero Counties, New Mexico. Publicly available data were used to assess these resources and effects and to identify data gaps in the Tri...

WaterQualityWatch -- Continuous Real-Time Water Quality of Surface Water in the United States WaterQualityWatch -- Continuous Real-Time Water Quality of Surface Water in the United States

WaterQualityWatch ( http://waterwatch.usgs.gov/wqwatch/) is a USGS web site that provides access to real time water-quality data collected in surface waters throughout the United States as part of the USGS mission to describe water resources. Measurements include streamflow (through WaterWatch) water temperature, specific conductance, pH, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, and nitrate.

WaterWatch WaterWatch

WaterWatch ( http://waterwatch.usgs.gov) is a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) World Wide Web site that displays maps, graphs, and tables describing real-time, recent, and past streamflow conditions for the United States. The real-time information generally is updated on an hourly basis.

USGS Gage at Embudo Creek - Dixon, NM USGS Gage at Embudo Creek - Dixon, NM

A site on the Rio Grande near the town of Embudo, New Mexico, was established as the first USGS training camp for hydrographers. See Publications: Embudo, New Mexico, birthplace of systematic stream gaging | The USGS at Embudo, New Mexico: 125 years of systematic streamgaging in the United States

Aquifers: Map of the Principal Aquifers of the United States Aquifers: Map of the Principal Aquifers of the United States

The areal and vertical location of the major aquifers is fundamental to the determination of groundwater availability for the Nation. The map, which is derived from the Ground Water Atlas of the United States, indicates the areal extent of the uppermost principal aquifers on a national scale.

Basin Characteristics and Stream Flow Data at Stream-gaged Locations in New Mexico and Surrounding Basins Basin Characteristics and Stream Flow Data at Stream-gaged Locations in New Mexico and Surrounding Basins

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the New Mexico Water Resources Research Institute (WRRI), identified basin characteristics and estimated mean annual streamflow for a regional study of 169 USGS surface-water streamgages throughout the state of New Mexico and adjacent states. The basin characteristics and mean annual streamflows presented here will be used to derive...

New Mexico Water-Quality Data New Mexico Water-Quality Data

Ground-water and surface-water quality is one of the most critical concerns in the State of New Mexico. The major water-quality issue in New Mexico is preserving the quality of public drinking-water supply. Water-resource planning and water-quality assessment require a nationwide database with standardized information for planning and assessment of water resources.

New Mexico Groundwater Data New Mexico Groundwater Data

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in New Mexico, in cooperation with the New Mexico Office of the State Engineer (NMOSE) and other Federal, State, and local agencies, currently monitors 1,800 groundwater wells dispersed throughout New Mexico in a 5-year rotation that have been measured continually since 1925; some well records go back even further.

New Mexico Surface-Water Data New Mexico Surface-Water Data

The U.S. Geological Survey operates and maintains approximately 7,300 streamgages nationwide, 126 here in New Mexico, which provide long-term, accurate, and unbiased information that meets the needs of many diverse users. The USGS collects the streamflow data needed by Federal, State, and local agencies for planning and operating water-resources projects and regulatory programs.
