Hydrogeology Science in Oklahoma and Texas - Overview
Hydrogeology is the study of how groundwater moves and is distributed. At the USGS Oklahoma-Texas Water Science Center (OTWSC), hydrogeologic studies focus on regional groundwater assessments, focused investigations, aquifer delineation, and inter-agency science support.
HYDROGEOLOGY SCIENCE CAPABILITIES
OTWSC has expertise in a wide variety of hydrogeology science applications, including, but not limited to:
- Delineating and characterizing aquifers
- Determining groundwater sources, recharge, discharge, and mixing zones.
- Mapping geology and hydrostratigraphy
- Characterizing the connection between surface water and groundwater
- Collecting, processing, and interpreting groundwater-level and aquifer-sediment-compaction data
- Modeling
- Parameter and predictive uncertainty
- Regional conceptual models of hydrogeologic frameworks
- Integrated surface-water/groundwater
- Groundwater flow
- Saline and brackish water flow and transport
