A Soil-Water Balance (SWB) model of the alluvial aquifer in north Summerset, South Dakota, was constructed to estimate recharge and potential evapotranspiration volumes and rates for 2017-19. The model area included the northern part of the city of Summerset in west South Dakota along the east range of the Black Hills. The model area was defined as a rectangular area that included the watershed boundaries of the ephemeral streams near the Sun Valley Estates development in Summerset. The data release directories contain ancillary, bin, georef, model, output, and source folders with the necessary executable and input files for the SWB model used to estimate spatial and temporal variations of recharge and potential evapotranspiration.
