The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB) and the Oka' Institute, constructed a Soil-Water-Balance (SWB) model of the eastern part of the Arbuckle-Simpson aquifer in south-central Oklahoma. The SWB model was used to estimate recharge to the eastern part of the Arbuckle-Simpson aquifer between January 2019 and December 2022 for...

This archive contains the data used to (1) summarize the hydrogeology and update the hydrogeologic framework of the Antlers aquifer in southeastern Oklahoma, and (2) develop a conceptual groundwater-flow model and water budget to estimate recharge to the Antlers aquifer during 1980–2022 as part of a hydrologic investigation (the model documentation report is available at https://doi.org...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), deployed RQ-30 surface velocimetry sensors (hereinafter referred to as “RQ-30 sensors”) made by Sommer Messtechnik to collect radar gage-height data, cross section area, surface velocity, learned surface velocity, discharge, and learned discharge at 80 streamgages located in stream...

The Edwards and Trinity aquifers are major sources of water for agriculture, industry, and urban and rural communities in south-central Texas. Both the Edwards and Trinity aquifers are classified as major aquifers by the State of Texas. The dissolution of the carbonate rocks composing the Edwards and Trinity aquifers results in distinctive landforms rich in both springs and karst...

The U.S. Geological Survey—in cooperation with the San Antonio Water System and the Edwards Aquifer Authority—used data collected during four different periods (March 1955–August 1964, October 1995–September 1996, March 2001–June 2002, and March 2017–October 2022) as part of a new study to refine previously derived relations between the altitude of the water surface of Medina Lake and...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the Harris‐Galveston Subsidence District, City of Houston, Fort Bend Subsidence District, Lone Star Groundwater Conservation District, and Brazoria County Groundwater Conservation District produced this dataset of groundwater‐level altitudes and groundwater‐level altitude changes in the Chicot and Evangeline aquifers (undifferentiated...

This dataset documents depth to groundwater measurements made from wells screened in the Chicot aquifer, Evangeline aquifer, Jasper aquifer, Burkeville confining unit, Catahoula confining unit, or a combination of these hydrogeologic units in the greater Houston area, Texas for 2024. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) prepared this dataset in cooperation with the Harris‐Galveston...

The Falcon Refinery Superfund Site (hereinafter referred to as “the Site”) is located in San Patricio County near Ingleside, Texas. The Site occupies approximately 104 noncontiguous acres that are divided into the North Site, the South Site, and a barge dock facility. Surface water drainage from the Site enters wetlands along the southeastern section of the property associated with this...

The Geneva Industries/Fuhrmann Energy Superfund Site (hereinafter referred to as "the Site") in southeastern Houston, Texas was historically used as a site for petroleum exploration and petrochemical production and is currently (2024) inactive. Previous remedies to clean up the contaminated site included the excavation and off-site disposal of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-contaminated...

The Garland Creosoting Superfund Site in Longview, Texas is an abandoned wood treatment facility that used creosote to preserve wood products between 1960 and 1997. Previous remediation activities at the contaminated site included excavation of creosote-contaminated soil and the installation of an interceptor collector trench and groundwater treatment system to prevent the movement of...

A previously calibrated MODFLOW-NWT groundwater-flow model (https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20205118) was used to determine the effects of climate variability under a range of future climatic conditions on groundwater resources in the reach 1 of the Washita River alluvial aquifer in western Oklahoma. The study area focuses on reach 1 of the Washita River alluvial aquifer; the entire Washita...

The karstic Edwards and Trinity aquifers are classified as major sources of water in south-central Texas by the Texas Water Development Board, and both are classified as major aquifers by the State of Texas. The Edwards and Trinity aquifers developed because of the original depositional history of the carbonate limestone and dolomite rocks that contain them, and the primary and secondary...
