Digital model for simulated effects of ground-water pumping in the Hueco Bolson, El Paso Area, Texas, New Mexico, and Mexico Digital model for simulated effects of ground-water pumping in the Hueco Bolson, El Paso Area, Texas, New Mexico, and Mexico

The Hueco Bolson provides a substantial part of the municipal and industrial water supply of the El Paso area of Texas, New Mexico, and Mexico. Although the supply 6f fresh ground water in the bolson is large, about 10.6 million acre-feet (13,070 hm3) in 1973 in the Texas part of the bolson alone, the supply is being depleted. A two-layer digital model of the Hueco Bolson was developed...
