Terrestrial essential climate variables (ECVs) at a glance Terrestrial essential climate variables (ECVs) at a glance
The Global Terrestrial Observing System, Global Climate Observing System, World Meteorological Organization, and Committee on Earth Observation Satellites all support consistent global land observations and measurements. To accomplish this goal, the Global Terrestrial Observing System defined 'essential climate variables' as measurements of atmosphere, oceans, and land that are...
Potentiometric surface in the Central Oklahoma (Garber-Wellington) aquifer, Oklahoma, 2009 Potentiometric surface in the Central Oklahoma (Garber-Wellington) aquifer, Oklahoma, 2009
A study of the hydrogeology of the Central Oklahoma aquifer was started in 2008 to provide the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB) hydrogeologic data and a groundwater flow model that can be used as a tool to help manage the aquifer. The 1973 Oklahoma water law requires the OWRB to do hydrologic investigations of Oklahoma's aquifers (termed 'groundwater basins') and to determine...
Geologic map of Medicine Lake volcano, northern California Geologic map of Medicine Lake volcano, northern California
Medicine Lake volcano forms a broad, seemingly nondescript highland, as viewed from any angle on the ground. Seen from an airplane, however, treeless lava flows are scattered across the surface of this potentially active volcanic edifice. Lavas of Medicine Lake volcano, which range in composition from basalt through rhyolite, cover more than 2,000 km2 east of the main axis of the Cascade...

Geologic map of the Chisos Mountains, Big Bend National Park, Texas Geologic map of the Chisos Mountains, Big Bend National Park, Texas
The Chisos Mountains form some of the highest ground in Texas, second only to Guadalupe Peak near the New Mexico border. The northern half of the range is mostly above 5,500 feet with Emory Peak the high point at 7,825 feet. The mountains are centrally located in Big Bend National Park between Panther Junction and Punta de la Sierra. Big Bend National Park lies near the diffuse border...
Potentiometric surface of the Upper Floridan aquifer, west-central Florida, September 2010 Potentiometric surface of the Upper Floridan aquifer, west-central Florida, September 2010
This report, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Southwest Florida Water Management District, is part of a semi-annual series of Upper Floridan aquifer potentiometric-surface map reports for west-central Florida. Potentiometric surface maps have been prepared for January 1964, May 1969, May 1971, May 1973, May 1974, and for each May and September since 1975...
