The role of the USFWS geographic information system in coastal decisionmaking The role of the USFWS geographic information system in coastal decisionmaking

Unprecedented demand on coastal resources in the 1980's has generated a need for valid information and analyses to support wise management of the coastal zone. The National Coastal Ecosystems Team of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service recently implemented a geographic information system to enhance its ability to analyze and display environmental information about the coastal zone...

Hydrology of the Jasper (Miocene) Aquifer in the Southeast Texas coastal plain Hydrology of the Jasper (Miocene) Aquifer in the Southeast Texas coastal plain

The Jasper (Miocene) aquifer is one of several important hydrologic units in the Gulf Coastal Plain. Because the Jasper aquifer underlies shallower aquifers in many areas, regional water withdrawals from the Jasper are not significant; however, it is capable of yielding 3,000 gallons per minute (200 liters per second) or more of water to wells in certain areas. The Jasper is underlain by...
