Hydrogeologic data of the Russian River Watershed, Sonoma and Mendocino Counties, California (ver. 1.1, July 2023)

Metadata Updated: October 28, 2023

This data release contains digital data generated by the U.S. Geological Survey under cooperative agreements with Sonoma County Water Agency and the California State Water Resources Control Board to characterize the three-dimensional hydrogeology and water quality of the Russian River Watershed, located in the northern part of the California Coast Ranges section of the Pacific Border province. This dataset contains borehole lithologic and hydrologic data, geospatial data of a three-dimensional hydrogeologic framework model (3D HFM), and gravity data used to support development of the framework model. The borehole dataset is released as a series of .csv ascii files including (1) individual borehole location and construction information, (2) downhole lithologic interval data derived from well driller’s lithology logs and parsed to a series of textural descriptors, and (3) calculated specific capacity from driller’s pumping tests. In addition to the borehole data, a folder containing drillers logs used in the dataset, but not in California Department of Water Resources database of scanned driller’s logs is contained within the data release for reference. The geospatial database contains a polygon feature class that is a 2-dimensional representation of the 3D HFM. The polygon feature class is a cellular array where each model cell has multiple attributes including XY location, and interpolated elevations and thicknesses of hydrogeologic units. The 3D HFM was constructed using methods from previously published reports. Gravity data collected in support of 3D framework construction are present as a “child” item of the main data release. Sources of geologic data, 3D HFM construction methods, and additional gravity data can be found in the metadata.
