Model grid and infiltration values for the transient ground-water flow model, Death Valley regional ground-water flow system, Nevada and California

Metadata Updated: November 26, 2025

This digital data set defines the model grid and infiltration values simulated in the transient ground-water flow model of the Death Valley regional ground-water flow system (DVRFS), an approximately 45,000 square-kilometer region of southern Nevada and California. The DVRFS model grid is north-south-oriented, consists of 194 rows and 160 columns, and has a constant grid-cell spacing of 1,500 meters. Model cells are attributed with infiltration rates that are used as a component of recharge in the flow model. The DVRFS transient ground-water flow model is one of the most recent in a number of regional-scale models developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to support investigations at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) and at Yucca Mountain, Nevada (see "Larger Work Citation", Chapter A, page 8).
