The Vamoosa-Ada aquifer is an important source of\nwater that underlies about 2,320-square miles of parts of Osage,\nPawnee, Payne, Creek, Lincoln, Okfuskee, and Seminole Counties.\nApproximately 75 percent of the water withdrawn from the\nVamoosa-Ada aquifer is for municipal use. Rural domestic use and\nwater for stock animals account for most of the remaining water\nwithdrawn. The Vamoosa-Ada aquifer is defined in a ground-water\nreport as consisting principally of the rocks of the Late\nPennsylvanian-age Vamoosa Formation and overlying Ada Group. The\nVamoosa-Ada aquifer consists of a complex sequence of fine- to\nvery fine-grained sandstone, siltstone, shale, and conglomerate\ninterbedded with very thin limestones. The water-yielding\ncapabilities of the aquifer are generally controlled by lateral\nand vertical distribution of the sandstone beds and their\nphysical characteristics. The Vamoosa-Ada aquifer is unconfined\nwhere it outcrops in about an 1,700-square-mile area.\n\t\t\nThe recharge rate of the Vamoosa-Ada aquifer was estimated as\n1.52 inches per year from base-flow measurements and\nprecipitation records published in a ground-water report. Most\nof the recharge polygons were extracted from published digital\ngeology data sets. The lines in the digital geology data sets\nwere scanned or digitized from maps published at a scale of\n1:250,000 and represent geologic contacts. Some of the lines in\nthe data set were interpolated in areas where the Vamoosa-Ada\naquifer is overlain by alluvial and terrace deposits near\nstreams and rivers.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P96TQ75L", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.d79c7955-48bf-4b03-9690-dfce004a9609.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_d79c7955-48bf-4b03-9690-dfce004a9609", "keyword": ["Ada Group", "Ada aquifer", "USGS:d79c7955-48bf-4b03-9690-dfce004a9609", "Vamoosa Formation", "Vamoosa aquifer", "Vamoosa-Ada aquifer", "aquifers", "environment", "geoscientificInformation", "ground water", "ground-water recharge", "ground-water vulnerability", "groundwater", "groundwater recharge", "groundwater vulnerability", "inlandWaters", "recharge", "recharge rate"], "modified": "2020-11-17T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-96.7807, 34.8562, -96.0003, 37.0010", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Digital data sets that describe aquifer characteristics of the Vamoosa-Ada aquifer in east-central Oklahoma"}
