The Central Valley encompasses an approximate 50,000-square-kilometer region of \nCalifornia. The complex hydrologic system of the Central Valley is simulated using the USGS numerical modeling \ncode MODFLOW-FMP (Schmid and others, 2006b).  This simulation is referred to here as the CVHM (Faunt, 2009).  \nUtilizing MODFLOW-FMP, the CVHM simulates groundwater and surface-water flow, irrigated agriculture, land \nsubsidence, and other key processes in the Central Valley on a monthly basis from 1961-2003.  The total active \nmodeled area is 20,334 square-miles.  The CVHM includes complex surface-water management processes.  The \nhydrology of the present-day Central Valley and the CVHM model are driven by surface-water deliveries and \nassociated groundwater pumpage.  The Streamflow Routing Package (SFR1) is linked to MODFLOW-FMP to \nfacilitate the simulated conveyance of surface-water deliveries. If surface-water deliveries do not meet the farm \ndelivery requirement, the FMP invokes simulated groundwater pumping to meet the demand.  The surface-water\n network represents a subset of the entire stream network in the valley.  Even so, it covers about 3,000 kilometers \nof surface-water and is simulated using 208 stream segments that represent 2244 stream reaches, with 43 inflows \nand 66 diversion locations providing 64 routed and 41 non-routed deliveries.  Most of these inflows are regulated by \ndams and most of the deliveries are conveyed through an extensive canal network.  The routed deliveries are \nconveyed through the simulated surface-water network, while the non-routed delivery conveyance typically occurs \nthrough small canals or diversion ditches and are not directly simulated. Much of the surface-water diversion and \ndelivery information was compiled by the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) for 21 water-balance \nsubregions (WBSs) covering the valley floor (C. Brush, California Department of Water Resources, written commun., \nFebruary 21, 2007).  The CVHM is the most recent regional-scale model of the Central Valley developed by the U.S. \nGeological Survey (USGS).  The CVHM was developed as part of the USGS Groundwater Resources Program \n(see \"Foreword\", Chapter A, page iii, for details).", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9AQ750F", "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.60ee2793-e682-4d61-9a32-db7b3dc91c3c.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_60ee2793-e682-4d61-9a32-db7b3dc91c3c", "keyword": ["Alameda County", "Amador County", "Butte County", "CV-RASA", "Calaveras County", "California", "Central Valley", "Central Valley Aquifer", "Central Valley Hydrologic Model", "Central Valley, California", "Colusa County", "Contra Costa County", "El Dorado County", "Flow Model CVHM", "Fresno County", "Glenn County", "Groundwater Availability of the Central Valley Aquifer", "Humboldt County", "Kern County", "Kings County", "Lake County", "Madera County", "Mariposa County", "Mendocino County", "Merced County", "Monterey County", "Napa County", "Nevada County", "Placer County", "Sacramento County", "Sacramento Valley", "San Benito County", "San Joaquin County", "San Joaquin Valley", "San Luis Obispo County", "Santa Barbara County", "Santa Clara County", "Shasta County", "Solano County", "Sonoma County", "Stanislaus County", "Sutter County", "Tehama County", "Texture Model", "Trinity County", "Tulare County", "Tuolumne County", "USGS:60ee2793-e682-4d61-9a32-db7b3dc91c3c", "Ventura County", "Yolo County", "Yuba County", "geoscientificinformation", "groundwater", "hydrogeology", "hydrology", "inflow", "inlandWaters", "model", "surface water"], "modified": "2020-11-17T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-122.534010, 35.421456, -118.712159, 40.615889", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Inflow Locations and Magnitude Input Files to the Central Valley Hydrologic Model (CVHM)"}
