Most geologic \nstructures representing potential flow barriers were faults that were identified on the basis of length, \noffset, type of slip, orientation with respect to predominate ground-water flow directions, the location \nof springs, abrupt water level offsets, and hydraulic characteristics (Sweetkind and others, 2004). \nA subset of the potential ground-water flow barriers was incorporated into a transient ground-water \nflow model of the DVRFS (Faunt and others, 2004). This model is the most recent in a number of \nregional-scale models developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for the U.S. Department \nof Energy (DOE) to support investigations at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) and at Yucca Mountain, \nNevada (see \"Larger Work Citation\", Chapter A, page 8).", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9ED9GEZ", "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.551556d9-069b-4f67-8c63-9b8ce4896047.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_551556d9-069b-4f67-8c63-9b8ce4896047", "keyword": ["Amargosa Desert", "Ash Meadows", "California", "California Valley", "Chicago Valley", "China Ranch", "Clark County", "Clayton Valley", "Coal Valley", "Death Valley", "Death Valley regional ground-water flow system", "Esmeralda County", "Eureka Valley", "Franklin Lake", "Franklin Well", "Garden Valley", "Inyo County", "Kern County", "Las Vegas Valley", "Lincoln County", "Mesquite Valley", "Mineral County", "Mono County", "Nevada", "Nevada Test Site", "Nye County", "Oasis Valley", "Owlshead Mountains", "Pahranagat Range", "Pahrump Valley", "Panamint Range", "Penoyer Valley", "Railroad Valley", "Resting Spring", "Saline Valley", "San Bernadino County", "Sarcobatus Flat", "Sheep Range", "Shoshone", "Silurian Valley", "Spring Mountains", "Stewart Valley", "Stone Cabin Valley", "Tecopa", "USGS:551556d9-069b-4f67-8c63-9b8ce4896047", "Yucca Mountain", "flow model", "ground water", "ground-water flow barrier", "horizontal flow barrier", "hydrogeologic framework model", "hydrogeology", "hydrology", "southern Nevada", "transient ground-water model"], "modified": "2020-11-17T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-117.999214, 35.501620, -114.961993, 37.738519", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Potential structural barriers to ground-water flow, Death Valley regional ground-water flow system, Nevada and California"}
