Hydraulic properties of the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer in Texas: information for groundwater modeling, planning, and management Hydraulic properties of the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer in Texas: information for groundwater modeling, planning, and management 2003

Use of groundwater-flow models for prediction of future availability of water resources is standard practice. Having accurate hydraulic parameters for input into groundwater-flow models is critical to the generation of realistic local and regional water-resource management plans.

Groundwater availability in the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer in central Texas -- numerical simulations of 2000 through 2050 withdrawal projections Groundwater availability in the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer in central Texas -- numerical simulations of 2000 through 2050 withdrawal projections 1999

Between 1951 and 1996, groundwater pumpage from the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer, one of Texas' major aquifer systems, increased in the area between the Colorado and Brazos Rivers from approximately 10,600 to 37,900 acre-ft/yr, primarily as a result of mining needs.

Identification of sources and mechanisms of salt-water pollution affecting ground-water quality: a case study, West Texas Identification of sources and mechanisms of salt-water pollution affecting ground-water quality: a case study, West Texas 1990

Occurrences of ground-water and soil salinization are numerous in the Concho River watershed and its confluence with the Colorado River in West Texas and in other semiarid regions of Texas and the United States.

The hydrochemical history of ground water in the arid southeastern Hueco Bolson and southwestern Diablo Plateau was investigated by collecting soil-moisture samples from unsaturated siliciclastic bolson-fill sediments and groundwater samples from the Diablo Plateau aquifer, the Hueco Bolson silt

Numerical modeling of regional ground-water flow in the deep-basin brine aquifer of the Palo Duro Basin, Texas panhandle Numerical modeling of regional ground-water flow in the deep-basin brine aquifer of the Palo Duro Basin, Texas panhandle 1986

A conceptual hydrogeologic model of the Palo Duro Basin, Texas Panhandle, subdivides the basin into three hydrogeologic units: (1) the shallow Ogallala and Dockum aquifers (Upper aquifer), (2) the Permian evaporite aquitard (Evaporite aquitard), and (3) the deep, confined, underpressured, princip

Geology and Ground-Water Hydrology of Deep-Basin Lignite in the Wilcox Group of East Texas Geology and Ground-Water Hydrology of Deep-Basin Lignite in the Wilcox Group of East Texas 1986

Near-surface lignite resources in Texas, or those under less than 200 feet (61 m) of cover, are ample to meet the state's demand for lignite in this century.

Three-dimensional ground-water modeling in depositional systems, Wilcox Group, Oakwood salt dome area, east Texas Three-dimensional ground-water modeling in depositional systems, Wilcox Group, Oakwood salt dome area, east Texas 1983

A three-dimensional model was constructed of ground-water flow in the Wilcox-Carrizo aquifer system near Oakwood salt dome to facilitate understanding the hydrogeology around salt domes of the Gulf interior region and ultimately to evaluate the hydrologic suitability of Oakwood Dome for storage o

Ground-water hydraulics and hydrochemical facies in Eocene aquifers of the east Texas basin Ground-water hydraulics and hydrochemical facies in Eocene aquifers of the east Texas basin 1982

Eocene stratigraphic units in the East Texas Basin are composed of a thick sedimentary sequence (approximately 2,000 ft [600 m]) of fresh-water aquifers and aquitards covering an area of approximately 15,000 mi2 (51,000 km2).
