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). A \nsubset of the potential ground-water flow barriers was incorporated into a transient ground-water flow \nmodel of the DVRFS (Faunt and others, 2004). This model is the most recent in a number of regional-\nscale models developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for the U.S. Department of Energy \n(DOE) to support investigations at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) and at Yucca Mountain, Nevada (see \n\"Larger Work Citation\", Chapter A, page 8).", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.6799499f-f84a-4727-9b4b-2525f9433f6c.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9BPIIWP", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_6799499f-f84a-4727-9b4b-2525f9433f6c", "keyword": ["Saline Valley", "inlandWaters", "Tecopa", "Spring Mountains", "California Valley", "ground-water flow barrier", "Nevada", "Nye County", "Oasis Valley", "Garden Valley", "Amargosa Desert", "Pahrump Valley", "Mono County", "environment", "hydrogeologic framework model", "ground water", "Sheep Range", "Coal Valley", "Clayton Valley", "Railroad Valley", "hydrogeology", "Chicago Valley", "Resting Spring", "Nevada Test Site", "California", "Sarcobatus Flat", "Franklin Lake", "transient ground-water model", "Esmeralda County", "Kern County", "Stewart Valley", "horizontal flow barrier", "Ash Meadows", "Lincoln County", "Inyo County", "Mineral County", "hydrology", "Stone Cabin Valley", "southern Nevada", "Shoshone", "Death Valley", "Penoyer Valley", "Eureka Valley", "Death Valley regional ground-water flow system", "Yucca Mountain", "flow model", "San Bernadino County", "Owlshead Mountains", "Clark County", "Panamint Range", "Mesquite Valley", "Pahranagat Range", "USGS:6799499f-f84a-4727-9b4b-2525f9433f6c", "geoscientificInformation", "Silurian Valley", "China Ranch", "Las Vegas Valley", "Franklin Well"], "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"}
