Synopsis
Excerpt from Availability of Ground Water in the Albuquerque Area, Bernalillo and Sandoval Counties, New Mexico
In the course of this investigation, records were obtained for 118 irrigation wells, 107 industrial wells, 79 municipally owned wells, and 106 wells and springs used for domestic and stock purposes (tables 1, 2, 3, and Most of the wells in the area that discharge more than 200 gpm were included in the inventory. Many drive-point irrigation wells of low capacity were recorded, but detailed data on these wells were not collected. Tenants, well owners, and drillers in the area were interviewed. Available well logs and detailed hydrologic and geologic information were collected and studied. Depths to water and depths of wells were measured with steel tapes, and the rates of pump discharge were either estimated or measured. Depths to water were measured periodically in 38 wells to observe fluctua tions of the water table. Records were obtained from six recording gages operated by the city of Albuquerque on wells in the city well fields that were specifically constructed as observation wells. Drawdown and recovery of water levels in several pumped wells were measured to determine the aquifer characteristics.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the availability of groundwater in the Albuquerque area of New Mexico, and its relevance to the region's urban development. It is part of a larger historical and scientific narrative, which focuses on the development of the region's water resources and the establishment of human populations in arid Southwestern landscapes. The author presents a broad, technical account of the local geology, the physical and chemical properties of the groundwater, and its role in sustaining human activity in the area. By examining the historical record and employing techniques from geology and hydrology, the author demonstrates that the availability of groundwater has been a critical factor in the rise of Albuquerque and surrounding agricultural communities. In the process, the book offers generalizable insights into the challenges and opportunities that arise when human communities emerge in arid environments.
