Basin Fill Sandstone and Carbonate Aquifers, Basin and Range (06)
Arizona, Nevada, and California
Comments on Geologic Parameters
06 Continuity:
Sand-body continuity of the Tertiary basin-fill aquifers is inferred from data in Planert (1996), and Robson (1996). Sand-body continuity in these aquifers is typically very high within each fault-bounded basin, but poor between basins because of the complex structure.
