Miller, B.V., Adams, R.F., Stocks, S.J., Wilson, J.L., Smith, D.C., and Kress, W.H., 2018, Waterborne resistivity surveys for streams in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain, 2017: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/F71J98ZQ.

Summary

This data release has three components for each of the eight stream lengths: 1) a geospatial dataset of the processed data; 2) tabular data of the processed waterborne resistivity profiling data and associated water-quality data; 3) tabular data of the raw waterborne resistivity data and associated water-quality data. In fresh water aquifers, the geoelectric resistivity of earth materials commonly has a positive correlation with hydraulic conductivity (Faye and Smith, 1994). Throughout 2017, continuous resistivity profiling data were collected, as a proxy for streambed hydraulic conductivity, along reaches of eight streams in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain of Mississippi, Arkansas, and Missouri. A total of 879 kilometers (km) [...]
