Potentiometric surface of the Floridan aquifer system in the Northwest Florida Water Management District, May 1985

The potentiometric surface map of the Floridan aquifer system in the northwest Florida Water Management District depicts the level to which water rose in tightly cased wells that tap the Floridan aquifer system in May 1985. The surface was mapped by determining the altitude of water levels in a network of wells and is represented on maps by contours that connect points of equal altitude. The northwest Florida Water Management District consists of about 12,000 sq mi, including all or part of 16 counties in northwest Florida. The Florida aquifer system is the principal source of freshwater for north Florida.

Potentiometric surface of the Floridan aquifer system in the Suwannee River Water Management District, Florida, May 1985

The potentiometric surface map of the Floridan aquifer system in the Suwannee River Water Management District depicts the level to which water rose in tightly cased wells that tap the Floridan aquifer system in May 1985. The Floridan aquifer is the principal source of freshwater for north Florida. The surface was mapped by determining the altitude of water levels in a network of wells and is represented by contours that connect points of equal water level altitude. The Suwannee River Water Management District consists of about 7,600 sq mi, including all or part of 14 counties in north Florida.

Springs of Florida

The first comprehensive report of Florida's springs, which contains both a story of the springs and a collection of facts about them, was published thirty years ago (Ferguson and others, 1947). Since then, much additional data on springs have been gathered and the current report, Springs of Florida, makes a wealth of information on springs available to the public. Springs of Florida, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Bureau of Geology, Florida Department of Natural Resources, publishers, and the Bureau of Water Resources Management, Florida Department of Environmental Regulation, is intended to provide sufficient background information for a lucid understanding of the nature and occurrence of the springs in the State.
