| Generalized Configuration of the
Base of the Biscayne Aquifer in Broward County, WRIR 87-4034, figure
37 |
| Abstract: |
The base of the Biscayne aquifer are shown in this map. The base is
drawn on the bottom of highly permeable limestone or sandstone in
the Tamiami Formation that is virtually contiguous with overlying
rocks of very high permeability in the Fort Thompson Formation, Anastasia
Formation, or Tamiami Formation. In general, the Biscayne aquifer
is shallow, and the base deepens gradually in west and central Broward
county. However, the aquifer thickens, and the base deepens very rapidly
in the coastal area to more than 300 feet below sea level. |
