Graph showing trend adjusted water-level deviations in well G-3264A Graph showing comparison of smoothed average rainfall deviations and trend adjusted water-level deviations in well G-3264A

Figure 8. Comparison of smoothed average rainfall deviations and trend adjusted water-level deviations in well G-3264A. Fraction of agreement is represented as fa. Asterisk represents standard deviation below the long-term monthly averages of water level and rainfall. These values for rainfall have been multiplied by 3 so that the resulting rainfall values can be readily compared to the water-level results. This multiplication does not affect the fa.

Funding for the USGS to design and maintain this site has been provided through a cooperative agreement with the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). Water-level conditions are monitored by the USGS with support from Federal, State, and local cooperators.
