Map showing network coverage defined by R<sup>2</sup> analysis using index wells in the surficial aquifer system

Figure 25. Network coverage defined by R2 analysis using index wells in the surficial aquifer system. Wells STL-125, STL-41, and PB-689 have less than 10 years of data and normally would not be considered as potential index wells. However, few ground-water monitoring wells in these areas have additional data.

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.
