Ground-water conditions in southern Florida

All data presented on this site are considered to be PROVISIONAL DATA and subject to revision pending further review.


Summary of Water-level Conditions in the Sandstone Aquifer of the Miocene Age, for the End of January 2008.


Below is a north-to-south listing of the water-level measurements obtained in the Sandstone Aquifer of the Miocene Age as of January 31, 2008. For surface-water monitoring stations, the daily reported value is the daily mean stage (water level). For ground-water monitoring stations, the daily reported value is the maximum water level recorded for the day.

For many locations, the minimum and maximum water levels reported on this page are the minimum and maximum for the USGS-collected data available electronically. Older records that are still maintained only on non-electronic media or by other agencies are not included in this estimation.


Data collected on periodic site visits, as of January 31, 2008.

Continuously monitored data, corrected for long-term trends, as of January 31, 2008.
