Thickness of the Gray Limestone
Aquifer, Southern Florida, 1998, WRIR 99-4213 figure 16 |
Abstract: |
The thickness of the gray limestone aquifer generally ranges from
30 to 100 ft. The thickness of the unnamed formation included within
the aquifer at its base ranges from 1 to 20 ft in seven test wells
where it is present. The aquifer is thickest in southwestern Palm
Beach, northwestern Broward, and southern Hendry Counties where it
ranges from 100 to as much as 130 ft thick. Local areas of similar
thickness are found in western and southeastern Collier in delineation
of water-bearing and less-permeable hydrogeologic units. County and
northern Miami-Dade County. Many of the areas where the aquifer is
thick correspond to where the altitude of the base of the aquifer
is low, such as in southern Hendry County, northwestern Broward County,
and parts of western Collier County. |
