March Groundwater Level Monitoring

The most recent round of groundwater level monitoring took place in the Marsh and Rock creek watersheds on March 21st.  The complete history of measurements at each well is available through USGS.  By clicking on the Site ID for a particular monitoring well, additional information on the site and the history of data collection at that site can be viewed. 

Trends in groundwater levels in the Marsh and Rock creek watersheds vary geographically.  Over the last couple of months, some wells show increasing trends, some levels are decreasing, and others fluctuate month to month (see monthly groundwater levels since September 2011 from three wells below - the horizontal axis on these plots is time, the vertical axis is groundwater level).  To see how the groundwater levels are changing near you, explore the data via the USGS website.
