Description
This map summarizes data from the Nevada Indicators of Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems (iGDE) database that was completed in 2019. In Nevada, groundwater is administered in 256 hydrographic areas, so this map shows how many of the unique GDE categories (i.e., phreatophyte communities, wetlands, springs, lakes and playas, or rivers and streams) are in each hydrographic area, with darker hydrographic areas indicating more GDE types. See the Nevada iGDE story map for more information.
