Hydrologic components of the Death Valley regional ground-water flow system were evaluated to support development of a ground-water flow model. The components evaluated are those affecting water budget: the distribution and volume of natural ground-water discharge, ground-water pumpage, ground-water recharge, and lateral inflow and outflow; the hydraulic conductivity values of the major hydrogeologic units; and water levels.
