"Ground-water flow model of the Sierra Vista Subwatershed and Sonoran portions of the Upper San Pedro Basin, southeastern Arizona, United States, and northern Sonora, Mexico" by Don Pool and Jesse Dickinson.

This report describes the ground-water model developed as part of the USPP initiative to better understand the hydrogeology of the regional aquifer system of the Sierra Vista Subwatershed. The model synthesizes the results of much of the science that the USPP has supported since 2000 including regional hydrologic analyses, ephemeral stream channel recharge and flow distribution information, riparian water needs, stream-aquifer interactions etc. The process of developing the model has led not only the scientists of the USPP, but also land managers, policy makers and others to a more complete understanding of the hydrologic system. The model also represents a tool that can provide insight to the potential hydrologic ramifications of water-management actions.
