Identification

Abstract

This dataset shows the hydraulic properties of the Nanaimo Lowland aquifer, British Columbia. The study area is from Nanoose Bay to Deep Bay, designating a low relief coastal strip along the southeastern part of Vancouver Island, BC. The dataset includes hydraulic properties for 98 boreholes and water wells distributed in the study area. The data are from various sources and different calculating methods were used. The hydraulic conductivity is the most common hydraulic property for the study area. The values vary largely according to the hydrostratigraphic units.
