Abstract

This dataset shows the hydrogeological contexts and aquifer confinement of south-western Mauricie. The study area covers the 17 municipalities of the Maskinongé MRC, Trois-Rivieres and Shawinigan cities and the Notre-Dame-du-Mont-Carmel municipality. The aquifer confining conditions of the study area were determined with consideration for the hydrostratigraphic units' superposition. The study area counts six hydrogeologic contexts: 1) free aquifer in fractured bedrock; 2) confined or semi-confined aquifer in fractured bedrock; 3) free water table in porous aquifer; 4) confined water table in porous aquifer overlaid by bedrock; 5) double aquifer composed of free water table in surficial sand, aquitard and confined water table in bedrock; and 6) double aquifer composed of free water table in surficial sand, aquitard and captive water table in glaciofluvial sediments overlying the bedrock.
