Note générale : |
A hydrologic study at Twin Falls State Park, Wyoming county, West Virginia, was made to determine how fracture systems affect the occurrence and movement of ground water in a typical valley of the Applalachian Plateau Physiographic Province. Twin Falls was selected because it is generally unaffected by factors that would complicate an analysis of the data. The study area was the Black Fork Valley at Twin Falls. The valley is about 3 milles long and 400 to 600 feet wide and is cut into massive sandstone units interbedded with thin coal and shale beds. The study was made to determine how aquifer characteristics were related to fracture systems in this valley, so that the relation could be applied to studies of other valley. |
