Water-level declines began in parts of the High Plains aquifer soon after the beginning of substantial irrigation with groundwater in the aquifer area (about 1950). This report presents water-level changes and change in recoverable water in storage in the High Plains aquifer from predevelopment (about 1950) to 2015 and from 2013 to 2015.The methods to calculate area-weighted, average water-level changes; change in recoverable water in storage; and total recoverable water in storage used geospatial data layers organized as rasters with a cell size of 500 meters by 500 meters, which is an area of about 62 acres. Raster datasets of water-level changes are provided for other uses.Water-level changes from predevelopment to 2015, by well, ranged from a rise of 84 feet to a decline of 234 feet. Water-level changes from 2013 to 2015, by well, ranged from a rise of 24 feet to a decline of 33 feet. The area-weighted, average water-level changes in the aquifer were an overall decline of 15.8 feet from predevelopment to 2015 and a decline of 0.6 feet from 2013 to 2015. Total recoverable water in storage in the aquifer in 2015 was about 2.91 billion acre-feet, which was a decline of about 273.2 million acre-feet since predevelopment and a decline of 10.7 million acre-feet from 2013 to 2015.", "description": "Report: vi, 14 p.; Data Release", "publisher": {"@type": "Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "author": [{"@type": "Person", "name": "McGuire, Virginia L. vlmcguir@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Virginia L.", "familyName": "McGuire", "email": "vlmcguir@usgs.gov", "identifier": {"@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0002-3962-4158", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3962-4158"}, "affiliation": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Nebraska Water Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/nebraska-water-science-center"}]}], "funder": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Nebraska Water Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/nebraska-water-science-center"}], "spatialCoverage": [{"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "country", "name": "United States", "url": "https://geonames.org/6252001"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "Colorado", "url": "https://geonames.org/5417618"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "Kansas", "url": "https://geonames.org/4273857"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "Nebraska", "url": "https://geonames.org/5073708"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "New Mexico", "url": "https://geonames.org/5481136"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "Oklahoma", "url": "https://geonames.org/4544379"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "South Dakota", "url": "https://geonames.org/5769223"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "Texas", "url": "https://geonames.org/4736286"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "Wyoming", "url": "https://geonames.org/5843591"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "unknown", "name": "High Plains Aquifer"}, {"@type": "Place", "geo": [{"@type": "GeoShape", "additionalProperty": {"@type": "PropertyValue", "name": "GeoJSON", "value": {"type": "FeatureCollection", "features": [{"type": "Feature", "properties": {}, "geometry": {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[-106, 32], [-96, 32], [-96, 44], [-106, 44], [-106, 32]]]}}]}}}, {"@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": 38.0, "longitude": -101.0}]}]}
