File characteristics: One .zip file containing:
ChannelContours.shp contour layer file of the modeled basal elevations of paleochannels in the West Plains.
Channels – Raster data set that projects the paleochannels in 3D using ArcScene.
GeneralPaleochannelBoundary_18June2013.shp – a layer file with the basic outline of the paleochannels presented in paper.
Paleoaqui.shp – point file with locations for wells that encountered water in the paleochannels.
Sent_contours – raster data set that projects the upper contact of the Sentinel Bluffs Member of the Grande Ronde Basalt.
Paleochannels.gdb – Geodatabase with the 3D block models for each of the paleochannels used to calculate volumes of clastic fill material.
