Descriptions of more than 200 geothermal sites
based
on updated
information
from NBMG Bulletin 91, Thermal Waters
of
Nevada. A
linked list of the sites can be accessed by

link.
Individual site descriptions can be obtained by clicking on site name
in this
list or on associated hot spots on the interactive map. Links to
figures, photos, chemical data,
and detailed maps are included in many
of the site descriptions.

Photos
More than 300 photos are available and are sorted by geothermal site. The site descriptions also include a linked list of associated photos.
Databases
Gives references and describes the construction of the Access database of water chemistry, isotope, and gas data compiled for Nevada. Also gives file of geothermometers calculated using water chemistry in the Access database. The full Access database is available for download at this link, and smaller Excel files for individual geothermal areas are available through links on the interactive map or in the site descriptions.
Documents
Scanned geothermal papers, reports and various gray literature (also cataloged in NGDS). Also available as an Excel file.
