摘要：

The U.S.G.S. WATSTORE contains chemical analyses for groundwater samples from the United States. Nearly 100,000 of these analyses are sufficiently complete to be of use in geothermal exploration. Through examination of about 500 analyses of samples from the Imperial Valley, California, plus 8,000 analyses from adjacent parts of the Basin and Range province, we have established normal ranges for the various chemical geothermal indicators and the criteria by which a geothermal water may be recognized. We used these criteria to scan WATSTORE for potential geothermal prospects in the Imperial Valley. -from Authors
