Subsidence and the San Joaquin Valley Matt Kruse San Joaquin Valley The Central Valley of California includes both the Sacramento Valley in the North and the Southern two thirds is composed of the San Joaquin Valley The Central valley is 400 miles long and 20 to 70 miles wide and extends over 20,000 square miles The valley is surrounded by mountains which include the Sierra Nevadas (East), Diablo and Temblor Ranges (West) and the Tehachapi Mountains (South) San Joaquin (sediment rich) The trough of this region is filled with sediments: Marine Sediments inundation by ocean Overlain by continental sediments from erosion of high mountains brought to the valley floor by streams More than half of the thickness is composed of fine grained sediments such as clay and silt as well as fluvial and lacustrine deposits These sediments are highly susceptible to compaction. These sediments also help to form a large and important aquifer system surrounded by mountains to deliver water to recharge the system Mining ground water Mining Ground Water for agriculture in the San Joaquin Valley has enabled the valley to become one of the most productive agricultural regions in the world. California Ranks the largest agricultural producing state in the nation It produces 25 percent of the nations table food on only 1 percent of the countries farmland. This mining has however led to land subsidence in the valley on an unprecedented level. Aquifer two parts The Aquifer used to supply irrigation through ground water pumping is composed of two parts: Shallow aquifer system which was used pre-development for agriculture Deep aquifer, which has a layer of Corcoran Clay, which confines it from the shallow aquifer and was used more in Post-Development. Four main causes of subsidence in San Joaquin Valley 1)Subsidence caused by aquifer system compaction due to the lowering of ground-water levels by sustained ground-water overdraft 2) Subsidence caused by the hydrocompaction of
