Land subsidence due to water withdrawal in the vicinity of Pecos, Texas
Abstract Analysis of repeated levelings conducted by the National Geodetic Survey indicates a zone of anomalous relative subsidence in the vicinity of Pecos, Texas. The subsidence appears to have resulted from the decline of water level due to pumping from unconsolidated stream-deposited alluvium of Cenozoic age. Maximum observed vertical ground movement relative to benchmarks outside the zone of pronounced subsidence exceeded 200 mm between 1934 and 1956. The decline in the water table was as much as 60 m during approximately the same period. The subsiding region is about 30 km wide and 50 km long.
