Soil Agricultural Groundwater Banking Index (SAGBI) - 2015

Soil Agricultural Groundwater Banking Index (SAGBI) - 2015

May 20, 2016 (Last modified May 16, 2023)

Uploaded by Conservation Biology Institute

Open in Map

Description:: The Soil Agricultural Groundwater Banking Index (SAGBI) is a suitability index for groundwater recharge on agricultural land. The SAGBI is based on five major factors that are critical to successful agricultural groundwater banking: deep percolation, root zone residence time, topography, chemical limitations, and soil surface condition. More details can be found in the SAGBI article in California Agriculture.

The dataset shown is the modified overlay (which is theoretical); it shows suitability groups when assuming that all soils with restrictive layers have been modified by deep tillage.

This layer was simplified to allow for processing and upload.
It is also clipped to a buffered Santa Barbara County boundary.
