Arroyo de en Medio : ウィキペディア英語版 | Arroyo de en Medio Arroyo de en Medio (Spanish for "in the middle creek") is a 〔U.S. Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. (The National Map ), accessed March 15, 2011〕 coastal stream in western San Mateo County, California. Arroyo de en Medio rises on the western slopes of Montara Mountain and discharges to the Pacific Ocean at Half Moon Bay at the location of the unincorporated community of Miramar at Miramar Beach. The watershed of Arroyo de en Medio consists of relatively permeable sandy soils capable of significant recharge to its aquifers, which supply considerable potable water to the local area. ''Arroyo'' is Spanish for creek; ''de en Medio'' means literally "of in between" but a closer more functional translation may be ''in the middle''. ==Groundwater== In the headwaters area, coarse grained decomposed granite overlies heavily fractured granitic based bedrock aquifers.〔(Balance Hydrodgeologics Inc., ''San Mateo County Mid-Coast Aquifers: Literature Review'', prepared for San Mateo county Board of Supervisors (2002) )〕 This upper pocket groundwater complex feeds down-basin alluvial fan deposits on the coastal plain. These alluvial fans exhibit some characteristics of a confined aquifer, but also respond to recharge from precipitation.〔Geoconsultants Inc., ''Annual report 1988-1989: Groundwater Resources, Half Moon Bay, California'', prepared for the city of Half Moon Bay (1989)〕
