Tap waters were collected from major metropolitan areas of the western United States. Tap waters were sampled between 2012-2015 from seven metropolitan areas: Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana (CA), Phoenix-Mesa-Glendale (AZ), Salt Lake City (UT), San Diego-Carlsbad-San Marcos (CA), San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont (CA), San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara (CA), and Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario (CA). These areas represent some of the most populous in the US and employ a diversity of water management practices. Here hydrogen (d2H) and oxygen (d18O) isotope values along with strontium isotope ratios (87Sr/86Sr) and element abundances were measured. d2H and d18O of 2039 tap waters were measured following Tipple et al., 2017 (Water Research, 119, 212-224). 87Sr/86Sr and elemental compositions of 820 and 806 waters were analyzed following Tipple et al., 2018 (Scientific Reports, 8, 2224), respectively. The purpose of these data was to assess spatial, temporal, and climatic dynamics in isotope and elemental geochemistry of tap waters. We found that the isotope and elemental geochemistry of tap waters corresponded to the water sources (e.g., transported water, local surface water, groundwater, etc.) and management practices (e.g., storage in open reservoirs, mixing, etc.) for discrete areas within the larger metropolitan areas. ** For all details see the full metadata description at "https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.932952"!
