Book Description
Excerpt from Precipitation and Streamflow of a Colorado Front Range Watershed Spring peak flows resulting from snowmelt occur with considerable regularity. Data indicate that these peaks are caused by melting snow on the slopes of the water shed below 8, 300 feet. Snowmelt water from elevations above 8, 300 feet contributes less to peak discharge and more to the characteristically high May flows, which make up approximately 40 percent of the total yield annually. During summer, streamflow is almost entirely from ground-water reserve. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
