Synopsis

This book is an invaluable compendium for anyone concerned with the management of the Colorado River Basin and its tributaries. It assembles in one place a wealth of streamflow data gathered between 1905 and 1906 by the US Geological Survey. Some existing stations were incorporated and many new ones established, extending the collection of valuable information the Survey had begun in 1894. This book includes data from many of these stations, along with discharge measurements, gage-height tables, and rating tables. It also includes data from international stations and basins, and features detailed assessments of everything from diversions for irrigation to dam operations. The book enhances our understanding of the relationships between variations in runoff and rainfall, as well as the impact of human activities, making it a crucial resource for water managers and researchers.
