Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book focuses on large critical-depth flumes, automatic water flow measurement systems designed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for measuring runoff from ephemeral streams. After discussing the impetus for the development of the flumes amid the challenges of measuring runoff in semiarid rangelands, the author describes two such flumes installed on Walnut Gulch watershed in Tombstone, Arizona. The author explains that while the flumes have proven effective in accurately measuring both peak rates and amounts of runoff, their installation has also subtly altered the hydrology of the measured watersheds. The book concludes that these flumes are a valuable tool for hydrologists studying water yield and sediment movement, but that their impact on the natural systems they measure must be considered. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
