TY - Generic T1 - National forest water yield management in alpine and sub-alpine area T2 - 33rd Annual Western Snow Conference Y1 - 1965 A1 - Lonberger, T.E. KW - Watershed management AB - A program of barometer watersheds will provide the basis for: (1) determining the effect of management practices on hydrologic behavior, (2) developing and refining watershed precipitation, (3) actual performance. The Lake Creek Barometer watershed is described as an alpine and sub-alpine watershed. The proposed instrumentation of this watershed to measure hydrologic factors is explained. The water yield improvements which may be used on the watershed are outlined. These include improvements in water quality, water yield, and water yield timing. The barometer watershed program will determine the feasibility of using techniques originated by research on a project basis. It will also provide a basis for appraising cost-benefit relationships.
