| Abstract | The need for measuring the amount of frost in the soil mantle under the snowpack as well as the water content at key stations through the river basin is brought out as one of the many factors in stream forecasting. This problem is immediately associated with soil temperature and soil moisture at several depths below the soil surface. Measurement of these factors in connection with snow surveying and forecasting is being considered. |
