| Abstract | A report of a study of ‘Soil Priming’ effects on seasonal runoff as related to the water supply forecasting on the Okanagan River, British Columbia. A soil moisture deficiency curve is developed from fall precipitation data and runoff data over a 14 year period (1923-37). Estimates from the curve are used to adjust the seasonal runoff in percent of normal flow. Statistical procedures are used. A table of data is exhibited and plotted graphs illustrate the effects on seasonal runoff.Discussion by R.E. Horton is included. |
