Abstract | A procedure is presented to show the relation of precipitation to runoff. When the relations are completed for one particular basin and characteristics of that basin are known, these relations cannot be use or applied to another basin. Each basin appears to be a law unto itself, although procedures can be duplicated. The relations and characteristics are found to be significantly different. In this study, five basins in the San Bernardino and San Gabriel mountains of Southern California are analyzed. Data are shown and the various factors are described in the text. Graphical representations are included to show the relationships.Discussions are included by R. L. Wing and C. B. Meyer. |
