SUMMARY:The Importance of Base Flow in Sustaining Surface Water Flow in the Upper Colorado River Basin
DESCRIPTION:USGS Research Hydrologist Matthew Miller provided a briefing on a recent study describing how scientists used a new method to more accurately estimate the percentage of groundwater in streamflow\, finding that more than half of the streamflow in the Upper Colorado River Basin originates as groundwater. A model has been developed to assess the spatial distribution of base flow\, the fraction of streamflow supported by base flow\, and estimates of and potential processes contributing to the amount of base flow that is lost during in-stream transport in the Upper Colorado River Basin. \nStudy findings and resulting modeling tools can aid decision makers in effectively managing current and future water resources in the Colorado River Basin. \nClick here to see presentation slides. \nThis webinar was recorded. To access the recording please please email Pat Lambert at patlambert@wswc.utah.gov. \nThe report – “The importance of base flow in sustaining surface water flow in the Upper Colorado River Basin” By Miller and other was recently published in the journal Water Resources Research – click here to access the report. \nLinks to press releases and news coverage of this study. \nAGU Blog: http://blogs.agu.org/geospace/2016/05/09/half-streamflow-upper-colorado-river-basin-originates-groundwater/ \nNPR: http://kuer.org/post/study-colorado-river-flow-half-groundwater \nDeseret Sun: http://www.desertsun.com/story/news/environment/2016/05/10/salton-sea-concern-iid-colorado-river-talks/84212560/\n\nSummit County Citizen’s Voice: https://summitcountyvoice.com/2016/05/10/groundwater-a-huge-factor-in-sustaining-colorado-river-flows/
