Abstract

Two years (water yr 1980 and 1981) of data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey for the U.S. Department of Energy, Naval Petroleum and Oil Shale Reserves, in the Parachute Creek drainage basin of northwestern Colorado are tabulated. Data were obtained from five surface water gages, two automatic sediment samplers, and two water quality monitors. Climate data include maximum, minimum, and average temperature and relative humidity, average wind speed and wind direction, and total daily solar radiation. Daily total precipitation is reported for three stations, and snow-course data reported for one site. (Author 's abstract)
