Quantifying ground-water and surface-water discharge from evapotranspiration processes in 12 hydrographic areas of the Colorado Regional Ground-Water Flow System, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona.

This report documents the methodology and presents estimates of ground-water and surface-water discharge by ET from 12 hydrographic areas in the CRFS (referred to as the study area). Descriptions of the approach include remote-sensing techniques used to determine acreage and density of vegetation, selection of study sites, instrumentation, and methods used to estimate discharge by ET processes.
