Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Soil Moisture Depletion and Growth Rates After Thinning Ponderosa Pine
Snow depth and density data were collected starting about February 1 when peak accumulation usually occurred and at approximately 2 - week intervals until complete snowmelt. Soil moisture measurements were made with neutron-scattering instruments at 1-foot (30 - cm) intervals in the profile, beginning at the 6 - inch (15 - cm) level. The first reading each season was made as soon as possible after snowmelt and at approximately monthly intervals through the summer. The final reading each year was in the latter part of September when annual soil moisture levels are lowest. Precipitation was measured with one storage gage between November 1968 and October 1971.
