Notes:
Southern boundary of the drainage basins are defined by stream gages thatwere placed below the recharge zone based on seepage studies
- Their locations define the pour points for the delineated watersheds
To increase accuracy, a special procedure was used
- The burn-in procedure was developed by the Center for Research in Water Resources (CRWR)
- A coverage of streams digitized from aerial photographs is burned-in to the DEM to force the grid stream network to agree more closely with reality
The areas of the resulting drainage basins were consistent with thosecited by USGS
