Alaska Snow Surveys And Federal State Private Cooperative Snow Surveys

Excerpt from Federal-State-Private Cooperative Snow Surveys for Alaska: March 1, 1969 Most of the usable water in western states originates as mountain snowfall This snowfall accumulates during the winter and spring, several months before the snow melts and appears as streamflow. Since the runoff from precipitation as snow is delayed, estimates of snowmelt runoff can be made well in advance of its occurrence. Streamflow forecasts published in this report are based principally on measurement of the water equivalent of the mountain snowpack.

Excerpt from Federal-State-Private Snow Surveys and Water Supply Outlook for Alaska: Mar 1, 1980 The snow course measurement is obtained by sampling snow depth and water equivalent at surveyed and marked locations in mountain areas. A total of about ten samples are taken at each location. The average of these are reported as snow depth and water equivalent. These measurements are repeated in the same location near the same dates each year. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Federal-State-Private Snow Surveys and Water Supply Outlook for Alaska Forecasts of streamflow have been greatly reduced from predictions made a month ago in the interior Snowmelt runoff from the Anchorage area is still expected slightly above normal, the same as a month ago.
