Hydrologic data from Roan Creek and Parachute Creek basins, northwestern Colorado

Hydrologic data obtained from a comprehensive study of the Roan Creek and Parachute Creek basins are presented in this report. The purpose of this study was to inventory and appraise the predevelopment hydrologic conditions in these basins. The study was conducted from October 1975 through September 1981 and was one of several studies of oil-shale areas in the Western United States conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey. Data collected prior to October 1975 are presented, and references to other reports covering this area are given. Data collected include information from 58 wells, 286 springs, 14 streamflow-gaging stations and 24 miscellaneous surface water sites. Surface-water discharge, chemical-quality, and sediment data from streamflow-gaging stations in the basin are published in other reports listed in the references. (USGS)

Hydrologic data from Naval Oil Shale Reserves, Parachute Creek basin, northwestern Colorado, 1980-81

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)

Hydrologic data from Naval Oil Shale Reserves, Parachute Creek basin, northwestern Colorado, water years 1982-83

Data for water years 1982 and 1983, collected by the U.S. Department of Energy, Naval Petroleum and Oil Shale Reserves in the Parachute Creek drainage basin of western Colorado are summarized. These data are supplemental to data reported by Patt and others (1982) and Galyean and others (1983). Data from five streamflow-gaging stations, automatic sediment samplers, and two water quality monitors are presented. The sediment samplers and monitors are located at two of the streamflow-gaging stations. Climate data including mean, maximum, and minimum air temperature and relative humidity, daily solar radiation, mean wind velocity, and mean wind direction are reported for one site. Daily precipitation data are reported for three sites and snow-source data are reported for one site. (USGS)
