The effects of watershed treatments on the relationship between runoff peak and volume for the Beaver Creek watershed, Arizona

The relationship between runoff peak and volume was examined for ten sub-watersheds in the Beaver Creek, Arizona watershed. Least square analyses, linear regression, and coefficient analysis were utilized to evaluate the effects of treatments. Different treatments, such as clear cutting, uprooting,...
