Effects of vegetative manipulations on sediment concentrations in north-central Arizona
The sediment rating curve (SRC) method was used to study the effects of vegetative manipulations on sediment concentrations on the Beaver Creek watersheds of north-central Arizona. A linear model was best in the analysis of streamflow-sediment relationships. The corrected linear model eliminated som...
