Summary of Muddy Creek Surface Water and Sediment Transport Data 1984-1986
Abstract
Five streamflow gaging stations have been installed and are maintained
by the Wyoming Water Research Center (WWRC) on Muddy Creek, a
cold desert stream in southcentral Wyoming. The purpose of the stations
is to monitor change in the surface water and sediment transport characteristics
of the stream in response to riparian restoration efforts
currently being undertaken in the basin by the University of Wyoming
Range Management Department in cooperation with several state, federal
and private groups.
The objective of the report is to present 1) a general characterization
of the watershed, 2) a description of each gaging station, 3)
an outline of the methods used for field data collection, and 4) a
summary of all surface water and sediment data collected for Water Years
1984, 1985 and 1986. As the Muddy Creek riparian restoration program is
a long-term effort, this report is presented in loose-leaf format so
that data for subsequent water years can be easily added.
