Characteristics of Wyoming Stock-Water Ponds and Dike Spreader Systems

Abstract

Based on information from all available studies, an evaluation was made of the characteristics and hydrologic processes related to Wyoming stock-water ponds and dike spreader systems. Capacity curves for various configurations of stock-water ponds were developed and maps of average annual evaporation, precipitation and runoff were compiled. The amount of water constituting beneficial use was examined and recommendations relative to water rights administration are presented.
