The Application of HYMO to Study Areas of Southwestern Wyoming for Surface Runoff
Abstract
Ephemeral stream runoff and soil losses were estimated for small
study basins in southwestern Wyoming using HYMO, a computer model
that computes runoff and soil loss from precipitation and basin
characteristics. Computed runoff was compared to measured runoff
in one basin and a sensitivity analysis was made of the model. The
comparison and analysis pointed out critical input variables requisite
to reliable results. Runoff and soil loss graphs were prepared
for the study basins as indicators of the effects of changes in
range management practices.
