- Description:
- A 12-by- 12-foot square pressure pillow was modified by the addition of drains to collect the snowmelt from the pillow. This meltwater was collected in tanks and monitored by stage recorders. The daily runoff amounts from the catchment pillow was compared with the mean daily runoff from a 1580-acre watershed and one of approximately 80 acres. The runoff from the pillow provided a good measure of the timing of runoff from the two watersheds. A time lag of one day was found for the small watershed and 2 to 3 days for the latter watershed.
