Notes: | ||||||
The range of the A Term is equivalent to a width:depth ratio range from 4.86 to 78. | ||||||
Stream temperatures, air temperature, wind speed, and relative humidity are based on | ||||||
7-day running average values from records collected at the California Department of | ||||||
Forestry facility near Boonville. |
