Ester Dome Surface Water Field Observation Form							

"Spring in Alaska is an important season for hydrologic processes.  In general, snowmelt "							
"either evaporates, infiltrates into the aquifer, or runs off as streams.  Close observation"							
of these processes is important to hydrologists.  Please use this form to note occurances of							
"surface runoff, springs, or other surface flow at Ester Dome."							

"If possible, estimate the flow rate.  You can do this by measuring the width and depth of the stream"							
and then estimating a velocity (or speed) of flow.  Please include drawings of this calculation.							
Please include units of measurement.
