However, there are areas <br />of croplands in the high valleys, especially around Heber, <br />Morgan, and Randolph. <br /> <br />Modeling <br /> <br />studies concentrated on the Uinta Mountains. <br /> <br />As was shown in Figure 5.5, three different wind flow patterns <br />were investigated. Modeling results are sU'nmarized in Table 5.11. <br /> <br />For southwesterly flow, ground-based seeding near Heber <br /> <br />was simulated. <br /> <br />Under stable condi~ions, results were hindered <br /> <br />by ~odel time limitations (light low-level winds resulted <br />in limited downwind dispersion). Extrapolating the last plume <br />position further downwind suggests that the seeding plume <br /> <br />5-32 <br />
