gage during the 1983 field research program from
precipitation during periods of identified PETs and
from precipitation during periods when no PET was
identified.

tat ion at each gage during the 1983 field research
program from precipitation periods occurring during
identified PETs and from precipitation periods when
no PET was identified.
