Results <br />Sensitivity analyses were performed using this approach with representative data throughout the <br />basin to determine the effects of climate data and soil types on the recharge estimates developed. <br />Based on findings from the memorandum for Task 53.2 -Collect and Fill Missing Monthly <br />Climate Data, recharge estimates were developed for locations within the ground water model <br />area that represent the extremes of high and low annual precipitation over the period 1950 <br />through 2004. The locations of Edgewater/Lakewood, Fort Morgan, Greeley, and Julesburg <br />were selected to represent irrigated lands (Table 2) and Fort Morgan, Julesburg, and Kassler <br />were used to investigate non-irrigated lands (Table 3). Recharge under soil class D conditions <br />was not considered given that this soil class represents only 1 percent of the ground water model <br />areas. <br />Table 2 <br />Average Annual (1950 - 2004) Recharge Estimates for Irrigated Lands <br /> <br />Soil Growing Season <br />(A r throu h Oct) Non-Growing Season <br />(Nov throu h Mar) <br />Location Class PT <br />(inches) PQ <br />(%) PE + PS <br />(%) PD <br />(%) PT <br />(inches) PQ + PE <br />(%) PS <br />(%) PD <br />(%) <br /> [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] <br />Ed <br />/ A 0 27 62 36.2 1.8 <br />gewater <br />L <br />k <br />d B 12.3 5 73 22 3.9 62 36.2 1.8 <br />a <br />ewoo C 15 12 62 36.2 1.8 <br />F A 7 22 62 38 0 <br />ort <br />M <br />r B 11.2 17 71 12 1.8 62 38 0 <br />gan <br />o C 30 0 62 38 0 <br /> A 8 22 62 36.4 1.6 <br />Greeley B 10.5 17 70 13 2.8 62 36.4 1.6 <br /> C 30 0 62 36.4 1.6 <br /> A 9 20 62 37.6 0.4 <br />Julesburg B 14.5 20 71 9 2.7 62 37.6 0.4 <br /> C 32 0 62 37.7 0.3 <br />Task 64.doc 11 of 13 <br />
