TOTAL ANNUAL FLOW (ac ft)
Figure 6. Regression lines of maximum May and June flow vs.
total annual runoff.
These regression analyses illustrate a number of important
points. First, the May and June regressions for the pre-Flaming
Gorge water years have higher maximum flows for any water year.
Also, the regression lines are steeper for the pre than the post
Flaming Gorge regressions. Second, the differences between the
regression lines is greater the larger the water year and smaller
water years have flows that are more similar to pre-dam flows.
