<br />antecedent soil moisture condition (AMC-II). <br />versus-drainage-area data from this analysis were <br />regression line computed for several frequencies. <br /> <br />The dlscharge- <br />plotted, and a <br /> <br />A regional curve was developed for snowmelt flood events using <br />streamgage data from 8 streamgages ih the area. Thelog-Pearsdn <br />Type III frequency distribution (as defined in WRC Bulletin l7-B) <br />was used with a regional skew weighted with each computed station <br />skew. The data were plotted and frequency lines were drawn. <br /> <br />The two regional discharge frequency-drainage <br />(rainfall and snowmelt) were combined using <br />probability equation: <br /> <br />area curves <br />a standard <br /> <br />P(comb)=P(snow)+P(rain)-(P(snow)xP(rain)). <br /> <br />This combined regional curve is proposed for studies along the <br />Colorado River tributaries from the De Beque vicinity to Glenwood <br />Springs, Colorado. <br /> <br />Peak discharge-drainage area relationships for Roan Creek are <br />shown in Table 1. <br /> <br />TABLE 1.
