<br />001277 <br /> <br />lag <br /> <br />The amount of time in months between <br />the time water is diverted and the <br />time it returns to the river as a <br />return flow. <br /> <br />Lee Ferry <br /> <br />An imaginary point 1 mile downstream <br />of the confluence of the Colorado <br />and paria Rivers, specified in the <br />Compact. Also known as the Compact <br />Point. <br /> <br />Lees Ferry <br /> <br />A flow gauging station on the <br />Colorado River just upstream of the <br />confluence with the paria River. <br /> <br />(the) model <br /> <br />The Colorado River simulation Model. <br /> <br />reach number <br /> <br />A length of river used in the model, <br />consisting of up to 20 sequence <br />points. <br /> <br />The descriptive number that identi- <br />ies a reach. <br /> <br />reach <br /> <br />return flow <br /> <br />An inflow created by the unused por- <br />tion of a diversion. <br /> <br />run or trace <br /> <br />A roadel run made with the modeling <br />period set equal to some period on <br />the hydrology tape. Each new run or <br />trac? sets the modeling period equal <br />to a ~ifferent period on the hydrol- <br />ogy input file. <br /> <br />sequence number <br /> <br />A positive sequential number as- <br />signed to each sequence point in a <br />reach, moving downstream. Numbers <br />begin with I in each reach. <br /> <br />sequence point <br /> <br />One of the possible 20 points that <br />make up a reach. Each sequence <br />point represents either an inflow, <br />demand, or reservoir. Each sequence <br />point is assigned both a sequence <br />number and either an inflow sequence <br />index, demand sequence index, or a <br />zero for a reservoir. <br /> <br />total inflow <br /> <br />A monthly total inflow is the sum of <br />all inflows into a reach for a given <br />month, summed for the spring runoff <br />prediction. <br /> <br />water year <br /> <br />A year beginning October I. <br /> <br />3 <br />
