<br />e <br /> <br />rf <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />The tables for Paonia Reservoir were generated by means of the area-capacity program ACAP85. <br />using the least squares method of curve fitting developed at the Denver Office. This program computes <br />area at 1.0, 0.1-, and O.Ol-foot increments by linear interpolation between basic data contours. The <br />respective capacities and capacity equations are then obtained by integration of the area equations. <br />The initial capacity equation is tested over successive intervals to check whether it fits within an <br />allowable error term. This one equation is used over the whole range that fits within this error <br />term. At the next interval beyond, a new capacity equation (integrated from the basic area equation <br />over that interval) begins testing the fit until it too exceeds the error term, The capacity curve <br />thus becomes a series of curves, each fitting a certain region of data. The final area equations are <br />obtained by differentiation of the capacity equations. Capacity equations are of the form <br />y - al + a2x + a3x2 where y is capacity and x is the elevation above an elevation base. The equations <br />for Paonia Reservoir are shown below.
