Salinity Loads at 20-stations in the Colorado River Basin
Description
The U.S Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation), prepares a biennial analysis of salt loading at 20 sites on the Colorado River and its tributaries in Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico, Utah, and Arizona. These estimates can also be used by Reclamation to measure the effectiveness of the Colorado River Basin Salinity Control Program. Data are retrieved from the publicly available USGS National Water Information System database and provided by Reclamation in the form of .pdf files that are compiled into Excel spreadsheets and included herein.
