Reconnaissance evaluation of surface-water quality in Eagle, Grand, Jackson, Pitkin, Routt, and Summit counties, Colorado

Hydrology of area 54, northern Great Plains, and Rocky Mountain coal provinces, Colorado and Wyoming

“…These sites are usually established for short-term studies; no systematic data collection occurs at these stations. Reports by Britton (1979) and Britton and Wentz (1980) present data obtained at some of these sites in Jackson County, Colo.…”

Reconnaissance of benthic invertebrates from tributary streams of the Yampa and North Platte River basins, northwestern Colorado

“…7-11.8 9-10.3 Although dissolved oxygen concentrations decreased downstream because of higher water temperatures, the water at both sites was nearly always saturated or supersaturated with dissolved oxygen. Previous studies conducted on North Park streams (Scherschligt, 1975;Britton, 1979) found unsaturated dissolved oxygen conditions which are primarily due to low stream gradient.…”

“…Data collected by Harner-White Ecological Consultants, Inc. (1981) in 1979 showed increasing benthic invertebrate densities between sites F-2 and F-3. However, for 1981 the present study showed decreasing densities downstream.…”
