ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL Monday, March 30, 1987 CU People, Machines Work To Forecast Summer Water THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Fox said. The technique of correlating the depth and weight of snow in the mountains to the amount of water that will run off when the snow melts dates back to 1906, when James Church, a humanities professor at the University of Nevada-Reno, got interested in the idea. "He laid out snow courses on Mount Rose," Fox said, "and he developed the first snow sampling set. It was a hollow tube made out of steel, one piece 10 feet long. He would go marching up that mountain and take all kinds of samples." After a number of years of comparing snow depths on Mount Rose in the winter and the level of Lake Tahoe in the summer, Church was able to predict the lake level from the snow measurements.

"From there it kind of snowballed and we got into the snow survey program," Fox said. The Soil Conservation Service handles stream flow predictions in Alaska, Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Idaho, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming and Mon- to predict the runoff from the snowmelt. "Mother Nature's reservoir is the mountain snow-pack," said Stan Fox, the snow survey supervisor in the Soil Conservation Service office in Portland. "In the western United States, about 75 percent of stream flow comes directly from snowmelt." Farmers keep up with snowmelt readings. They decide how much to plant, and which crops, depending partly on how much water they can expect in the dry season.

Water system officials use the snowmelt figures to help set reservoir levels. "Whitewater rafters call us all the time for forecasts," Fox added. "Backpackers want to know the snow level and how long the snow will last so they can go camping." The snow survey dates from the late 1920s, Fox said, noting that in the mid-'30s the Dust Bowl placed greater attention on the West's limited water supply. "The country became very interested in water and trying to predict how much water would be available," tana. California handles its own surveys.

In Oregon, 147 snow courses are sampled by hand and 70 are automated SNOTEL short for Snow Telemetry sites. The snow courses are sampled each month from the first of the year until the end of the snow season, which runs until June at Crater lake. Here, the courses are sampled by park personnel, but the U.S. Forest Service, irrigation districts, ski clubs and snomobile clubs handle others. The Annie Springs course was established Jan.

25, 1929. Red and yellow striped poles mark the ends of the straight line that lies just out of range of the snowblowers that clear the road through the park. A two-person team samples the course, driving an aluminum tube into the snow. The tube is made of eight 30-inch sections that can be added on to handle snow up to 20 feet deep. CRATER LAKE, Ore.

Standing in front of a blue diamond marker on a lodgepole pine, Richard Fike raised a long aluminum tube and drove it straight into the snow, pushing and turning until he felt the end bite into the ground. "As long as you keep that thing moving, you're all right," he said. "If you let it stop, it's hernia city." Fike, a hydrologist for the U.S. Soil Conservation Service, was passing on a few snow surveying tips to some of the staff at Crater Lake National Park. Measurements of snow depth and weight taken near Annie Springs and at park headquarters here at Crater Lake help the agency predict how much water will be flowing in the Rogue River and other Cascade Range drainages this summer.

The park's two snow survey courses, where measurements are taken throughout the snow season, are among 1,500 in the West the service takes into account The weather report Deathsfunerals ARCHIBEQUE Mass of Christian Burial for Floripa Archibeque, 79, a resident of Algodones, will be celebrated this morning at 9:00 at Our Lady of Sorrows Catholic Church in Bernalillo, with Rev.
