摘要: Abstract Water balances for the Colorado River mainstem complex, Cienega de Santa Clara, and El Indio wetlands were calculated delta in Mexico period 1992–1998. Discharge complex was disaggregated into flood non-flood years, reflecting marked variability of discharge at Southerly International Boundary (SIB) delimiting United States Mexico. In agricultural municipal returns to below SIB contributed 180% SIB, but may not be sufficient generate floodstage required by native riparian vegetation.
