Abstract

Field studies combined with color infrared photography and direct measurement of soil moisture and other hydrologic variables have shown that it is definitely possible to differentiate high and low soil moisture zones in a watershed. Furthermore, mapping of high moisture zones for the 1839 hectare Lowery Creek, Wisconsin drainage basin has revealed a pattern that is fully consistent with hypotheses concerning source areas. Examination of transmittance curves for high moisture zones indicates that source areas may be delineated on the basis of a certain transmittance ratio.
