The article describes two small watersheds in Utah's Wasatch Mountains, focusing on their climate, geology, soils, and vegetation. The researchers studied precipitation, soil-water use, evapotranspiration, and streamflow to understand these catchments. The data collected will help calibrate the watersheds for future treatments. The drainage system of both watersheds has a main channel with intermittent side branches. The water sampled did not contain certain elements like Aluminum, Arsenic, Lead, and Mercury.
