This page treats all the reservoirs and lakes on the Colorado River as one
big reservoir. The contents in acre-feet of most of the lakes in the
Colorado River Basin are added together to show the current vs. total
capacity of the Colorado river. Heights, inflows, and outflows are ignored
since they are all unique to the individual reservoirs. Due to the large number of lakes on the Colorado river, compiling the data into charts and graphs takes between 20 and 30 seconds. |
