Description
The wind erodibility index is a numerical value indicating the susceptibility of soil to
wind erosion, or the tons per acre per year that can be expected to be lost to wind
erosion. There is a close correlation between wind erosion and the texture of the
surface layer, the size and durability of surface clods, rock fragments, organic
matter, and a calcareous reaction. Soil moisture and frozen soil layers also
influence wind erosion.

Water Features—Weld County,Colorado, Southern Part • Weiss USR Permit Water Features Map
• Water Features
This table gives estimates of various soil water features. The estimates are used
in land use planning that involves engineering considerations.
Hydrologic soil groups are based on estimates of runoff potential. Soils are
assigned to one of four groups according to the rate of water infiltration when the
soils are not protected by vegetation, are thoroughly wet, and receive precipitation
from long-duration storms.
The four hydrologic soil groups are:
Group A. Soils having a high infiltration rate (low runoff potential)when thoroughly
wet. These consist mainly of deep, well drained to excessively drained sands or
gravelly sands. These soils have a high rate of water transmission.
Group B. Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These
consist chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well drained
soils that have moderately fine texture to moderately coarse texture. These soils
have a moderate rate of water transmission.
Group C. Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist
chiefly of soils having a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or
soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture.These soils have a slow rate of water
transmission.
Group D. Soils having a very slow infiltration rate (high runoff potential)when
thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink-swell
• potential, soils that have a high water table, soils that have a claypan or clay layer
at or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious material.
These soils have a very slow rate of water transmission.
If a soil is assigned to a dual hydrologic group (ND, B/D, or C/D), the first letter is
for drained areas and the second is for undrained areas.
Surface runoff refers to the loss of water from an area by flow over the land surface.
Surface runoff classes are based on slope, climate, and vegetative cover. The
concept indicates relative runoff for very specific conditions. It is assumed that the
surface of the soil is bare and that the retention of surface water resulting from
irregularities in the ground surface is minimal. The classes are negligible, very low,
low, medium, high, and very high.
The months in the table indicate the portion of the year in which a water table,
ponding, and/or flooding is most likely to be a concern.
Water table refers to a saturated zone in the soil.The water features table indicates,
by month, depth to the top(upper limit)and base(lower limit)of the saturated zone
in most years. Estimates of the upper and lower limits are based mainly on
observations of the water table at selected sites and on evidence of a saturated
zone, namely grayish colors or mottles (redoximorphic features) in the soil. A
saturated zone that lasts for less than a month is not considered a water table.

Water Features—Weld County,Colorado, Southern Part Weiss USR Permit Water Features Map
• Ponding is standing water in a closed depression. Unless a drainage system is
installed, the water is removed only by percolation, transpiration, or evaporation.
The table indicates surface water depth and the duration and frequency of ponding.
Duration is expressed as very brief if less than 2 days, brief if 2 to 7 days, long if 7
to 30 days, and very long if more than 30 days. Frequency is expressed as none,
rare, occasional, and frequent. None means that ponding is not probable; rare that
it is unlikely but possible under unusual weather conditions(the chance of ponding
is nearly 0 percent to 5 percent in any year); occasional that it occurs, on the
average, once or less in 2 years (the chance of ponding is 5 to 50 percent in any
year); and frequent that it occurs, on the average, more than once in 2 years (the
chance of ponding is more than 50 percent in any year).
Flooding is the temporary inundation of an area caused by overflowing streams, by
runoff from adjacent slopes, or by tides. Water standing for short periods after
rainfall or snowmelt is not considered flooding, and water standing in swamps and
marshes is considered ponding rather than flooding.
Duration and frequency are estimated. Duration is expressed as extremely brief if
0.1 hour to 4 hours, very brief if 4 hours to 2 days, brief if 2 to 7 days, long if 7 to
30 days, and very long if more than 30 days. Frequency is expressed as none, very
rare, rare, occasional, frequent, and very frequent. None means that flooding is not
probable; very rare that it is very unlikely but possible under extremely unusual
weather conditions (the chance of flooding is less than 1 percent in any year);
rare that it is unlikely but possible under unusual weather conditions (the chance
of flooding is 1 to 5 percent in any year); occasional that it occurs infrequently under
normal weather conditions (the chance of flooding is 5 to 50 percent in any year);
frequent that it is likely to occur often under normal weather conditions(the chance
• of flooding is more than 50 percent in any year but is less than 50 percent in all
months in any year); and very frequent that it is likely to occur very often under
normal weather conditions (the chance of flooding is more than 50 percent in all
months of any year).
The information is based on evidence in the soil profile, namely thin strata of gravel,
sand, silt, or clay deposited by floodwater; irregular decrease in organic matter
content with increasing depth; and little or no horizon development.
Also considered are local information about the extent and levels of flooding and
the relation of each soil on the landscape to historic floods. Information on the extent
of flooding based on soil data is less specific than that provided by detailed
engineering surveys that delineate flood-prone areas at specific flood frequency
levels.
