ConclusionsConclusions

Based on the analysis of precipitation data, we conclude that Based on the analysis of precipitation data, we conclude that annual precipitation in the Conchos basin is 425 mm/year.annual precipitation in the Conchos basin is 425 mm/year.

From the analysis of NARR, the evaporation in the basin is From the analysis of NARR, the evaporation in the basin is around 142 mm/year with monthly average of 11.84 mm. High around 142 mm/year with monthly average of 11.84 mm. High values were presented in June, July, and August.values were presented in June, July, and August.
