Abstract
Mean monthly time series of precipitation, runoff, atmospheric water vapor transport, terrestrial storage, and evapotranspiration for watersheds distributed over the entire continental United States were analyzed by harmonic analysis to compute Fourier coefficients (with first four harmonics) and explained variances. In addition, linear cross-correlation coefficients for 10 combinations of the five time series are computed. The observed spatial variation of these parameters should be useful to those faced with the formulation of statistical models for simulation and prediction applications.
