Acknowledgments

We are immensely grateful to Professor Gray P. Merkley (Emeritus Professor of Irrigation Engineering in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Utah State University, Logan, UT, and Senior Supervising Engineer in the Natural Resources Consulting Engineers, Fort Collins, CO) for checking the relationships and his valuable comments on an early version of the manuscript, although any errors are ours alone.
