CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

Problem Statement

The Southern High Plains region of Texas and New Mexico contains more than

20,000 small, circular depressions called playa lakes or playas. These playas create a

unique physiographic phenomenon where many watersheds in the region are small closed

basins in which no outlet from the watershed is present (Gustavson et al., 1994). The

presence of playa lakes implies that runoff from the contributing watershed is focused

into the playa lake, including chemical constituents associated with the runoff. Also, the

fate of the runoff has only two possibilities, evaporation or infiltration. The chemical

constituents are therefore treated naturally in playa waters, bound to playa sediments, or

transported to the groundwater flow system.

At one time, researchers believed that evaporation, rather than infiltration,

controlled the fate of water entering playas in the High Plains. This includes work done

by C V. Theis (1937) and the Texas Water Development Board (1965). However, more

recent investigations are revealing that not only is infiltration significant in playa lakes, it

is the primary source of recharge to the groundwater (Wood and Osterkamp, 1984b;

Wood and Sanford, 1994; Wood, Rainwater, and Thompson, 1997).

In an urban environment, such as the city of Lubbock, the existence of playa lakes

is essential to storm drainage as well as recreation (Hertel and Smith, 1994). Little

information has been collected concerning the hydrology of these urban playas, some of

1

Page 12: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

which have altered bed sediments due to development. In addition, rising groundwater

levels and runoff quality concerns are major considerations for city engineers and

administrators as well as researchers. Detailed investigations of urban playas will be a

valuable tool for determining the interaction of stormwater runoff and groundwater flow

systems.

Background

Hydrology in the City of Lubbock

The city of Lubbock is located on the South High Plains of West Texas,

approximately 320 miles west from Dallas, 120 miles south from Amarillo, and 60 miles

east from the New Mexico state line (Figure 1.1). The city contains about 100 square

miles of area, and about 100 playa lakes exist within the city limits (Hertel and Smith,

1994).

The city has little topographic relief, therefore, storm drainage has been a major

issue for many years. In general, runoff from each small watershed within the city drains

to a playa lake where all stormwater runoff is collected and allowed to evaporate or

infiltrate into the ground. Often, these playas are also used as recreational facilities in

parks throughout the city. In addition, some of the playas are allowed to "spill" to a

downstream playa when filled to an overflow crest elevation. These overflow playas are

typically located on the south side of the city and consist of many of the newer or

modified playas.

Page 13: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

Figure 1.1: Location of Lubbock, Texas

Page 14: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

The City of Lubbock allows three different methods for determining rainfall-

runoff relationships for design and analysis. For drainage areas of up to 200 acres, where

only the peak discharge is of concern, the Rational Method may be selected. For systems

up to three square miles or where runoff volumes are needed, the graphical/tabular

hydrograph method, TR-55, may be used. Otherwise, the unit hydrograph method, using

HEC-1 or TR-20, should be applied. For the hydrograph methods, the Natural Resources

Conservation Service (NRCS) curve number procedure should also be used. These

methods are described in detail in the City of Lubbock, Texas Drainage Criteria Manual

(1997).

The simplest of these methods is the Rational Method, which is used to calculate

the peak discharge of small watersheds. It will be discussed in more detail in Chapter III,

Instrumentation and Methodology; however, it should be noted that the runoff coefficient

in the equation is the ratio of runoff to rainfall for the drainage area considered.

Hydrologic Budgets of Playa Lakes

Playa lakes are unique structures for many reasons. First, infiltration through

playa bottom sediments is one of the mechanisms, if not the primary mechanism, through

which pollutants might be transported from surface runoff to the groundwater. Also,

infiltration is a principal means by which recharge occurs to the Ogallala aquifer, the

aquifer underlying the region where playa lakes are located. Therefore, the quantity of

water and disbursement of chemical constituents being fed to the groundwater can be

investigated by studying infiltration.

Page 15: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

Playa lakes offer an excellent opportunity for investigating these mechanics. A

water balance for a playa lake is easy to construct because all surface runoff from the

contributing watershed is trapped by the lake and in general, no outflow occurs from the

playa. The infiltration can then be inferred with relative ease. These estimates of

infiltration are more accurate than direct measurements from devices such as

infiltrometers. The entire playa lake acts as an infiltrometer that can take into account

each of the more localized infiltration rates that could otherwise be obtained.

Objectives

Three main objectives exist for the development of this project. First, both

hydrologic and meteorologic data continue to be collected that are relevant to the

estimation of the water budget of six playa lakes in Lubbock, Texas. Second, the

collected data are used to compute water balances for the playas, obtaining evaporation

and infiltration rates for each. Analysis of these data will allow conclusions and

recommendations to be drawn about urban playa lakes. Last, runoff events are used to

investigate other aspects of the hydrology of urban playas, including calculating runoff

coefficients for the six watersheds.

CHAPTER II

LITERATURE REVIEW

Ogallala Aquifer and the Llano Estacado

The most significant groundwater formation in the central United States is the

High Plains aquifer, or commonly referred to as the Ogallala aquifer. This aquifer

stretches over 174,000 square miles of the High Plains underneath the states of Texas,

Oklahoma, New Mexico, Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, and South Dakota.

The Ogallala supplies approximately 30 percent of the United States irrigated

groundwater (Weeks and Gutentag, 1984). Irrigation has been taking place since the

1940s from the Ogallala, and during that time researchers have noticed a steady decline in

the water table.

The southern portion of the Ogallala underlies the South High Plains of Texas and

New Mexico. This region is commonly called the Llano Estacado. It is bounded by the

Edwards Plateau to the south, the Caprock Escarpment to the east, the Canadian River to

the north, and the Pecos River Valley to the west (Wood and Sanford, 1994) (Figure 2.1).

The Llano Estacado is characterized by a common drainage system, the playa lakes.

More than 20,000 playas exist in the region, and they are usually small, shallow,

internally drained, and roughly circular to oval depressions (Gustavson et al., 1994).

The development of playa basins has been attributed to numerous different factors

over the years from animal activity (Gilbert, 1895) to dissolution of soil carbonate and

piping of sediment into the subsurface (Wood and Osterkamp, 1984a). The soil of these

Figure 2.1: The Llano Estacado or Southern High Plams Region

Page 18: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

playa lakes typically contain clay and silt sediments. For this reason and others, the

initial belief was that playa lakes did not contribute recharge to the Ogallala (Wood and

Sanford, 1994).

The climate of the region is semi-arid and precipitation varies from approximately

14 inches/year (356 mm/yr) in the southwest to about 20 inches/year (508 mm/yr) in the

northeast. In Lubbock, the average annual rainfall is about 18 inches (457 mm) (Larkin

and Bomar, 1983). The average annual evaporation is approximately 77 inches (1950

mm) (High Plains Associates, 1982). The Llano Estacado has little surface-water

outflow. Over 98 percent of the area is drained internally to the playa lakes (Osterkamp

and Wood, 1984). What little surface-water outflow that occurs runs to one of 30 or so

larger, irregular shaped, saline lake basins.

Playa Lake Hydrology

Because playa lakes play such an important role in the Llano Estacado, including

1,006 playas in Lubbock County, it is essential that they be understood. However, playa

lake hydrology is a relatively new research field. Playas are ephemeral water bodies

located within topographically closed basins. They have hydric soils, provide exclusive

runoff catchment areas, and serve as vital habitat for migratory fowl (Zartman et al.,

1994).

Infiltration is one of the processes that takes place in playa lakes that is of major

interest. "Infiltration refers to the entry of water into a soil profile from the boundary"

(Jury et al., 1991, p. 128). Initially, when research began in the 1930's, assumptions were

8

Page 19: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

made that infiltration in playa lakes was insignificant in comparison to the amount of

evaporation that was taking place (Theis, 1937). This was supported by a study done by

the Texas Water Development Board (1965), which indicated that only 10 percent of

water entering a playa lake would infiltrate into the soil profile. These studies concluded

that recharge to the Ogallala must be taking place in the interplaya areas, most

specifically in the sand dune areas around the region.

While debate has continued, many researchers in more recent studies concluded

that playa lake infiltration is indeed significant. Not only that, but recharge to the

Ogallala is now believed to primarily be taking place through playas (Wood and

Osterkamp, 1984b; Wood and Sanford, 1994; Scanlon et al., 1994; Wood, Rainwater, and

Thompson, 1997). Infiltration rates derived from these studies varied dramatically

relative to location, type of playa, and stage of infiltration measured as well as other

factors.

Infiltration takes place in three stages (Baver et al., 1972). This phenomenon was

investigated in a study of a playa lake near Shallowater, Texas, in Lubbock County

(Koenig, 1990; Zartman et al., 1994). Also, the flow patterns of infiltrating water in

playas is not well defined. Water permeates slowly through soil by gravitational and

capillary action; however, it moves quickly through cracks and crevices in the soil strata.

This could cause rapid transport of contaminants to the groundwater. These cracks and

crevices, commonly referred to as macropores, are a dynamic system, changing in size

and shape quickly and periodically on a daily or seasonal basis (Koenig, 1990). A more

Page 20: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

in-depth discussion of playa lake infiltration is given in Chapter IV. Evapotranspiration

and Infiltration.

Infiltration rates of modified playa lakes were studied by Schneider and Jones

(1984). They concluded that playas that had been excavated (that is, a layer of less

permeable soil removed) had significantly greater infiltration rates than unmodified

playas, allowing even more water into the Ogallala aquifer. They noted, however, that

suspended solids accumulated on the soils at the basin surface, referred to as sealing.

Therefore, in order to maintain the increased infiltration rates, the basin surfaces would

have to be renovated by sweeping, scraping, or by hydraulic means. This represents one

of the few studies dealing with playa lakes that have been modified similar to urban playa

lakes.

In recent years, researchers for the Water Resources Center of Texas Tech

University have produced several playa lake studies in which water balances were

performed that investigated infiltration and evaporation relationships. Hydrologic

budgets were performed on five playa lakes on the site of the Pantex Plant near Amarillo,

owned by the Department of Energy (Reed, 1994; Greer, 1994). These researchers

reported that the volumes of water infiltrated are sizable. In many cases, infiltration rates

exceeded evaporation rates by a significant amount.

The most recent study was conducted on urban playa lakes in the city of Lubbock,

Texas (James, 1998). Since urban playas usually hold water year-round, this study is

expectedly different than previous work. James performed hydrologic budgets on five

playas within the city limits that varied from old, unmodified playas to new, extensively

10

Page 21: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

modified playas. Infiltration rates varied significantly from playa to playa and were

related to several factors. The current research is a companion study to James's work and

includes data that were collected for that project. In addition, the work is expanded to

include other aspects of urban playa lake hydrology.

Another area of interest for urban playa lakes is the rising groundwater table that

has been witnessed over the last two decades. Problems with the structural integrity of

buildings with basements, roads that are built below-grade, and Jones Stadium, whose

playing surface has been dangerously close to being flooded are impacts associated with

increased water table elevations. As well as a complication, the water is also a potential

asset to Texas Tech University and the city of Lubbock as an additional water source

(Dvoracek, 1984). The rising water table was attributed to two major factors in work

done by Camp, Dresser, and McKee, Inc. (Kier, Stecher, and Brandes, 1984). It was

noted that recharge from the playa lakes combined with the reduction of groundwater use

in the city has resulted in higher levels of the water table throughout the city, especially

underneath large playa lakes.

Rainwater and Thompson (1994) noted the change of the water table underneath Lubbock

over time. Pumping has controlled the water table in certain areas, but as lakes were

modified for development, recharge increased on the south side of the city. Now, playa

lakes whose basin surface is near the groundwater table may experience a decrease in

infiltration capacity as well as a decrease in stormwater storage capacity. This issue has a

direct correlafion with the current studies of playa lake hydrology in this same urban

environment.

INSTRUMENTATION AND METHODOLOGY

Installations of Equipment

Site Selection

Although approximately 100 playa lakes exist in the city of Lubbock, six playas

were chosen to be representative of the different scenarios that could exist for study.

These lakes were classified according to their age, extent of modification, surrounding

land use, and topographic features. The six lakes that were selected are located in the

following parks: Higinbotham Park, Buster Long Park, Bill Miller Park, David Casey

Park, Andrews Park, and Huneke Park. From this point forward, the lakes will be

referred to by the park name associated with that lake. The location of each of the lakes in

the city of Lubbock are shown in Figure 3.1. The classification criteria for the lakes are

shown in Table 3.1 below.

Each lake contains a unique combination of the selection criteria, however,

several have individual characteristics that are quite similar. Each one is discussed in

more detail below. Topographic maps of each of the playas were produced by earlier

work (Barringer, 1995) and are presented in Appendix A: Topographic/Bathymetric

Maps.

Andrews Park is bounded by 77th Street, Orlando Avenue, 82nd Street, and

Memphis Avenue. The lake is new and was modified extensively for development

purposes on the south side of the city. The watershed area consists of a mix of

commercial and residential areas with flat topography. The side slopes of the lake are

steep (i.e., greater than 0.10), and therefore, the lake is fairly deep.

Bill Miller Park is located on the south side of South Loop 289 between Memphis

Avenue and Indiana Avenue. This lake is old but was modified extensively. The

watershed area is mostly residential and flat. The side slopes of the lake are variable with

the steeper slopes near the loop access road.

Buster Long Park is bounded by 54th Street, Bangor Avenue, 58th Street, and

Aberdeen Avenue near the South Plains Mall. The lake located here is old and was

modified extensively. Land use of the watershed area was traditionally agriculture, but

the watershed is being developed continually into both residential and commercial uses.

The surrounding land is flat, but the lake side slopes are somewhat steep (i.e., greater than

0.10).

David Casey Park is bounded by 66th Street, Avenue W, 70th Street, and

University Avenue. It is located behind an apartment complex and near a new Super K-

14

Page 25: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

mart. The lake is old, but it was not modified to a great extent. The watershed that

contributes to the lake is mostly residential and also flat. Side slopes of the lake are mild

(i.e., between 0.05 and 0.10).

Higinbotham Park is located on 19th Street between Utica Drive and Vicksburg

Avenue. The lake here is relatively old and no modification is apparent. The watershed

land use is entirely residential and the surrounding topography as well as the side slopes

are flat (i.e., less than 0.05).

Huneke Park is located across 82nd Street from Andrews Park and is also

bounded by Nashville Avenue, 84th Street, and Orlando Avenue. This lake is similar to

the Andrews Park playa in that it is also new and extensively modified. The watershed

area is a similar mix of residential and commercial and very flat. However, the side

slopes of the lake here are mild (i.e., between 0.05 and 0.10), so the lake is not as deep as

the one at Andrews Park.

Equipment

The principal task for equipment used on this project was to record water surface

elevations in each of the playas with respect to time. Telog WLS-2109e transducers and

data loggers were used to measure pressure at a point underneath the water level. The

transducer was attached to a battery pack and a data recorder via a cable located inside of

a hollow circuit tube. The tube was connected to a PVC elbow and pipe that could hold

the data logger. The entire apparatus was installed below grade on the shoreline of the

lake, gradually decreasing in depth until it emerged from the ground somewhere beneath

15

Page 26: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

the water surface. The pressure transducer was therefore positioned near the bottom of

the lake. On the shoreline, a bolt-down utility cover was used to protect the data

recorders from public access, slope erosion problems, and park maintenance vehicles.

The housing for the sensor and data logger are described in more detail by James (1998).

A view of the data logger housing apparatus is shown below in Figure 3.2.

<t\k. ' * " > » » .

Figure 3.2: Data Logger Housing

The sensors located on the pressure transducers detected the pressure exerted by

the water every few seconds and then stored them as ten minute averages. Each data

logger could hold about two months of readings before they became full and started

writing over previously collected data. Therefore, data were retrieved every 3 to 4 weeks.

The locations were chosen in an attempt to avoid being flooded during heavy rainfall

events; however, this task was unsuccessful, as each of the data logger boxes were

flooded at least once during the study period.

16

Page 27: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

Data Collection

Several different forms of data were collected for use in the project. Topographic

data and hydrologic data were collected for each individual playa lake. Meteorologic

data were collected at one location and applied to all of the lakes. In addition, some

historical groundwater data were obtained for use in analyzing results from the project.

The study period spans parts of two different years. All six lakes were studied during the

summer of 1995 and Higinbotham and Bill Miller lakes were also studied in the summer

and fall of 1997.

Topographic Data

The topographic data for the project consist of bathymetric and land surveys of

each of the six study playas. Four of the lakes. Bill Miller, Buster Long, David Casey,

and Higinbotham were surveyed and reported by Bob Barringer (1995). The other two

lakes, Huneke and Andrews, were later surveyed by James (1998). These surveys

resulted in topographic/bathymetric maps for each of the playas. These maps are located

in Appendix A: Topographic/Bathymetric Maps. These data also allowed calculation of

values for surface area and storage volume of the playas based on stage. Tables of these

estimations are located in Appendix B: Lake Surface Area and Storage Volumes.

Hydrologic Data

The hydrologic data for the project consist of the pressure readings obtained from

the data loggers at each of the playas. These readings were processed using a companion

17

Page 28: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

software program called Corderbase (Telog, 1993). The data downloaded from the

loggers were combined with the known elevation of the pressure sensor to obtain a time

series of water surface elevations for the lakes. Graphs of these data are presented in

Appendix C: Time Series of Stage.

Meteorologic Data

Meteorologic data for Lubbock, Texas, were needed to calculate evaporation

taking place at each of the playa sites. These data were obtained from two sources. For

the 1995 study period, daily data compiled from the National Weather Service (NWS)

station in Lubbock were obtained. Most of these data were downloaded from the

National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) website (NCDC, 1998) and included air

temperature, dewpoint temperature, wind speed, and skycover. However, in 1996, the

NWS stopped collecting skycover data at the Lubbock location. Therefore, data for the

1997 study period were collected from both the NCDC and The Texas Agriculture

Experiment Station in Lubbock (TAES, 1998). These data included solar radiation

values that allowed for a slightly different computational procedure. The data as well as

the computations are presented in tables in Appendix D: Evaporation Calculations.

Groundwater Data

Groundwater levels beneath the city of Lubbock were obtained from two different

sources. First, historical data were obtained from papers written by Kier, Stecher, and

Brandes (1984) and Rainwater and Thompson (1994), that included water table contours

18

Page 29: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

from 1937, 1981, 1987, and 1991-1992. Second, recent groundwater elevations at

specific locations were obtained from the city of Lubbock (Hensley, personal

communication, 1998). These data are referred to in a discussion of the infiltration rates

in Chapter V, Resufts.

Procedures

The data compiled for the project were used in several ways. A water balance

was constructed for each of the playa lakes. Because playas have no outlet, the only way

for water to leave is by infiltration and evaporation. Therefore, the hydrologic budget is

represented by the following equation:

RO-E-I = AS, (3.1)

where

RO = runoff entering the playa,

E = evaporation from the water surface,

I = infiltration through the playa bottom, and

AS = change in storage in the playa over the time period.

This water balance was evaluated for each of the playa lakes over two distinct types of

intervals. First, it was computed during time periods when no significant rainfall

occurred. Then, it was calculated during actual runoff events. Each of these procedures

is discussed in more detail below.

19

Page 30: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

Periods of No Significant Rainfall

For each data set, time intervals existed during which no rainfall events took place

that produced runoff; therefore, the runoff in the water balance equation is zero. During

these times, infiltration can be inferred by rearranging the equation to obtain

I = AS-E. (3.2)

For time periods of several days or more, evapotranspiration was estimated and

subtracted from the change in stage over that period of time to obtain the infiltration rate.

A detailed discussion of estimating evapotranspiration and calculating infiltration rates

can be found in the next chapter. Spreadsheets for this calculation procedure are given in

Appendix E: Hydrologic Budgets.

Rainfall Events

During runoff events, the runoff variable in the equation becomes significant.

However, during these times, the evapotranspiration is assumed to be zero. Also, if the

infiltration that occurs during this time period is assumed to be small, then the water

balance is simply

RO=AS. (3.3)

This assumption concerning infiltration is valid for the wetted infiltration that is

occurring in the bottom of the playa. However, infiltration also occurs in the area of the

playa that was dry before the event began. This infiltration begins at a significantly

higher rate and decreases until the soil is saturated. This infiltration is not considered to

be part of the runoff, but rather part of the inifial abstraction of the watershed. Therefore,

20

Page 31: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

the change in storage during the event is exactly equal to the runoff from the event. This

value of runoff was then compared to the amount of actual precipitation that occurred on

the watershed on a volume basis to obtain the runoff coefficient. The Rational Method

runoff coefficient is the ratio of runoff to rainfall for the drainage area considered (City of

Lubbock, 1997); therefore, the coefficient was calculated with the following equation:

RO

where

C = runoff coefficient,

RO = runoff (ft ),

R = rainfall (ft), and

A = watershed area (ft ).

The Rational Method makes several simplifying assumptions, but for small watersheds

that average less than 200 acres it can be used to estimate the peak runoff for a given

event. It is common to use this method for small designs in the urban environment;

therefore, it creates an interesting proposal to measure the runoff coefficients and obtain

comparisons.

In addition, a time series of the change in stage during the runoff event was used

to construct hydrographs for each of the events. Spreadsheets containing the calculation

of the runoff coefficients and plots of the hydrographs are presented in Appendix F:

RunoffCoefficients and Hydrographs.

CHAPTER IV

HYDROLOGIC BUDGETS

The hydrologic budgets of the six playas investigated were each computed

separately using the methods described earlier. The two variables of concern in the

process are evaporation from the playas and infiltration through the playa bottom soils.

Each is discussed in more detail in this chapter.

Evapotranspiration

Evapotranspiration is the combination of evaporation from the soil surface and

transpiration from vegetation (Chow et al., 1988). Evapotranspiration is typically

calculated for a reference crop of 8 cm to 15 cm tall grass. This reference crop

evapotranspiration can then be modified to represent any other crop evapotranspiration

rate or a free water surface evaporation rate. A commonly used formula for this

calculation that gives the most satisfactory results is a modified version of the Penman

evaporation formula called the FAO-24 Penman Method that is discussed in the

following section (Doorenbos and Pruitt, 1977).

FAO-24 Penman Method

The FAO-24 Penman Method is taken from the original Penman equation used to

calculate evaporation. The equation contains a radiation term and an aerodynamic or

advection term. The radiation term is used to calculate the net amount of energy or heat,

22

Page 33: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

and the aerodynamic term is used to deal with the movement of water vapor from the

surface into the atmosphere (Phelps, 1993). A revised wind function in the more variable

aerodynamic term is the most significant change from the original Penman equation.

This allows for better prediction results, especially in windy, arid regions such as West

Texas (Doorenbos and Pruitt, 1977).

The FAO-24 Penman Equation takes the following form:

^ - = c [ ( - ^ ) ( R , - G ) + ( - ^ ) 2.7 Wf (e°, - ej] , (4.1) A + / ls. + y

where Efo = reference crop evapotranspiration (mm/d),

c = adjustment factor to compensate for the effect of day and night

weather conditions,

A = slope of saturation vapor pressure-temperature curve (mbar/°C),

y = psychrometric constant (mbar/^C),

R = net radiation (mm/d),

G = heat flux density to the ground (0 for daily intervals),

Wf = wind function, and

e° - e = vapor pressure deficit (mbar).

23

Page 34: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

A / The terms — and — vary with elevation and temperature. These values are

tabulated or can be calculated individually. The slope of the saturation vapor pressure-

temperature curve (A), is given by the relation

A = 25029.9221

_(ravg +237.30)' exp 17.2694 Tc avg

_(ravg +273.3) j (4.2)

where T g is the mean temperature (°C).

The relation for the psychrometric constant (y) is

Cp P ^ ~ 0.622 Z ' ^ ' ^

where

Cp = specific heat of air (approximately 0.240 cal/g-°C),

P = atmospheric pressure (mbar),

X= latent heat of water (cal/g).

The atmospheric pressure (P) can be computed as

P ^ 1013-(0.1055 EL), (4.4)

where EL is the ground surface elevation (meters) at the location where the measurements

are made. The latent heat of water (X) is calculated as

> = 595.9 - (0.55 Targ). (4.5)

24

Page 35: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

The next term in the equation is net radiation (R^), that takes into account the

incoming short-wave solar radiation and the outgoing long-wave radiation. The equation

that relates the two is

i?„ =[(\-a) Rs]-Rt, (4.6)

where

Rj = solar radiation reaching the surface of the earth (MJ/m" d),

a = albedo (-0.25), and

Rb = net outgoing long-wave radiation (MJ/m^ d).

The solar radiation is computed with

i?. = [0.35 +(0.61 f ) ] Rso, (4.7)

where -^ is the ratio of actual to possible sunshine and R ^ is the mean solar radiation for

cloudless skies. This value is given on a per month basis for various latitudes.

The net outgoing long-wave radiation (R ) is calculated with

Rt = [(0.9 f) + 0.l][0.34 - (0.139 V^)] a T\ (4.8)

where

jj- = ratio of actual to possible sunlight

Cd = vapor pressure at dewpoint temperature of air (kPa),

a = Stefan-Boltzmann constant (4.903x10'^ MJ/m^ d K'*), and

T = mean air temperature (K).

The calculation of the vapor pressure at specific temperatures is discussed later.

25

Page 36: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

The wind function as given for the FAO-24 Penman method is

^ / = l + (0.864 u,), (4.9)

where U2 is the wind speed (m/s) at a height of two meters. The vapor pressure deficit is

calculated by subtracting the saturation vapor pressure at the dewpoint temperature from

the saturation vapor pressure at the actual air temperature. The saturation vapor pressure

(e%) is determined by

e^ =0.611 exp 17.27 T

(4.10) (237.3+ r)

where T is the temperature of interest (°C).

The correction factor (c) is computed with the equation

c = 0.68 + 0.0028 RH^^+0.01S R^-0.06S U,+0.0\3 f f/rf , A A'Jfi .. 1 A - 4 + 0.097 U, t +0.430x10-^ RH^^ R^ U„

(4.11)

where

RH^^ = maximum daily relative humidity (%),

Rj = solar radiation (mm/d),

Uj = daytime wind speed (m/s),

j ^ = ratio of daytime to nighttime wind speed (-2.0).

The relative humidity (RH) is the ratio of the saturation vapor pressure at the

dewpoint temperature to the saturation vapor pressure of the air temperature as a

percentage. The procedure for using the FAO-24 Penman Method is outlined by the

American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) publication entitied Evapotranspiration and

Irrigation Water Requirements (Jensen, 1990).

26

Page 37: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

Because application of the FAO-24 Penman Method results in the

evapotranspiration for a reference crop, it must be muftiplied by a crop coefficient. The

crop coefficient for a free water surface is 1.15 (Doorenbos and Pruitt, 1977). Therefore,

the evaporation value (E,) in (mm/d) for this project is found by

£,=1.15 E,^. (4.12)

Computation of Evaporation

Evapotranspiration was calculated on a daily basis with climatological data for

Lubbock, Texas. This value was considered to be independent of location within the city,

so each of the playas experienced the same evaporation rate. The rate was calculated for

each day in the study period for any of the six playa lakes. Tables showing the

calculation of the evaporation are presented in Appendix D: Evaporation Calculations.

At some point during 1996, the National Weather Service station located at the

Lubbock International Airport stopped recording skycover data that is used to obtain the

fraction of possible sunlight (7J-). For the time period of the project that took place in

1997, a slight modification of the FAO-24 Penman Method was used. The Texas

Agriculture Experiment Station collects climatological data relevant to estimating

evapotranspiration as well. Their data include solar radiation (R3) readings. Therefore,

skycover readings were not used in calculation of evapotranspiration for 1997. Using

data from 1995 when both skycover and solar radiation were available, a comparison was

made between the two methods. The average deviation between the evaporation

27

Page 38: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

calculations was just 0.12 mm/d. This was deemed acceptable since uncertainty in the

evaporation calculation is probably greater than this value.

Infiltration

The other area of interest in the water balance of playa lakes is the infiltration

through the bottom sediments. Infiltration is simply the process where water enters a soil

profile from the boundary (Jury et al., 1991). However, this process is much more

complicated than the basic definition suggests.

Infiltration takes place in three stages (Baver et al., 1972). The first stage, Stage I,

exhibits a high infiltration rate for the first few minutes while the soil is dry. The

infiltration rate during this stage is controlled by the amount of water available at the soil

surface. Stage II is a transitional period where the infiltration rate declines as the soil

wettens. This decreasing rate is not linear, but rather exponential. The final stage. Stage

III, occurs when the soil becomes saturated and the infiltration rate becomes constant.

The infiltration rate at this stage is controlled by properties of the soil such as its texture.

Playa Lake Infiltration

Playa lake infiltration illustrates this pattern quite well. In rural lakes, where the

playa may completely dry out between runoff events, all three stages can be seen to take

place. In addition, soils found in playa bottoms are clayey; therefore, when they dry out,

they tend to shrink and form cracks in the bottom of the lake. Initial runoff to the playa

will enter these macropores and infiltrate quickly. After the soil is wetted and the clays

28

Page 39: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

swell, the infiltration rate is reduced to the final infiltration rate or wetted rate. This

phenomenon was shown in a study of a playa lake near Shallowater, Texas, in Lubbock

County (Koenig, 1990; Zartman et al., 1994).

Urban playas tend to hold water year-round in response to several factors. The

most obvious difference in urban playa lakes is the amount of runoff that they receive

from each event. Therefore, urban playas typically only experience Stage III infiltration.

At the beginning of each runoff event, water enters the playa area and infiltrates quickly

in the surrounding soils or annular region of the playa. However, as this part of the playa

becomes saturated, infiltration capacity is reduced until it reaches a steady rate. Between

events. Stage III infiltration is the only type of infiltration that is occurring.

Computation of Infiltration

Infiltration of playa lakes is calculated indirectly from the hydrologic budget.

Because the only outlet for playa lake water is evaporation or infiltration, these rates

added together will be the total reduction in lake level over a period of time in which no

runoff takes place.

For each time period selected for each of the playas, the total reduction in lake

level was determined from stage measurements. The total evaporation was calculated for

the time period and subtracted from the change in lake level. The result was the

infiltration for the time period that could be taken as an average constant rate. The

computation of the infiltration rates and volumes for each of the playa lakes is shown in

29

Page 40: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

tables in Appendix E: Hydrologic Budgets. A discussion of the resuhs of these

calculations is presented in the next chapter.

30

Page 41: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

CHAPTER V

RESULTS

Using the procedures outlined above, hydrologic budgets allowed calculation of

evaporation and infiltration rates for each playa. Also, runoff coefficients were estimated

from data taken during rainfall events. Further evaluation of the results is discussed

below.

Periods of No Significant Rainfall

During periods when no runoff occurred, hydrologic budgets were computed,

resulting in a collection of infiltration rates for each playa. More data were available for

some playas than others for these calculations. Average infiltration rates obtained from

the significant periods are shown on Table 5.1. These rates are weighted averages based

on the number of days during each study period. Each period of record was distinct,

although much overlap does occur. However, results for each lake are independent;

therefore, each will be discussed separately and in further detail later.

The yearly average evaporation for the city of Lubbock is about 5.5 mm/d.

Summer rates can be approximately 10.0 mm/d and the winter rates decrease to about 2.0

mm/d. Playa lake inftitration rates vary between 1.5 mm/d and 14.3 mm/d; therefore, the

average infiltration rates for the playas are meaningful when compared to evaporation, a

confirmation of the current hypothesis.

Average infiltration rates obtained for the six playas studied for this project vary

over an order of magnitude, a statistically important observation. This confirms that the

lakes behave differently in response to several possible factors and can only be assumed

to represent lakes with similar characteristics to their own. These factors will be

discussed in conjunction with results for each individual lake.

Andrews

The periods that were used to calculate the hydrologic budget for the lake at

Andrews Park are shown in Table 5.2. Thirty-nine total days were used to calculate the

infiltration rate from three different periods of no runoff Minimal variation was

observed in the data collected from these three periods. The average infiltration rate was

computed to be 1.5 mm/d. This low rate was not expected from this lake site. The lake

at Andrews Park is new and has been modified extensively and recently. This lake would

be expected to have one of the highest infiltration rates in the study. The only

explanation for these resuhs is the possibility of a hydraulic connection between this lake

32

Page 43: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

and the groundwater table. If the water table level is above the bottom of the lake, the

infiltration through the playa soils would be slowed considerably. This hypothesis will

be explored later in this chapter in the section titied "Groundwater Considerations."

The periods that were used to calculate the hydrologic budget for the lake at Bill

infiltration rate from six different periods of no runoff Considerable variation was

observed in the data collected from these six periods. The average infiltration rate was

computed to be 8.3 mm/d. Using the six periods, a 95 percent confidence interval for this

lake was determined to be 4.0 mm/d - 12.0 mm/d, a wide range, but consistent with the

available data.

The lake at Bill Miller Park is old but has been modified extensively and

somewhat recently. This lake would be expected to have a fairiy high infiltration rate in

the study. The average rate is slightly greater than that for lakes that have not been

modified recently; however, it might be expected to be even larger. Also, the variation of

the infiltration rates suggest that this lake may have a hydraulic connection with the

groundwater table at times. This possibility will be examined later in this chapter in the

section titled "Groundwater Considerations."

Buster Long

The periods that were used to calculate the hydrologic budget for the lake at

Buster Long Park are shown in Table 5.4. Forty-nine total days were used to calculate

the infiltration rate from six different periods of no runoff. Some variation was observed

in the data; however, most of it is contained in the two periods that only lasted three days.

Therefore, the infiltration rate for this lake appears to be stable if averaged over a

significant period of time. The average rate was determined to be 6.3 mm/d.

The lake at Buster Long Park is old and has been modified extensively but not

recently. This lake would be expected to demonstrate characteristics similar to the older

lakes, which holds true. The infiltration rate is the lowest in the study with the exception

of the extreme case at Andrews Park. The consistent rates for this lake indicate a greater

confidence in the resuhs as well. Groundwater levels do not appear to be affecting this

lake.

David Casey

The periods that were used to calculate the hydrologic budget for the lake at

David Casey Park are shown in Table 5.5. Fifty-eight total days were used to calculate

the infiltration rate from three different periods of no runoff. The variation in the results

for this lake appear to be due to the time of year when the data were collected. The

average rate was found to be 7.8 mm/d, however, the summer rate is slightly greater, and

the winter rate is slightly less. The other explanation for the difference between the first

two periods and the third period was a lower lake stage, which might be the factor

influencing the lower infiltration rates.

The lake at David Casey Park is old and has only been moderately modified. This

would indicate that a lower infiltration rate would be expected. However, the average

rate is somewhat greater than Buster Long's rate, and the summer rates are considerably

greater. The infiltration capacity of this lake is substantially larger than anticipated.

Higinbotham

The periods that were used to calculate the hydrologic budget for the lake at

Higinbotham Park are shown in Table 5.6. One hundred forty-two total days were used

to calculate the infiltration rate from 13 different periods of no runoff More data were

available for Higinbotham then for any of the other lakes. The average infiltration rate

was computed to be 6.8 mm/d. A 95 percent confidence interval of 4.6 mm/d - 10.0

mm/d was found to give a range of expected rates.

The lake at Higinbotham Park is old and has not been modified. This lake would

be expected to have some of the lowest infiltration rates in the study. This was found to

be fairiy true. The average rate for the Higinbotham lake was less than most of the others

and similar to Buster Long. The variation in resuhs can be explained by one main factor.

The infiltration rate was much higher during periods of higher lake stage than during

periods of lower stage. However, this lake does appear to have an infiltration capacity

similar to what was expected.

Huneke

The periods that were used to calculate the hydrologic budget for the lake at

Huneke Park are shown in Table 5.7. Only eleven total days were used to calculate the

infiltration rate from two different periods of no runoff As a result of instrumentation

problems, fewer data were collected at Huneke than for any of the other lakes. The

average infiltration rate was computed to be 14.3 mm/d. This is the greatest rate for any

of the lakes.

The lake at Huneke Park is new and has been modified extensively and recentiy.

This lake would be expected to have one of the greatest infiltration rates; therefore, the

37

Page 48: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

results seem reasonable. Even though the data are scarce for this lake, the results can be

considered as a comparison for the other lakes.

Comparisons

Data collected for this project took place during two separate time periods and

encompassed six different lakes. However, results were typically similar and close to

expectations. Four of the lakes, Bill Miller, Buster Long, David Casey, and

Higinbotham, were statistically comparable. Average infiltration rates varied by only 2.0

mm/d, and the range of rates seen in the study were alike from lake to lake. These four

lakes are the four older lakes studied, therefore, they were expected to have lower

infiltration rates than the other two.

Andrews Lake and Huneke Lake were the newer playas involved in the project.

Huneke performed as expected with higher infiltration rates than the older lakes.

However, Andrews Lake, which is only one block north of Huneke Lake, had the lowest

infiltration rate in the study. This anomaly spurred interest in the possibility of

groundwater interference in playa lake infiltration. The impact of ground water on the

playa lakes in the study is discussed in the following section.

Groundwater Considerations

Groundwater levels are considered to be important in the calculation of the

infiltration rates because some of the lakes may be directly cormected to the water table.

If any portion of the playa bottom is below the level of the groundwater at that location,

38

Page 49: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

then the water will not infiltrate as quickly through that area. The groundwater levels

were investigated at a variety of sites with special attention placed on the lakes in the

southern portion of the city of Lubbock. Water table levels are shown for several sites

near the lakes used in the study in Table 5.8. No wells were used near Higinbotham Park

since groundwater levels are not considered to be near the bottom of the lakes in that area.

A table with data from all the wells used in this investigation are shown in Appendix G:

The results of the groundwater investigations have several implications. It can be

seen that the water table is rising, a confirmation to previous studies. More importantly

for the impact of infiltration rates is that the groundwater level is higher than the bottoms

of Andrews, Huneke, and Bill Miller Lakes in 1992. The water table is approximately 20

feet above the bottom of Andrews and approximately 10 feet above the bottoms of

Huneke and Bill Miller in 1992. Most of the data were collected for these three lakes in

the summer of 1995, which was hot and dry. Therefore, water tables may have been

lower than this during the period when data were collected.

From the results, it appears that Huneke was not affected during this time by the

water table, although data resources are limited. During this study period, rains that

39

Page 50: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

occurred filled the lake to the point that the data loggers were irretrievable. Since that

time, the lake level has not decreased to anything approaching the original stage. This

may indicate that the lake is now in hydraulic connection with the water table. Andrews

Lake appears to have been affected by this connection to the water table during the entire

study period. This would indicate that the water table elevation in this vicinity of

Lubbock may have been at about 3196 feet - 3205 feet when the summer began. It

probably rose by the end of the summer to an elevation above 3205 feet, the bottom

elevation of Huneke Lake.

Therefore, the impact of the water table on Bill Miller Lake, which is also in close

proximity to these two lakes, is unclear. The groundwater may have risen above the

bottom of the lake at some point during the 1995 study period since that instrument was

also submerged after a rainfall event. However, it is unknown how much impact this

might have had on the infiltration rates calculated from the hydrologic budgets. It does

seem clear, though, that Andrews Lake's infiltration rates were decreased by the presence

of the water table.

Rainfall Events

During the rainfall events, data were available on the same ten-minute intervals.

These data were used to calculate the amount of runoff entering the playas for each

rainfall event. When divided by the amount of rainfall that occurred during the event, a

runoff coefficient is obtained. The importance of the runoff coefficient has been

discussed, but its value may be in some question.

40

Page 51: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

When calculating a coefficient for the Rational Method, tables are used to select a

value based on land use. These values are weighted based on area and a composite "C" is

obtained for the watershed (City of Lubbock, 1997). The expected runoff coefficients for

the six lakes used in this study have been calculated and are shown in Table 5.9.

Runoff Coefficient, "C" 0.60 0.57 0.57 0.61 0.60 0.60

Because the runoff coefficients in the city are very similar, it is common to

assume one "C" value to use at any location. This value for the city of Lubbock is about

0.60. This means that for design purposes, it is assumed that 60 percent of the rainfall in

the city becomes runoff which eventually makes its way to the playas. The results of the

calculated runoff coefficients from the data in this project are shown in Table 5.10. Note

that the average value for the lakes is not 0.60, but rather 0.25.

Several other points of interest can be seen in the table. First, the variation that

occurs is not caused by the different lakes. The coefficients for each lake are similar and

verify the thought that every watershed can be considered to be alike. Second, several

lakes have data from the same rainfall events. The August 14th event in 1995 was

recorded on four lakes, giving a range of runoff coefficients of 0.14 - 0.26. This storm is

42

Page 53: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

an example of the consistency demonstrated by the different lakes. Finally, it should be

noticed that the runoff coefficient does not vary with the amount of rainfall in the event.

This effect is illustrated with a graph of rainfall amount versus runoff coefficient, which

is shown in Figure 5.1. Notice that the storms do not have a distinct relationship with the

size of the event. This confirms what would be expected.

In addition to the previous observations, a least squares regression was performed

on the data to obtain the runoff coefficient represented by that analysis. The points as

well as the fitted line are shown in a graph of rainfall versus runoff in Figure 5.2. The

line was assumed to go through the origin, and the slope of the line from the regression

technique was calculated as 0.21. This slope, then, is the estimated runoff coefficient for

these data, a close similarity to the mean average value of 0.25. Because these values

were arrived at by two different numerical methods, the confidence in them is increased

The last analysis of the rainfall events that was performed was the investigation of

the hydrographs produced by the data. The hydrographs were obtained from the ten-

minute intervals during the runoff periods. All of the estimated hydrographs are shown in

Appendix F: RunoffCoefficients and Hydrographs. A variety of storms have been

included in the study and are represented by the hydrographs. Storms of varying

durations and intensities were used as well as storms with multiple peaks. Even so, the

runoff coefficient does not vary greatly with the type of event occurring.

Possible Errors

In a project of this magnitude, several sources of error exist that could affect the

outcome of the study. One possibility of error stems from the collection of

meteorological data. These data were used in the evaporation estimate for the project as a

whole. Individual lakes may have different conditions from each other and from the

airport gauging station where the data were collected. This type of error could also affect

the calculation of the runoff coefficient, because rainfall values were also taken from a

gauge at the airport site.

Another area of possible error was the pressure transducer and data logger.

Vandalism and other tampering with the devices installed in the lakes was suspected in

several instances, but never proven. Any movement of the tip of the device would affect

the lake level readings. In addition, anomalies were detected in the readings from the

data loggers. These spikes and waves were noted and not considered when producing the

lake levels used to calculate both the infiltration rates and the runoff coefficient. Errors

are inevitable, but these potential problems did not produce inaccurate results as each

error was considered to be within an acceptable limit.

CHAPTER VI

CONCLUSIONS

This project had three objectives. First, data were collected for six playa lakes in

the city of Lubbock. These data include meteorologic data, hydrologic data in the form

of lake levels, and groundwater data at specific points in time near these sites. Second,

hydrologic budgets were calculated for muhiple time periods given the restrictions of

available data. This information comprised estimates of infiltration and evaporation rates

as well as groundwater interaction. Third, rainfall events were also investigated for the

six playas. Runoff entering the playa lakes was used to calculate a runoff coefficient for

the city of Lubbock as well as obtaining inflow hydrographs for many storms. Results

for each lake illustrated the similarities and differences of urban playa lakes in the context

of hydrology in the city of Lubbock.

Hydrologic Budgets

The infiltration capacity of urban playa lakes does not consist of one, easily

defined value. The lakes in this study demonstrated that several factors affect the

infiltration rates of playas in the city of Lubbock. First, the age of the playa lake is a

major consideration. Over time "sealing" occurs on the bottom of playas from clay

particles and other solids that fill voids in the soil. This lowers the infiltration rate

significantiy. Newer lakes that have not had time for this process to occur, generally

have higher infiltration rates, such as that seen at Huneke. A second factor in playa lake

47

Page 58: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

infiltration is the stage in the lake itself Results from two lakes in the study,

Higinbotham and David Casey, indicated that higher lake stages would produce greater

infiltration rates. This would be expected from the additional head produced by the

higher stage. Finally, the mounded water table beneath the city has the capability to

decrease the infiltration rates in urban playas extensively.

The groundwater in the city of Lubbock is rising dramatically (Rainwater and

Thompson, 1994), an occurrence that is unique to the urban areas of the southern high

plains. This mounding water table is focused under the playas of the city, especially

those in the southern portion. The implications of this are twofold. Water in the newer,

modified playas is infiltrating quickly into the groundwater, causing more mounding to

occur. However, when this water level rises above the bottom of the playas, which it is

likely to do in the deeper lakes, it causes a dramatic decrease in the capacity of these

lakes to infiltrate the stormwater. Combine this with the possibility of sealing in the

playa bottoms, and the new urban playa lakes are in danger of not infiltrating enough

water and not allowing enough stormwater storage capacity for the drainage plans of the

city of Lubbock.

This phenomenon is already occurring at Andrews Lake, a deep, newly modified

playa in the southern part of the city. The indications are that Huneke Lake and Bill

Miller Lake have the possibility of coming in and out of contact with the groundwater,

depending on its level. During a period of wet years, it is probable that the water table

would mound up to the point that infiltration was greatly reduced in those lakes. More

than any other factor, the groundwater levels could affect the infiltration capacity of

48

Page 59: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

urban playa lakes in the near future. This topic deserves much more attention and study

in this region of the country.

Runoff Events

The second area of study in this project centered around the rainfall/runoff events

that occurred during the study. Analysis of these events leads to the conclusion that the

runoff coefficient for the small watersheds in the city of Lubbock may be much lower

than anticipated. The "C" value is approximated as 0.60 for most cases in the city,

however, this project was able to show that the actual runoff was about 21 percent of the

rainfall, or C = 0.21. This discovery shows the conservative nature of the runoff

coefficients currently in use. The investigation of runoff coefficients in other ways could

verify the work done in this project and help to reduce this over estimation.

Also included in this work was development of inflow hydrographs to the playa

lakes. This work helped define the types of storm events involved in the study. The

hydrographs could also be obtained in different ways for ftirther verification and analysis

of urban hydrology.

Recommendations

This project could be expanded and improved upon in several ways. First, more

data needs to be collected during the fall, winter, and spring to investigate the seasonal

variations of the infiltration rates. In addition, the collection of more data would continue

to improve the accuracy and reliability of the results being produced. Second,

49

Page 60: Hydrology of Urban Playa Lakes in Lubbock Texas

groundwater wells should be studied in conjunction with the playa level data collection.

Collecting data during the same periods of time would allow ftirther analysis of the link

between the playa lakes and the rising water table. Third, improvements that could

eliminate errors include a better housing method for the data logger and pressure

transducer to combat vandalism and equipment tampering. Last, meteorologic data,

especially rainfall, could be collected throughout the watersheds of the specific lakes.

This would allow a better estimate of the runoff coefficient and the evaporation rate, thus

decreasing the component of error in the study.
