What is A Note on the Variation of Dew Amount with Elevation about?

The phenomenon of dew deposition is recognized as being of considerable significance to the plant and animal ecology of arid and semi-arid regions of the world. An excellent review article on this subject was published recently by WALLIN (1967). His article, plus a brief perusal of the extensive bibliography on the subject, indicates that nearly all research on dew has been concerned with: (1) its measurement; (2) its role on plant development; (3) its forecasting; and (4) its affect on plant diseases and pests. Only a very few studies have been reported on the climatology of dew. While unfortunate, this fact is understandable and is due to a lack of standardization of instrument and measurement techniques. This report summarizes briefly the results of three growing seasons of dew measurements over a limited climatological network along a 340-mile line extending across the high plains and foothills to the Continental Divide in central Colorado.
