Fig. 1. Natural rainfall events and amount during the sampling period (18 July to 17 Oct. 1996), Sierra Blanca, Texas. Arrows correspond to biosolids application date (last application) and start of simulated rainfall on the Stellar and Chilicotal soils, respectively. Dates on the horizontal axis are listed in the month/day/year format
