The Coso Monitoring Program is a continuing effort in support of the geothermal development of Coso, which is located within the boundaries of the Naval Weapons Center. Data are presented on the monitoring of steam flows, water levels in ponds and wells, water chemistry, temperature logs of shallow wells, and rainfall at the Coso Resort. A weekly photographic study of the mud pots is described showing the variation of fluid levels in the mud pots in the wet and dry seasons.
