   - Find the pre-peak, peak, and post-peak counts.  Do this first by looking at the plot of the spectrum.  Find the channel of the peak on the plot.  In the example, the peak channel is channel 5.  The values in the text window are the counts in each channel.  In the example, the pre-peak counts are 351,peak counts are 676, and post-peak counts are 178.11.   - Find the pre-peak, peak, and post-peak counts.  Do this first by looking at the plot of the spectrum.  Find the channel of the peak on the plot.  In the example, the peak channel is channel 5.  The values in the text window are the counts in each channel.  In the example, the pre-peak counts are 351,peak counts are 676, and post-peak counts are 178.11.
   - Calculate the Water Equivalent Size, Average Channel, and Standard Channel Size.  Run the program avg_channel by entering into a terminal <code>avg_channel</code>  The program will calculate Water Equivalent Size, Average Channel, and Standard Channel Size.   - Calculate the Water Equivalent Size, Average Channel, and Standard Channel Size.  Run the program avg_channel by entering into a terminal <code>avg_channel</code>  The program will calculate Water Equivalent Size, Average Channel, and Standard Channel Size.
