1. The following are the ordinates of the 9-hour unit hydrograph for the entire catchment of
the river to reservoir dam site:
Time (hr) 09 18 27 36 45 54 63 72 81 90
Discharge
(cumecs)
69 1000 210 118 74
46
26 13
and the catchment characteristics are A = 4480 km2, L = 318 km, Lc = 198 km.
Derive a 3-hour unit hydrograph for the catchment area of river to the head of reservoir,
given the catchment characteristics as A = 3780 km2, L = 284 km, Lca = 184 km. Use
Snyder's method with necessary modifications for the shape of the hydrograph.
