A catchment has four sub-areas. The annual precipitation and evaporation from each of the sub-areas are given below. Assume that there is no change in the ground water storage on an annual basis and calculate for the whole catchment the values of annual average i) Precipitation ii) Evaporation iii) What are the annual runoff coefficient for the sub-areas and for the total catchment taken as a whole?
