A small catchment area 300 km2received a rainfall of 15cm in 1 hour, due to a storm draining thecatchment was dry before the storm and experienced a runoff lasting for 5 hours with an averagedischarge Value of 3 m3/sec. The stream was given dry after the runoff event.(a) What is the amount of water in cm3 which was not available to runoff alone to combined effectof infiltration, evaporation and transpiration.(b) What is the ratio of total and direct runoff to precipitation.
The flow rates measured during a precipitation at the outlet of a basin with an area of 32400 hectares are given below. It is assumed that the precipitation intensity is constant 60 mm/hr and the infiltration index of the basin is 10 mm/hr. Determine the duration of the unit hydrograph and obtain the 60-minute unit hydrograph of the basin. You can take the base flow as 100 m³/s.
Reportedly one of the shortest rivers in the world at 30 m in length, the Ombla River watershed hasan area of about 600 km2 and receives 1020.8 mm of precipitation annually. The regional averageannual evapotranspiration is 150 mm. Measured at its Adriatic Sea terminus, the average flowrateof the Ombla River is 24.1 m3/s.How much runoff reached the river as discharge for the year (in cm)? What annual volume is removed in vapour form (in m3)?Considering the climatic variables reported, what volume remains unclassified in the waterbalance (in ha∙m/yr), and what could this volume reasonably represent in the hydrologic cycle?
A catchment has a size of 100 km2 . In its original condition, the average annual total runoff from the catchment is 1.0m3/s . The average annual rainfall is 800 mm/a . In an average year, 50% of the rainfall infiltrates and only 10% of the rainfall reaches the groundwater . Capillary rise is negligble. a . How much is the evapotranspiration in an average year(neglect the effect of storage)? b . How much water seeps out from the groundwater to the surface water in an average year if you assume that over a year there is no change in storage in the groundwater? c .How much water in mm/s,is used by the vegetation(evaporation from bare soil can be neglected)?
