WATER RESOURCES ENGINEERING: Measurements of a water-balance have been made for a one-year period on a lake with an area of 0.8 km2 with the following results: P = 1400 mm, Qsi = 0.15 m3s-1 and Qso = 0.17m3s-1. The lake surface elevation, h, at the end of the year was 45mm lower than at the beginning. What is the estimate (in mm) of the lake evaporation for that year?

A reservoir with a surface area of 250 hectares had the following average values of climate parameters during a week: Water temperature = 38°C, Relative humidity = 36%, Wind velocity at 3.0 m above ground surface = 20 kph. Consider shallow water, estimate the average daily evaporation from the lake by using Meyer’s Formula. (in mm/day). Show complete solution
A small shallow reservoir has a surface area of 150 square meters is used to estimate the average daily evaporation. The average values of climate parameters during a week are the following: water temperature is 34 degrees Celsuis, relative humidity of 0.3, wind velocity at 1.0 meter above ground surface is 4.444 m/s. Use the Meyer's formula to get the average daily evaporation. Also, compute the total volume of water lost due to evaporation daily.

Problem 1: Water BalanceMeasurements of water-balance components have been made for a one-year period on a lake with an area of 0.8 km2 with the following results: P = 1400 mm, Qsi = 0.15 m3 s-1, and Qso = 0.17 m3 s-1. The lake-surface elevation, h, at the end of the year was 45 mm lower than at the beginning. What is the estimate (in mm) of the lake evaporation for that year?
Estimate the constant rate of withdrawal from a 1375 ha reservoir in a month of 30 days during which the reservoir level dropped by 0.75 m in spite of an average inflow into the reservoir of 500,000 m 3 /day. During the month the average seepage loss from the reservoir was 2.5 cm, total precipitation on the reservoir was 18.5 cm and the total evaporation was 9.5 cm.
