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 groundwater storage on an annual basis. Compute the runoff coefficient for the Sub A. Show complete Solution
A lake with a surface area of 5km2 had a water surface elevation of 103.2m above datum at the beginning of a certain month. In that month the lake received an average inflow of 6m³/s from surface runoff source. In the same period the outflow from the lake had an average value of 6.5 m³/s. Further, in that month, the lake received a rainfall of 145mm and the evaporation from the lake surface was estimated as 6.10cm. Calculate the water surface elvation of the lake at the end of the month.
6. Runoff from a 200 mile² catchment drains into a reservoir than has an average surface area of 4000 acres. The reservoir is to be used for municipal water supply. Annual rainfall over the watershed is 40 inches and the annual runoff is 2 inches. Evaporation from the reservoir averages 40 inches per year. If the surface area of the reservoir is roughly constant with depth, how much will the reservoir depth change in one year?
If the Kuils River has a catchment area of 200 square kilometres and receives in a year 600 mm/year of rainfall, and the runoff from this catchment is 100 mm/year.

The asphalt surface has an average slope of 0.6%, and the distance from the catchment boundary to the drain is 50 m. The drainage channel is 30 m long, 25 cm wide, 20 cm deep, and has a slope of 0.8%. For an effective rainfall rate of 60 mm/h, the flow rate in the channel is estimated to be 0.025 m³/s. Estimate the time of concentration, te of the catchment. Hint: Use the Manning's in the kinematic wave equation form.
