A lake had a water surface elevation of 9536/78 m above datum at the beginning of a certain month. In that month the lake received an average inflow of 6.0 m³/s from surface runoff sources. 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 9536/10 mm and the evaporation from the lake surface was estimated as 9536/1000 cm. Write the water budget equation for the lake and calculate the water surface elevation of the lake at the end of the month. The average lake surface area can be taken as 9536 ha. Assume that there is no contribution to or from the groundwater storage.

Q2. A flowrate of 1.2 m/s is supplied from a drinking water dam lake (reservoir), which has been fed by two streams having a flowrate of 0.7 m³/s and 0.8 m³/s, respectively. It was determined that there was a decrease of 8 cm in the water level in this dam lake, which has a surface area of 400 ha, during one month. Considering the monthly evaporation depth of 343 mm measured in an evaporation pan near a storage reservoir, calculate the pan coefficient (You will ignore the infiltration losses and consider one month as 30 days).
During a month, the average rate of inflow and outflow in a reservoir of surface area of 20 km2 is 10 m3/s and 15 m3/s respectively. The monthly rainfall and seepage loss is 10 cm and 1.8 cm respectively and the change in storage is 16 million m3. Determine the evaporation (in cm) for the month.
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.
A reservoir had an average surface area of 20 km² during September 2008. In that month, the mean rate of inflow is 10 m³/s, outflow is 15 m³/s, monthly rainfall is 10 cm and change in storage is 16 Mm³. Assuming the seepage losses to be 1.8 cm, estimate the evaporation in that month.

The plan area of a reservoir is 1 km2. The water level in the reservoir is observed to decline by 20 cm in a certain period. During this period, the reservoir receives a surface inflow of 10 ha-m and 20 ha-m are abstracted from the reservoir for irrigation and power. The pan evaporation and rainfall recorded during the same period at a nearby meteorological station are 12 cm and 3 cm respectively. The calibrated pan factor is 0.7. The seepage loss from the reservoir during this period in hectare-m is
A lake with an area of 5 km2 has a net decrease in storage of 6 ha-mm. The inflowing stream rate is 2 m3/s while the outflow rate is 2.5 m³/s. If no rain fell during the month, what is the estimated total evaporation for the month? 2. (0.5. 36oor,24
