A lake with a surface area of 1260 acres was monitored over a period of time. During a one-month period, the inflow was 44 cfs, the outflow was 26 cfs, and a 1.6 in. seepage loss was measured. During the same month, the total precipitation was 5.2 in. Evaporation loss was estimated as 3 in. Estimate the storage change (ac-ft) for this lake during the month. Note: 1 ac is equal to 43560 ft²

Please help.
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.

Example Problem Water budget for a lake provides following observations: Precipitation, P = = 43 in./yr. Evaporation, E = 53 in./yr. Inflow to Lake, Qin = 1 in./yr. Outflow from Lake, Qout = 173 in./yr. Change in Lake storage, AS = -2 in./yr. Find the net groundwater flow. Solution: E SWIn GWin PPT Evap SW Out GWout
a. What is the inflow? b. What is the outflow?
Problem 3. A stream of 175 liters per second was diverted from the river and 105 liters per second was delivered to the field. An area of 2 hectares was irrigated in hours. The root-zone depth was 1.8 m. The runoff averaged 50 liters per second for 3 hours. The depth of water penetration varied linearly from 1.8 m at the head of the field to 1.2 m at the end of the field. Determine the water-conveyance efficiency, the water-application efficiency, * ~ff:
A reservoir had a water surface elevation of 110 m above the datum at the beginning of the month. In the same month, the reservoir received an average inflow of 7.5 cms (m3/s) from surface runoff sources. For the same period, the outflow from the reservoir had an average value of 5 cms. Further, in the same month, the reservoir received a rainfall of 180 mm and losses due to evaporation of 5 cm. Assume the area of the lake is 50 km2 acres and assume no contribution from groundwater storage. What is the water surface elevation of the reservoir after the month?
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
