Question
A catchment area of 100 Sq. Km. in Gilgit received a rainfall of 1 mm from a 3-hours storm. At the outlet of the catchment, a natural stream had a steady flow of 10 cumecs before the storm and experienced a runoff lasting for 20 hours with an average discharge value of 90 cumecs. The stream was again to its original steady state with a flow of 10 cumecs. Estimate the losses and ratio of runoff to precipitation.
