In a month of 30 days, a lake received an average inflow of 6m^3/s from surface runoff. In the same period the outflow from the lake had anaverage value of 6.5 m3/sec. Further, in that month, the lakereceived a rainfall of 145 mm and the evaporation from the lakesurface was estimated as 6.1 cm and seepage loss was 2.5cm in that month. The average lake surface is 5000 ha. Compute for the change in water elevation in the lake at the end of that month in centimeters, If it is a loss, indicate this by preceding the answer with a negative sign.

A lake had a water surface elevation of 103.2 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 145 mm and the evaporation from the lake surface was estimated as 6.10 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 5000 ha.
