The initial infiltration capacity fo of a watershed is estimated as 1.5 in./hr,and the time constant is taken to be 0.35 hr -1. The equilibrium capacity fe is 0.2 in./hr. Use Horton's equation to find (a) the values of fat t= 10 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr, and 6 hr, and (b) the total volume of infiltration over the 6-hr period
Please provide an explanation for evry formula and solution. And be clear with your answer. In 1997, Upper Grand watershed near Maputi, Bukidnon with an area of 4350 sq.km received 77.7 cm of precipitation. The average rate of flow measured in the Grand River, which drained the watershed, was 39.6 cu.m/s. Infiltration was estimated to occur at an average rate of 9.2 x 10-7 cm/s. Evapotranspiration was estimated to be 45 cm/yr. What is the change in storage in the watershed in cm/yr. Also, calculate the runoff coefficient for this watershed.

Question 2: After conduct an experiment, you found that the soil for the watershed have an initial rate of infiltration equal to 1.35 in./hr and a final capacity of 0.3 in./hr. Assuming that the time constant k = 0.4, calculate the soil infiltration capacity at the times 10 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr, 4 hr, and 6 hr using Horton's equation. Infiltration
10.3. For some reason, a lined hazardous-waste landfill was located on top of a confined aquifer. Situated approximately 500 m away is a community water supply well which is pumped at a rate of 104 m³/d. If an earthquake occurs which splits open the liner and pollutes the aquifer, how much time is available to shut down the well and avoid withdrawing contaminated water? Assume the follow- ing aquifer characteristics are applicable: hydraulic conductivity = 50 m/d, porosity = 0.2, aquifer thickness = 5 m, and aquifer width = 50 m. (Courtesy of Jim Hunt.)
