3 The average annual precipitation on a catchment of 350 km² is 200 mm and the runoff coefficient is 9%. a Compute the average flow at the outlet of the catchment in m³/s. b Plans are made to extract 100x106 m³ of groundwater annually. This water will be transported to a town elsewhere, outside the catchment. Would you recommend this plan to be executed? Why?
