A 12 hr storm over a catchment area of 180 hectares produces a total rainfall of depth 12 cm. An infiltration capacity 0.8 cm/hr initially and finally 0.2 cm/hr are obtained from Horton's infiltration curve with Horton's k = 5 hr. An IMD pan installed in the catchment indicated a decrease of 0.6 cm in rainfall during the same period due to evaporation. Assume pan coefficient = 0.6. Determine the runoff from the catchment in ha-m.
