Question
A catchment area which is having a slope of 2.8% and a clay loam soil has four gauging
stations. The distance of GS1 to GS4 is 450km, GS1 to GS2 is 242km, GS2 to GS3 is
235km, GS3 to GS4 is 486km, GS1 to GS3 is 750km, and GS4 to GS2 is 741km. The
rainfall depths recorded per year in GS1, GS2, GS3, and GS4 are 245mm, 215mm,
178mm, and 150mm and the corresponding polygon areas of each gauging station is
50,845 hec, 480km2, 750km2, and 640km2, respectively. Determine the gross
irrigation requirement in m if the crop factor on the area is 0.495 and the pan
evaporation is 201mm, the konveyance efficiency is 34%.
