A catchment area which is having a slope of 2% has four gauging stations. Determine the type of soil having the highest net irrigation requirement in m if the crop factor on the area is 0.495 and the pan evaporation is 201mm, the conveyance efficiency is 34%. The distance of GS1 to GS4 is 490km, GS1 to GS2 is 484km, GS2 to GS3 is 285km, GS3 to GS4 is 658km, GS1 to GS3 is 735km, and GS4 to GS2 is 778km. 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.
Reservoir and Streamflow Routing
In hydrology, a reservoir is usually a natural pond that is enlarged or made using a dam to keep the water clean. Reservoirs or dams can be constructed in several ways, including controlling the existing watercourse, disrupting the watercourse to form embayment within it, by digging or building any number of retaining walls.
Water Resource Systems Analysis
Water resources are natural water sources that may be as useful as water sources. 97% of the world's water is saltwater and only 3% is pure water; just over two-thirds of this ice sheet is located in glaciers. The remaining pure frozen water is found primarily as groundwater, with only a small fraction present above the ground or in the air. Natural sources of freshwater include surface water, under river flow, groundwater, and ice water. Artificial water sources can include treated wastewater (recycled water) and saline seawater.
