6- Maximum annual rainfall depth data are fitted with a distribution that is positively skewed (i.e., it has a longer tail to the right). If the mean value for the distribution is 4.22 in, then the rainfall depth with return period 2 years will be (use the next page table): (5 p) (A) Strictly less than 4.22 in (B) Equal to 4.22 in (C) Strictly larger than 4.22 in (D) None of the above
A drainage basin has a area of 7322 km2. The average annual precipitation for this area is 909 mm. The average surface water flow at the outlet of the catchment is 21.4 x 108 m3/year and the average groundwater flow out of the basin is 94.6 mm/year. Assume trailing zeros are significant if present. Determine the annual average evaporation in mm/year. (give your answer to one decimal place)
QI. (a) Describe the Rational' method of designing surface water drainage systems. Define fully any terms used in the description. Discuss the assumptions made in applying the rational method, and comment upon the procedure used to predict the peak flow for a given return period. (b) At the beginning of the month of June, water level of a reservoir with surface area of 7km? was at 20m (Refer to reservoir characteristic curve in Figure Qla). Average longterm monthly rainfall for the month of June recorded at five raingages is summarized in Table Q1 (assuming the same average amount of rainfall is also recorded in the reservoir). The inflow to the reservoir X, located at the downstream catchment outfall, resulted from that rainfall can be estimated as Qin = 0.65PA where P is mean areal rainfall (to be estimated by Thiessen Polygon) from a 36km? catchment area A, schematically shown in Figure lb. An average monthly withdrawal of 6MCM from the reservoir is required for water supply…
An effective rainfall of 2 hour duration produced a flood hydrograph peak of 200 m³/s. The flood hygrograph has a base flow of 20 m³/s. If the spatial average rainfall in the watershed for the duration of storm is 2 cm and the average loss rate is 0.4 cm/hour, the peak of 2-hour unit hygrograph (in m³/s-cm up to one decimal place) is
