Expert Solution
Step 1:- Relationship between base flow and direct runoff
While plotting a discharge-Time graph , the base flow is achieved by joining with a straight line the point representing the beginning of of runoff to the point on the limb representing the end of surface runoff.
Let us consider the graph below ,
Let 'P' represent the beginning of direct run-off and let Q represent the point marking the end of direct runoff , then the base flow is represented by the straight line joining P and Q.
