Measurements of a water-balance have been made for 1 year period on a lake with an area of 0.9 km2 with the following results: P = 1500 mm, Qsi = 0.16 m3s-1 and Qso = 0.18 m3s-1. At the end of the year, the lake surface elevation was 40 mm lower than at the beginning. Estimate the lake evaporation (in mm) for that year?

Given: Period of measurement = 1 year Area of lake = 0.9 km2 Precipitation, P = 1500 mm Surface…

Question

Measurements of a water-balance have been made for 1 year period on a lake with an area of 0.9 km² with the following results: P = 1500 mm, Q_si = 0.16 m³s^-1 and Q_so = 0.18 m³s^-1. At the end of the year, the lake surface elevation was 40 mm lower than at the beginning. Estimate the lake evaporation (in mm) for that year?
