A lake with a surface area of 5km2 had a water surface elevation of 103.2m above datum at the beginning of a certain month. In that month the lake received an average inflow of 6m³/s from surface runoff source. In the same period the outflow from the lake had an average value of 6.5 m³/s. Further, in that month, the lake received a rainfall of 145mm and the evaporation from the lake surface was estimated as 6.10cm. Calculate the water surface elvation of the lake at the end of the month.

Please provide an explanation for evry formula and solution. And be clear with your answer. In 1997, Upper Grand watershed near Maputi, Bukidnon with an area of 4350 sq.km received 77.7 cm of precipitation. The average rate of flow measured in the Grand River, which drained the watershed, was 39.6 cu.m/s. Infiltration was estimated to occur at an average rate of 9.2 x 10-7 cm/s. Evapotranspiration was estimated to be 45 cm/yr. What is the change in storage in the watershed in cm/yr. Also, calculate the runoff coefficient for this watershed.
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)
A reservoir had a water surface elevation of 110 m above the datum at the beginning of the month. In the same month, the reservoir received an average inflow of 7.5 cms (m3/s) from surface runoff sources. For the same period, the outflow from the reservoir had an average value of 5 cms. Further, in the same month, the reservoir received a rainfall of 180 mm and losses due to evaporation of 5 cm. Assume the area of the lake is 50 km2 acres and assume no contribution from groundwater storage. What is the water surface elevation of the reservoir after the month?
