Q3 Hydrologic Budget The water budget for December 26th at Santa Fe Dam includes: precipitation of 3.20 inches, evaporation 0.25 inches, surface water inflow is 2,501 cfs and surface outflow is 2,285 cfs and a change in lake depth (increase) of 3.9 inches. The average surface area of the lake is approximately 752 acres. Within you scratch paper draw a schematic of the water budget, provide the governing question and determine the net groundwater flow in ft/day. Please round to the nearest tenth. (Note: Assume that the groundwater flow is through flow, thus an input. If your result is positive your assumption is correct. If your (answer) result is negative the groundwater is infiltration. Remember to keep track of your units and sign).

Q3 Hydrologic Budget
The water budget for December 26th at Santa Fe Dam includes: precipitation of 3.20 inches,
evaporation 0.25 inches, surface water inflow is 2,501 cfs and surface outflow is 2,285 cfs and a
change in lake depth (increase) of 3.9 inches. The average surface area of the lake is approximately
752 acres.
Within you scratch paper draw a schematic of the water budget, provide the governing question
and determine the net groundwater flow in ft/day. Please round to the nearest tenth.
(Note: Assume that the groundwater flow is through flow, thus an input. If your result is positive
your assumption is correct. If your
(answer) result is negative the groundwater is infiltration. Remember to keep track of your units
