Question
The catchment area of an irrigation reservoir is 60 km^2. The constant water spread during October 2006 was 2 km^2. During that month, the uniform precipitation over the catchment was recorded to be 100 mm, 50% of precipitation reaches the reservoir. Outflow at a constant rate of 1 m^3/sec was recorded in the month of October. Assuming seepage losses to be 50% of the evaporation losses. Find out the daily rate of evaporation (mm/day/m*2) for October 2006. (Note: The number of days in the month of October is 31 days) ≈3.441 mm/day/m*2 ≈8.825 mm/day/m*2 4.344 mm/day/m*2 ≈6.445 mm/day/m*2
