Two storms, each of 4-hr duration and having rainfall excess of 3.0 and 2.0 cm, respectively, occur successively. The 2 cm excess rainfall follows the 3 cm rain. The ordinates of the 4- hr unit hydrograph for a catchment are given in the following table, Calculate the resulting Direct Runoff Hydrograph for the first and second period.
