1. Determining GW recharge from baseflow (Meyboom Method)
Problem 1a.
Determine the amount of ground-water recharge that takes place from the end of the base recession of runoff year 1 to the start of the baseow recession of runoff year 2. The value of Q0 for the first recession is 760m3/s and it takes 6.3 months(mo) for the discharge to reach 0.1Q0 :
Compute the volume of annual recharge that occur between runoff year 1 and runoff year2.
Problem 1b.Semilogarithmic stream hydrograph showing baseflow recessions.
Analysis of baseflow recession curves from a drainage basin has yielded a recession constant 1.55x10-2/day when discharge is in ft3/sec and time is in days.
1. If a recession begins with a discharge of 328 ft3/s and t is in days, what will be the flow after 35 d and 70 d?
2. If the recession begins with a discharge of 2356 ft3/s, what would be the flow in 5d?
Problem 1c.
The flow of a river at the start of a baseflow recession was 712 m3/s; after 60 day the flow declined to 523 m3/s.
1. What is the recession constant?
2. What would be the flow after 112 day?
Problem 1d.
This figure is the hydrograph of a river with a long summer baseflow recession. Compute the volume of annual recharge that occur between runoff year 1 and runoff year 2.
