Question: A rain storm | lasting for four hours was recorded at three gauges ( A , B , C ) within a catchment of 5

A rain storm|lasting for four hours was recorded at three gauges (A, B, C) within a catchment of 500km2.
The rainfall hyetographs recorded at each gauge are presented in Table Q1.1. The 10mm,1 hour unit
hydrograph for the catchment is shown in Table Q1.2.
Table Q1.1
Table Q1.2
(i) Determine the rainfall hyetograph for the entire catchment if the areas obtained from Thiessen
polygons are 200km2 and 120km2 for gauges A and B respectively.
(ii) If losses are a constant 5mmhr throughout the storm, determine the hydrograph of the quick
response runoff.
