(20%) Route the following inflow hydrograph using the storage indication method:
Time (hr) | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
Inflow (m3/s) | 10 | 20 | 50 | 80 | 90 | 100 | 90 | 60 | 50 | 40 | 30 | 20 | 10 |
Assume baseflow is 10 m3/s, K = 4 hr, Δt = 1 hr.

(20%) Given the following inflow hydrograph to a certain
stream channel reach, calculate the outflow by the Muskingum method.
Time (hr) | 0 | 3 | 6 | 9 | 12 | 15 | 18 | 21 | 24 | 27 | 30 | 33 | 36 |
Inflow (m3/s) | 100 | 120 | 150 | 200 | 250 | 275 | 250 | 210 | 180 | 150 | 120 | 110 | 100 |
Assume baseflow is 100 m3/s, K = 2.4 hr, X = 0.1, and Δt = 3 hr.

(20%) Use the Clark method to derive a 3-hr unit hydrograph
for a catchment with the following time-area diagram:
Time (hr) | 0-3 | 3-6 |
6-9 | 9-12 |
Area (km2) | 57 | 72 |
39 | 15 |
Use K = 3 hr, and Δt = 3 hr.

(40%) Please answer each question in one clear-and-concise paragraph:
- In reservoir routing, when the inflow and the outflow coincide, the outflow is a maximum. Explain why.
- In reservoir routing, there is no apparent lag between the start of inflow and the start of outflow. Explain why.
- What is McCarthy's contribution to hydrology? What is Cunge's contribution to hydrology?
- What is Seddon's contribution to hydrology? What is Hayami's contribution to hydrology?
- Why does the time-area method overestimate the flood peak?
- What is the difference between the original Clark unit hydrograph (1945)
and Prof. Ponce's version (1989)?
- How can the method of cascade of linear reservoirs be related to basin geomorphology?
- Explain the role of vegetation on infiltration.
