Upload NowSeveral types of empirical expressions have been developed from time to time to predict peak rate of runoff from agricultural watersheds. Some of the most common expressions are described below: 1. Rational Method: The oldest and the most famous hydrological model of predicting peak rate of runoff is the rational formula, expressed as: q = […]

Estimating the Volume of Runoff | Soil Erosion
Article shared by :
After reading this article you will learn about estimating the volume of runoff. Knowledge of the volume of runoff from a watershed is necessary to design the water storage system and surplussing arrangements. Different mathematical models that are developed to predict runoff deal mainly with precipitation characteristics affecting runoff amount and peak rates. In an […]
