Explain various methods of obtaining mean precipitation with equations.

The normal annual rainfall of stations A, B, C and D in a catchment are 809.7, 675.9, 762.8, 920.1 mm respectively. In the year 2023, the station D was inoperative while stations A, B, C recorded annual rainfall of 911.1, 722.3, 798.9 mm respectively. Use normal ratio method to estimate the missing rainfall data at D in the year 2023.

Discuss various factors affecting evaporation. What are the possible sources of error in the measurement of the rainfall.

The following meteorological data pertain to a large reservoir with water spread area $ 15 \, km^2 $. The data represents the average values for the day. Water temperature $ = 24^\circ C $, Air Temperature $ = 26^\circ C $, Atmospheric pressure 752 mm of mercury, wind speed at 0.5 m above G.L $ = 25.3 \, km/h $, relative humidity $ r = 46 \% $. Estimate average daily evaporation from the reservoir and evaporation loss from the reservoir for a period of one week using Meyer's and Rohwer's equations.

What is runoff? Explain with sketch different types of catchments.

Explain the rainfall-runoff relationship using regression analysis (any one method).

Define "unit hydrograph". What are the assumptions, uses and limitations of hydrograph theory?

A 6h storm produced rainfall intensity of 7, 18, 25, 12, 10 and 3 mm/h in successive one hour interval over a basin of 800 sq.km. The resulting runoff is observed to be 2640 hectare-metres. Determine the $ \phi $-index for the basin.

Explain with equations of various types of irrigation efficiencies.

The gross commanded area for an irrigation canal is 20,000 hectares out of which 75% is culturable CA. Intensity of irrigation is 40% for rabi and 10% for rice. If Kor period is 4 weeks for rabi and 2.5 weeks for rice, determine outlet discharge. Outlet factors for rabi and rice may be taken as 1800 ha/cumec and 775 ha/cumec respectively. Also calculate delta for each case.
