2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the theoretical maximum rainfall represented by P₀?
Think about rainfall at a single point without considering area.
What does the decay constant 'k' indicate?
Think about how rainfall spreads out over larger areas.
What does P₀ represent in DAD relationships?
Consider what maximum rainfall means in the absence of area.
True or False: The decay constant 'k' indicates higher rainfall depth with larger areas.
Think about how rainfall spreads across larger spaces.
Consider a region with a total area of 50 km². If the maximum point rainfall (P₀) is 80 mm and the decay constant (k) is 0.05, calculate the average precipitation using the empirical formula.
Make sure to apply the decay formula correctly with the given values.
Discuss the impact of using an incorrect decay constant in flood estimation in the context of DAD relations.
Think about how a higher or lower value of k might affect rainfall predictions.
