4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define capacity in the context of reservoirs.
Think about what limits how much water can be held.
What does yield refer to?
Consider how we calculate reliable water supply.
What is the main factor affecting reservoir capacity?
Consider what can cause water losses.
True or False: Yield is the total storage capacity of a reservoir.
Think about the difference between supply rate and storage.
Design a strategy for a reservoir facing severe sedimentation issues. What methods would you propose to manage sediment, and how would this affect capacity?
Think about how these interventions would physically interact with the reservoir's environment.
Calculate the potential impact of reduced annual rainfall on a reservoir's yield. If a reservoir typically yields 2 million gallons per day but rainfall drops by 30%, how would you adjust operational strategies?
Factor in the yield percentage reduction and the importance of these figures in strategizing.
