4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is seepage in the context of canal losses?
Think about how water could escape from a canal.
What does evaporation refer to?
Consider the hot sun and water.
What is the largest contributor to canal losses?
Think of what leaks out through the canal walls.
True or False: Operational losses occur due to the maintenance of canals.
Poor management leads to more losses.
A canal is losing water due to seepage and evaporation. Calculate the total loss if seepage is 30% of the flow, and evaporation accounts for another 5%. What is the total percentage of water lost?
Just add the two percentages together.
You have a canal system with operational losses measured at 10%. If the total discharge is 1000 cubic meters, what is the effective water that reaches the crops after accounting for operational losses?
Calculate 10% and subtract from total.
