Question 2
A catchment of area 100 ha received a rainfall of 10 cm in 2 h due to storm. At the outlet of the catchment, the stream draining the catchment was dry before the storm and experienced a runoff lasting for 8 h with an average discharge value of 2 m3/s. the stream was again dry after the runoff event. What is the loss of water?

IV- Occurrence of observational error from a certain date.
Question 4
