Depth of rainfall given volume of rainfall Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depth of Rainfall = Volume of Rainfall/Area of Accumulated Rain
d = V/A
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Depth of Rainfall - (Measured in Centimeter) - Depth of Rainfall over a specified Catchment is the measure of accumulated precipitation.
Volume of Rainfall - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Rainfall over a catchment area.
Area of Accumulated Rain - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of accumulated rain over a specified catchment.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume of Rainfall: 50 Cubic Meter --> 50 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Area of Accumulated Rain: 25 Square Meter --> 25 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

d = V/A --> 50/25

Evaluating ... ...

d = 2

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.02 Meter -->20 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

20 Millimeter <-- Depth of Rainfall

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Total Runoff over Catchment

Go Runoff Volume = Surface Runoff+Interflow+Baseflow+Channel Precipitation

Correction Ratio in Test for Consistency of Record

Go Correction Ratio = Corrected Slope of Double-Mass Curve/Original Slope of Double-Mass Curve

Depth of rainfall given volume of rainfall

Go Depth of Rainfall = Volume of Rainfall/Area of Accumulated Rain

Volume of rainfall

Go Volume of Rainfall = Area of Accumulated Rain*Depth of Rainfall

Dredge or Burge Formula

Go Peak Discharge = 19.6*Catchment Area/(Length of Basin)^(2/3)

Depth of rainfall given volume of rainfall Formula

Depth of Rainfall = Volume of Rainfall/Area of Accumulated Rain
d = V/A

What is Total Runoff & Amount of Rainfall?

The total runoff is equal to the total precipitation less the losses caused by evapotranspiration (loss to the atmosphere from soil surfaces and plant leaves), storage (as in temporary ponds), and other such abstractions.
The amount of rainfall is usually given as a depth over a specified area, assuming that all the rainfall accumulates over the surface and the unit for measuring the amount of rainfall.

What is Catchment Area?

A catchment area is the area from which rainfall flows into a river, lake, or reservoir. The catchment area is the first point of contact for rainfall. For the vast majority of tank-based rainwater harvesting systems, the catchment area is the roof surface. Each drop of precipitation that falls into a catchment area eventually ends up in the same river going to the sea if it doesn't evaporate.

How to Calculate Depth of rainfall given volume of rainfall?

Depth of rainfall given volume of rainfall calculator uses Depth of Rainfall = Volume of Rainfall/Area of Accumulated Rain to calculate the Depth of Rainfall, The Depth of rainfall given volume of rainfall is defined as the depth over a specified area, assuming that all the rainfall accumulates over the surface. Depth of Rainfall is denoted by d symbol.

How to calculate Depth of rainfall given volume of rainfall using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Depth of rainfall given volume of rainfall, enter Volume of Rainfall (V) & Area of Accumulated Rain (A) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Depth of rainfall given volume of rainfall calculation can be explained with given input values -> 200 = 50/25.
