The water elevation of Lake Ontario is 246 ft and a surface area of 4.69x106 acres. The annual inputs and outputs to the lake are 40.0 inches of precipitation, 36.3 inches of evaporation, 3.0x104 cfs of runoff, 2.45x105 cfs of stream inflow, and 2.70x105 cfs of outflow. Groundwater flow into Lake Ontario is minimal and considered negligible in water balance.
a) Make a tabulated water budget showing the inputs and outputs in metres per year and calculate the change in storage.
b) Do the inputs balance the outputs and what does the budget reveal about the elevation of the lake at the end of the year?
Homework Answers
the answered b question is for
the elevation of water level at the end of the
year=(129.75/0.3048)=425.68ft
the final water level is greater than the initial water level which is 246ft.

Daily water balance is done for a lake (300 acres of surface area) that is used as water supply resource for a community. During the previous 24-hr period the average inflow was 200 cfs, the average outflow (including water extracted for public supply) was 80 cfs, total precipitation was 2 in. and the pan evaporation near the lake indicated a net reduction of 0.3 in. Infiltration losses of the soil and bottom of the lake have a constant infiltration rate...

You are performing a study of evaporation from Lake Patagonia in southern Arizona. The inflow of water is measured at a nearby USGS gauging station immediately upgrading of the lake and averages about 15.8 cubic feet per second (cfs) for a 30-day period. precipitation in the area totaled 4.5 inches during the same period. The lake has a surface area of 265 acres and you can assume the sides of the lake are vertical. At the beginning of the study...

A lake with a drainage area AD has a surface area of AL and an average depth of zL. The long-term rates of precipitation and evapotranspiration for the portion of the drainage basin are PD and eD, respectively. For the lake itself the average rate of precipitation and evaporation are PL and eL, respectively. Average rate of stream outflow is Q. There is no groundwater inflow or outflow to the basin. a. Identify the units (Length[L], Time [T], Mass [M],...

Determine the minimum surface area in acres of an irrigation reservoir so that the drawdown over August is no more than 10 ft. the drainage basin feeding into the reservoir, including the reservoir itself, is 100 mi 2. Assume that 35% of the rain falling on the basin runs off the reservoir. Assume groundwater flow into and out of the basin is negligible. Determine the irrigation water needed from the evapotranspiration requirement from beans growing on 40mi 2 at 35...

Question 2- Surface area of a lake is 400 km' and annual precipitation is 32.5 cm. Inflow rate of stream is 2.54 m/s and outflow rate of stream is 2.67 m/s. Water surface level in the lake is increased by 22 mm during the year. Neglect the infiltration in the lake and compute the evaporation height in the lake for the related year.

9. A lake has a surface area of 850,000 m 2. For a given month (30 days), the lake has an inflow of 1.7 m23/s and an outflow of 1.3mA3/s. The water level in the lake was raised by 1.0 m. The total precipitation for the month is 23 cm. Assume that seepage loss is negligible. Determine the evaporation loss (in cm) for the lake
