Question 1

How does high-intensity rainfall affect depression storage?

  • Increases storage capacity
  • Overwhelms and causes runoff
  • No effect

💡 Hint: Consider what happens when the rain is too heavy for the ground.

Question 2

True or False: Low rainfall intensity can allow for complete absorption of water in depressions.

  • True

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a rainfall intensity of 50 mm/hr over a duration of one hour, discuss the potential for runoff if the site has a depression storage capacity of 40 mm.

💡 Hint: Think about how much water can be absorbed before overflowing.

Question 2

Analyze the impact of changing climate patterns on rainfall duration and intensity. Propose a water management strategy for a region expected to see more intense storms.

💡 Hint: Consider how communities can hold onto more water during heavy rains.
