Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Analyze a watershed region where interception accounts for a significant percentage of annual precipitation. How would this affect flood control measures?

💡 Hint: Consider how different types of vegetation can change the dynamics of water flow.

Question 2

Calculate the expected runoff for a region with known interception values. Given 100mm of rainfall, if interception loss is 20%, what is the expected runoff?

💡 Hint: Use the formula: Runoff = Rainfall - (Rainfall x Interception Percentage).
