Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A basin has a safe yield of 1000 m³/day and a maximum yield of 3000 m³/day. If the average daily withdrawal is 800 m³, what is the sustainable withdrawal rate?

💡 Hint: Focus on the definition of safe yield.

Question 2

Assuming a basin has a total storage capacity of 5000 m³ and a mass curve indicates inflow provides 3000 m³, how much additional storage is needed to meet a demand of 4500 m³?

💡 Hint: Assess the difference between storage needs and available inflow.
