Hydrologic Cycle:
DBU
Hydrological Cycle
The water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle, describes the continuous
movement of water on,above and below the earth surface. The sun, which
drives the water cycle, radiates solar energy on the oceans and land.
Key Hydrological Processes
Precipitation : Condensed water vapor that falls to the earth surface. Most
precipitation occurs as rain, but also includes snow, hail, fog drip, sleet, etc.
Runoff: The variety of ways by which water moves across the land. This
includes both surface runoff and channel runoff. As it flows, the water may
infiltrate into the ground, evaporate into the air, become stored in lakes or
reservoirs, or be extracted for agricultural or other human uses.
Infiltration: The flow of water from the ground surface into the ground.
Once infiltrated, the water becomes soil moisture or groundwater.
DBU
DBU
Subsurface Flow: The flow of water underground, in the vadose zone and
aquifers. Subsurface water may return to the surface (e.g. as a spring or by
being pumped) or eventually seep into the oceans. Water returns to the
land surface at lower elevation than where it infiltrated, under the force of
gravity or gravity induced pressures. Groundwater tends to move
slowly, and is replenished slowly, so it can remain in aquifers for thousands
of years.
Evaporation and transpiration: The transformation of water from liquid to
gas phases as it moves from the ground or bodies of water into the
overlying atmosphere. The source of energy for evaporation is primarily
solar radiation. Evaporation often implicitly includes transpiration from
plants, though together they are specifically referred to as
evapotranspiration.

Water quality considerations

Water quality considerations of sources are required for the following purposes
To evaluate and classify raw water quality
physical, chemical, and bacteriological parameters

raw water can be classified as having poor, fair, and good quality.
To identify sources of pollution

Surface water: urban runoff, agricultural runoff, industrial
discharge, and leachate from landfills;
Groundwater: infiltration from pit-latrines and septic tanks, landfill
leachate, and infiltration from polluted areas.
To assess the treatment required for beneficial uses

Reservoirs
The following investigations are required for reservoir
planning:
A. Topographic surveying- to produce a topo-map which will
be used as a base for
preparing

C. Hydrological investigations
determination
of rainfall, runoff, seepage, and

evaporation in the reservoir catchment from long
years of data.
These information are essential for estimating the reservoir

capacity and design of spill way.
DBU
Criteria for Selecting reservoir sites
DBU
Catchment geology- minimum percolation losses and high runoff

potential
Dam site- strong foundation with minimum seepage loss under the
dam.
Narrow valley- sites that resulting lesser dam length
Topography- should be such that large area and valuable
properties are not submerged
Site that creates deep reservoirs- this has the advantages of
minimizing the evaporation loss and submerged area when
compared to shallow reservoirs
Sites that ensure good water quality- avoid sites that are
downstream of waste discharges and tributaries with high silt loads
Volume of reservoirs
DBU
Yield is the amount of water that can be supplied from a

reservoir within a specified interval of time.
Safe yield or firm yield: is the maximum quantity of
water that can be guarantied during a critical dry
period.
the safe yield from a reservoir > maximum day demand
Methods to determine the storage volume of reservoirs:
mass curve method(Rippl) Method.
analytical method.
Mass curve method
reservoir capacity is determined from accumulated mass inflow and

accumulated demand curves.
Net Inflow= total Inflow-outflow (evaporation, seepage, d/s flow)
Procedure
DBU
Prepare accumulated mass inflow curve from the stream hydrograph

Prepare the accumulated demand curve on the same scale
Draw tangent lines that are parallel to the accumulated demand curve
at the high points of the accumulated mass curve (P1, P2, P3, etc)
Measure the vertical distances between the tangent lines and the mass
inflow curve (V1, V2, V3, etc.)
Determine the required reservoir storage capacity as the largest of the
vertical distances (V1, V2, V3, etc.)

Safe yield from a given reservoir capacity
DBU
Prepare the mass inflow curve.

From the apices A1, A2, A3 etc. of the mass curve, draw
tangents in such a way that their maximum departure from
the mass curve does not exceed the specified reservoir
capacity. The ordinates E1D1, E2D2, E3D3, etc. are all equal
to the reservoir capacity (say 1500 ha.m)
Measure the slopes of each of these tangents. The slopes
indicate the yield which can be attained in each year from
the reservoir of given capacity. The slope of the flattest
demand line is the firm yield.

Types of Dams
DBU
Impoundments: Embankment dams

Embankment dam-A dam constructed from natural materials
excavated or obtained nearby. The natural fill materials are placed

and compacted without the addition of any binding agent. Two typesEarth fill dam (if compacted soil constitutes over 50% of the dam
volume) and
Rock fill dam (over 50% of the material is coarse-grained material or
crushed rock with impervious membrane).
Advantages:
DBU
For sites in wide valleys and steep-sided gorges

Adaptability to a broad range of foundation conditions
Use of locally available natural materials
Impoundments: Concrete Dam

Disadvantages:
Easily damaged or destructed by overflow

leakage and internal erosion
They are gravity dam, arch dam, buttress dam, etc.

Gravity dam
DBU
Dependent upon its own mass for stability.
For gorges with very steep side slopes
It can be constructed by Masonry(stone or brick)
Shape: straight or curved
Dam height: can be very high for sound foundation

Impoundments: Concrete Dams...

Arch dam
Functions structurally as a horizontal arch, transmitting the
major portion of the water load to the abutments or
valley sides rather than to the floor of the valley.
structurally more efficient, needs less concrete volume
Buttress dam
consists of a continuous upstream face supported at
regular intervals by downstream buttresses.
DBU
Catchment protection
Activities that take place within the reservoir catchment have impacts on the quality and quantity
of water stored behind the dam. Catchment protection primarily focuses on maintaining the
water quality and capacity of the reservoir. It involves activities that include
DBU
Minimization of diffuse pollution from urban runoff

Minimization of agricultural diffuse pollution
Controlling discharges from point sources such as
wastewater treatment plant, industries, etc
Limitation of soil erosion through soil conservation
measures, such as afforestation, etc.
Providing corridors along tributary streams, rivers, and the
reservoir

DBU
Occurrence of Groundwater
DBU
Groundwater takes 0.62% of the total water in the

hydrosphere but 99 % of the fresh water
Of 0.31% of the total water in the hydrosphere has depth less
than 800m.
sand, gravel, and sandstones good aquifers
Limestone and shale that have caverns, fissures or faults can
also be considered as good aquifers.
Clays ability to transmit water is very poor due to the very
small particle sizes (< 0.0004 mm).
Groundwater
Groundwater is the water beneath the ground surface contained in void spaces (pore spaces between
rock and soil particles, or bedrock fractures).
Basic Terms
Aquifer
An aquifer is an underground layer of water-bearing permeable rock or unconsolidated

materials(gravel, sand, silt, or clay) from which groundwater can be usefully extracted using a water
well.
Water table
The water table is the level at which the groundwater pressure is equal to atmospheric pressure.
Aquitard
An aquitard is a zone within the earth that restricts the flow of groundwater from one aquifer to another.
Aquitards comprise layers of either clay or non-porous rock with low hydraulic conductivity.
DBU
Unconfined aquifer
It is an aquifer with the water table as its upper boundary. Because the aquifer is not under pressure the
water level in a well is the same as the water table outside the well.
Confined aquifer
It is an aquifer found between two relatively impermeable layers.
Artesian aquifer/well
It is a confined aquifer containing groundwater that will flow upward through a well, called an artesian
well, without the need for pumping. Water may even reach the ground surface if the natural pressure is
high enough, in which case the well is called a flowing artesian well.
Water well
A water well is an excavation or structure created in the ground by digging, driving, boring or drilling
to access groundwater in underground aquifers.
DBU
Borehole
It is a narrow shaft drilled in the ground as part of a groundwater site assessment.
Piezometric surface
The imaginary surface that everywhere coincides with the piezometric head of the water in the aquifer.In
areas of artesian ground water, it is above the land surface.
Base flow
Base flow is the portion of stream flow that comes from groundwater. It sustains flows in a river
during the dry periods between rainstorms.
Groundwater Recharge
The natural or intentional infiltration (percolation) of surface water into the groundwater system.
Fossil water
Fossil water is groundwater that has remained in an aquifer for thousands or even millions of years.
When geologic changes seal the aquifer off from further recharging, the water becomes trapped inside.

transmits large quantities of water.
DBU
Aquifer parameters
(The water yield capacity of aquifers depends on different parameters)
DBU
Aquifer parameters
Storage coefficient (S): the volume of water that an aquifer

releases from or takes into storage per unit surface area of the
aquifer per unit change in head
Hydraulic gradient (dh/dx): the slope of the piezometric surface

or water table line in m/m. The magnitude of the head
determines the pressure on the groundwater to move and its
velocity.
