Hydrologic Engineering Methods for Water Resources Development. Volume 8. Reservoir Yield.

Abstract

The report is Volume 8 of a 12-volume report prepared by The Hydrologic Engineering Center as a part of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' contribution to the International Hydrological Decade. Procedures can be described which can be used to determine the relationship between reservoir storage capacity and reservoir yield analysis are described in detail. Other topics include: Guidelines for selection of technical procedure; data requirements; use of generalized and simulated data; establishment of study criteria; and development and use of rule curves. Advantages and limitations of the various methods are discussed. A description of the generalized computer program entitled 'Partial Duration - Independent Low Flow Events' is included as an appendix.
