ACTIVITY FOR MIDTERMS

DETERMINE THE AVERAGE AREAL RAINFALL (IN MILLIMETERS) FOR THE

WATERSHED SHOWN BELOW FOR EACH OF THE METHODS DISCUSSED.
THERE ARE SIX (6) GAUGING STATIONS WITH CORRESPONDING CATCHES
SHOWN ON THE TABLE. ALL COORDINATES OF THE GAUGING AND
WATERSHED BOUNDARY POINTS ARE ALSO SHOWN. USE THE THREE
METHODS AND SHOW YOUR SOLUTIONS:
1. STATION-AVERAGE METHOD
2. THEISSEN POLYGON METHOD
3. ISOHYETAL METHOD
