Evaporation is 60 cm/a What is the runoff? 80-60=20 cm/a The soil water contains 20 cm water equivalent How many years will the water in the soil last if the temperature rises 5oC and P is 80 and E is 85 cm/a? Evaporative loss is 80-85=5cm/a Soil will be totally dry in 20(cm) / 5(cm/a) = 4a GEO 1111 - Streams
