Traditionally, it is an engineering discipline related to water
o Hydrological Science
o Engineering Hydrology
- How much water is there?
- Where is the water coming from?
- Where it is going?
- What if it is too little?
- What if it is too much?
- How to deal with or reduce the related problems?

What is hydrology?
• Hydrology is the study of water, its physical properties
and distribution on and beneath the surface of the earth.
• Basically, we’re going to be concerned with how much
water ends up in the various parts of the water cycle both
spatially and temporally.
• Take a look at the syllabus to see how we’ll approach this

| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 8


• Hydrology is an earth science dealing with the occurrence, distribution,
movement, and properties of waters of the earth and its atmosphere.
[Viessman & Lewis].

• Scientific study of water and its properties, distribution, and effects on


Earth’s surface, soil, and atmosphere [Richard Mc Cuen].

• The study of water in all its forms and from all its origins to all its
destinations on the earth [Rafael L.Bras].

• Study about water (quantitative and qualitative). In Civil Engineering,


quantitative hydrology is given more emphasis because it relates to
infrastructural development.

• Hydrology is a science of water; its existence, its cycle, its distribution,


physical and chemical properties
• .
• Hydrology is a science to study the processes of controlling surface
water of the earth.
| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 9
Hydrology as a Science

“Hydrology is the science that treats the


waters of the earth, their occurrence,
circulation and distribution, their chemical
and physical properties, and their reaction
with their environment, including their
relation to living things. The domain of
hydrology embraces the full life history of
water on the earth”

| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 10


Hydrology as a Profession

• A profession is a “professional competence


requiring specialized knowledge, which has as its
prime purpose the rendering of a public service”
• What hydrologists do:
– Water resources – water withdrawal and
instream uses
– Water Supply
– Water Control – flood and drought mitigation
– Pollution Control – point and nonpoint sources

The hydrologic cycle is the continuous
movement of water on earth’s surface from
oceans and freshwater sources to the air,
land, and back to the bodies of water which
results in fresh water continuously being
renewed.

Water never leaves the Earth. It is constantly


being cycled through the atmosphere, ocean,
and land. The water cycle is crucial to the
existence of life on our planet and driven by
energy from the sun.

Evaporation is the process by which water
is converted from its liquid form to its vapor
form and thus transferred from land and
water masses to the atmosphere. About
86% of all evaporation is from the oceans,
while the remaining 14% is from inland and
vegetation About 86% of all evaporation is
from the oceans, while the remaining 14%
is from inland and vegetation

The rate of evaporation depends upon:


• Wind speed: the higher the wind speed, the more evaporation
• Temperature: the higher the temperature, the more evaporation
• Humidity: the lower the humidity, the more evaporation

| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 45


 Transpiration is the process
by which plants release water
vapor into the atmosphere
(plants lose water out of their
leaves).

 Evapotranspiration is the
total loss of water from an
area, equaling the sum of
water lost from evaporation
and transpiration.

| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 46


 Condensation is the process in which water
vapor in the air is changed into liquid water.

 Responsible for cloud formation.

 Water vapor is losing energy.

 Warm air can hold MORE water vapor


than cool air.

 Molecules of water are becoming more


organized going a gas to a liquid state.
 When a large amount of water vapor
condenses, it results in the formation of
clouds.

| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 47


 Any form of water falling from the
clouds in the form of rain,
freezing rain, sleet, snow, or hail is
known as precipitation.

Precipitation occurs when so


much water has condensed that
the air cannot hold it anymore. The
clouds get heavy and water falls
back to the earth in the form of rain,
hail, sleet or snow.

Sleet

 Infiltration is the entry of water into
the soil surface.
 Infiltration results in the growth of
vegetation and helps to sustain the
continuous ground water supply to
wells, springs, and streams.
 The rate of infiltration is influenced
by the following factors:
 Physical characteristics of the soil
 Soil cover (i.e. plants, vegetation)
 Water content of the soil
 Soil temperature
 Rainfall intensity

| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 50


 Percolation is the downward
movement of water through soil and
rock.
 Occurs beneath the root zone.

 Ground water percolates through soil


similar to water filling a sponge
 Water moves from space to space
along fractures in rock, through sand
and gravel, or through channels in
formations such as cavernous
limestone.

 The terms infiltration and percolation


are often used interchangeably.

| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 51


 Runoff is the movement of water,
usually from precipitation, across
the Earth's surface towards stream
channels, lakes, oceans, or
depressions in the Earth's surface.

 The characteristics that affect the


rate of runoff include:
 Rainfall duration
 Rainfall intensity
 Elevation (slope)
 Soil type
 Vegetation

HYDROLOGY | watershed | definition

“A watershed is the natural unit of


land surface, upon which water
from direct precipitation,
snowmelt, and other storage
converges downhill to a single
point or a common outlet, usually
the exit of a basin, where the
water enters another water body
such as a river, lake, reservoir or
the ocean”
Also known as:
• Catchment
• Catchment area
• Catchment basin
• Drainage area
• River basin
• Water basin
| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 59
What is watershed ?

• Drainage basin.
• Catchment Area
A well defined area of land intercepts the rainfall
and transports it to the stream.
• A topographically delineated area drained by a stream
system, or, the total land above some point, on a
river/stream that drains past that point.
• An area having a common outlet for its surface runoff.
• All land and water w/in the confines of a drainage divine
[Soil & Water Conservation]
• Natural unit of land upon which water from precipitation
or any storage collects in a channel and flows downhill to a
common outlet

| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 60


• River basin ~ embraces a much larger
area from the river mouth to many
upstream watersheds

• Drainage divide (watershed boundary) ~


an imaginary line that outline the
boundary of the drainage basin

• Point of analysis (point of concentration)


~ point on the stream where the basin
starts

| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 61


| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 62
Principles of delineating a drainage basin from a
topographical map

1. Trace/outline the main stem of the stream that


you want to examine
2. Draw the divide perpendicular to contour lines
3. Draw the divide along a ridge and across a
saddle
4. Never draw the divide along or across a
swale/stream/river
5. Close boundary

| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 63


TYPICAL DRAINAGE BASIN
Overland flow is directed by gravity away
from the divide and toward the stream

EXAMPLE 1

Estimate water loss due to E that


occurs within one year period
from a pond that has a surface
area of 1000 km2 if the average
annual rainfall of the area is 135
cm. The increase in pond depth
during the same period is 10 cm
and the average flow to the pond
is 1.56 x 106 m3/day. Neglect the
groundwater flow. Use 365 days
per year

A multi-purpose reservoir is used


as a recreational and irrigation
water supply has a surface area
of 12.8 km2. If the evaporation of
the reservoir is 3.5 mm/day,
precipitation is 90 mm/ month,
calculate the change of reservoir
water level for the particular. The
inflow to the reservoir in June is
9.5 x 105 m3/month. Assume the
reservoir has a vertical wall.

| Tarmizi Ismail | FKA | UTM | 81


EXAMPLE 3

The only inflow to a reservoir that has an area of 60Ha is from surface
runoff. The source of this runoff is from rainfall in a catchment that
has an area of 37 km2. Surface runoff can generally be estimated by;
Q = CPA, where
C = runoff coefficient [0 < C  1]
P = Average monthly catchment precipitation
A = catchment area

The runoff coefficient C is influenced by I, ET of the catchment and


other losses.

Change in storage, S in the reservoir in a month is 116,000m3, the


outflow from the reservoir is 600,000m3/month, and ET in the
reservoir is3mm/day. Estimate C if the average rainfall in the
catchment to the reservoir is 50mm/month. Assume direct
precipitation in the reservoir is simliar to catchment mean average
rainfall. One month = 30days.

a) Before rainfall, water level of a reservoir with
surface area of 5km2 was at 471m (Refer Figure
1a). In a week, a 20mm rainfall was recorded at a
nearby station. The inflow to the reservoir resulted
from that rainfall is 10m3/s with a continuous
outflow from the reservoir is 5m3/s. Assume there
is no losses from the reservoir except evaporation
at 3mm/day.
i. Calculate the total storage in reservoir after a
week.
ii. If this situation is continuously occurred for 15
days (with rainfall is 20mm/week, evaporation
is 3mm/day, constant inflow and outflow of
respectively 10m3/s and 5m3/s), what will be
the water level of the reservoir after the end of
that period.

A 10 km2 irrigation project has been
developed in a 800 km2 catchment area
resulting in only 790 km2 are left without any
vegetation. The average annual precipitation
is 2100 mm and the average annual
evaporation from the non-vegetated
catchment is 1200 mm. Compute the average
daily evapotranspiration from the irrigated
area in mm/day if the average discharge at the
outlet of the whole catchment area are
22.5 m3/s. It is suggested to calculate the
mass balance in cubic meter
