Estimating change in storage of a lake


Question1. Lake Kickapoo, TX, is approximately 12 km in length by the 2.5 km in width.  The inflow for month of April is 3.26 m3/s and outflow is 2.93 m3/s.  The total monthly precipitation is 15.2 cm and evaporation is 10.2 cm.  The seepage is estimated to be 2.5 cm.  Estimate the change in storage throughout the month of April.

Question2. A city has 6 wells in operation to supply 4.5 million gallons for each day. What is this volume in acre-feet? Suppose pumping is evenly distributed, what is the well yield from each well, in gallons for each minute?

Question3. Find out the water level rise in an unconfined aquifer produced by the seasonal precipitation offour (4) inches. The aquifer porosity is 20%. Suppose the aquifer material was completely dry and there are no other inflows or outflows from aquifer. What would the water level rise be if the aquifer material had moisture content of 3 5%?

Question4. Convert to 1000 g/m/ft2 to ft/d and m/s
