Ten Most Widely Used Methods to Derive Unit Hydrograph from Flood Hydrograph

[Mrinmoy Majumder]

Unit Hydrograph is a hydrological tool used to estimate the rainfall-runoff relationship in a watershed. It is of great importance in hydrological studies as it helps in predicting the flow rate and volume of water that will occur at a particular point in a river or stream, given a certain amount of rainfall. By using this tool, hydrologists can predict the peak flow rate and duration of a flood, estimate the volume of runoff, and plan for effective water management strategies. The significance of Unit Hydrograph lies in its ability to provide valuable insights into the hydrological behavior of a watershed, helping in flood forecasting, flood control, and water resource management. There are various methods by which you can derive a unit hydro graph from a flood hydrograph. The ten most popular methods are given in the link below :
