  5. Precipitation Evaporation Infiltration Unsaturated Water Table Saturated Overland Flow Throughflow Runoff

  6. Precipitation Evaporation Infiltration Unsaturated Water Table Saturated Overland Flow Throughflow Groundwater Flow Runoff

  7. RUNOFF • Runoff in response to a storm is therefore the sum of the following contributions at any moment in time: • Overland Flow (rapid response) • Through Flow (intermediate response) • Groundwater Flow (slow response)

  8. The graph below displays some measure of water in the river at a particular point of observation as it varies over the course of time, and is generically known as a HYDROGRAPH.
