the flow / volume of flow Explanation: The volume of water flowing into the lake or reservoir from the surrounding basin. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 13 mins (2016-01-15 16:47:28 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Gasto medio anual aportado a la presa de Valle de Bravo: 2.560 m3/seg http://www.amanalco.gob.mx/Hidrografía.php Surface runoff (also known as overland flow) is the flow of water that occurs when excess stormwater, meltwater, or other sources flows over the earth's surface. This might occur because soil is saturated to full capacity, because rain arrives more quickly than soil can absorb it, or because impervious areas (roofs and pavement) send their runoff to surrounding soil that cannot absorb all of it. Surface runoff is a major component of the water cycle. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_runoff |
