Table 16-1: Ratios for dimensionless unit hydrograph and mass curve

Description

A table containing the time, discharge, and mass curve ratios.

Usage

uh_ratios_masscurve

Format

A data.table data frame with 33 rows and 3 variables:

Time ratios (t/Tp)

"ratio of the time of DUH coordinate to time to peak of the DUH"

Discharge ratios (q/qp)

"ratio of discharge at a certain time to the peak discharge of the unit hydrograph (UH)"

Mass curve ratios (Qa/Q)

ratio of "accumulated volume at time" to the "total volume"
