A unit hydrograph for the Missouri Ozark region.

Author

Melvin G. Schaefer

Abstract

"Eleven small watersheds from the Missouri Ozark region are used in generating a synthetic unit hydrograph. The analysis is composed of three parts: First, a prediction equation is developed which correlates the time lag parameter with the physical features of the watershed. Second, an equation is developed which predicts the peak flow ordinate for 30-, 60- and 120-minute unit hydrographs. Third, an average dimensionless unit hydrograph is determined"-- Abstract, p. iii
