What is Understanding Run Off in Hydrology about?
Run off is defined as the portion of rainfall that flows over the land surface to rivers, lakes or oceans. Runoff occurs when rainfall exceeds the rate of water infiltration into the soil. Once infiltration is met, water begins to fill basins and can flow freely. Factors like rainfall intensity, duration and landscape morphology affect runoff rates and volumes. Measurement of river flow presents fewer difficulties than estimating subsurface flow components, though high flows pose challenges.
