Question

AT&T; LTE 8:18 PM ? ?learn.sfsu.edu The Los Angeles DWP has been diverting water from Lee Vining, Rush, and Mill Creeks (below the gaging stations) for many years, running the diverted water through the Owens Valley aqueduct to Los Angeles. These diversions average 103,408 acre-feet per year (ac-ft/yr). Note: 1 m3= 0.000811 acre-foot. Taking into account these diversions, calculate the average annual flow into Mono Lake from these three creeks in cubic meters per year (re/yr) Select one: a, 1.28 x 108 m 3/yr b. 1.27508 x 108 m3/yr c. 1.55 x 107 m3/yr ?d, 1.2x107 m 3/yr e. 1.56 x 107 m3yr Previous page Next page

Explanation / Answer

ANSWER (b)

we have

AVerage annual flow in mono basin from three creeks = 103408 acre-feet

Now 1 acre foot = 1233.04 m3

So, the required annual flow = 1233.04 x 103408 cubic meters =127506781.8 m3 =1.2750 x 108 m3/yr
