A reservoir is to be constructed with the following characteristics: Mean Annual Runoff, MAR =50mm Catchment Area = 286km2 Coefficient of Variation CV= 110% Full Supply Capacity FSC = 8x 106m3 What is the probability that the reservoir will fill to full capacity from empty in one year assuming that the runoff data follows the Weibull distribution function? P(X-x) = 1-e^(aX/x)b

Question
A reservoir is to be constructed with the following characteristics:
Mean Annual Runoff, MAR =50mm
Catchment Area = 286km2
Coefficient of Variation CV= 110%
Full Supply Capacity FSC = 8x 106m3
What is the probability that the reservoir will fill to full capacity from empty in one year assuming that the runoff data follows the Weibull distribution function?
P(X-x) = 1-e^(aX/x)b
