ABSTRACT
Runoff is that portion of the precipitation
or rainfall that finds its way towards the stream channels rivers, lashes or
oceans as surface or subsurface flow. It is also the total lwei of water obtained
after water infiltration, interception, surface storage arid other losses have
been subtracted or deducted from the total dept. of precipitation (Potter,
1961). Tent. epitomic b vegetated canopy maybe so great as to prevent a light
rain stone from watering the soil. Interception by dense covers of forest or
shrubs cursorily alimony. o 25 peronei of arousal precipitations, interception
also has a detection storage ef1':et, delaying the prognoses of precipitation
that reaches the front the leaves. Runoff will occur only when the rate f
precipitator raced the rate at which water infiltrates into the soil. After
the infiltration i.e satisfied, water begins to fill the depressions, ; d and
large on the soil surface, as the depressions are filled, overland flows beg. risk.
The depth of tier bu1ds up on the surface. Until it is sufficient to result in
r.in ff, in equhbriuni wit the of precipitation less infiltration and
interception (Couple, e ai., 1 94.4).
