<br />ro~~~ <br /> <br />This volume is part of the l2-volume report entitled "Hydrologic <br /> <br /> <br />Engineering Methods for Water Resources Development," which is being <br /> <br /> <br />prepared by the Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC) as a part of the <br /> <br /> <br />u. S. Army Corps of Engineers participation in the International Hydro- <br /> <br /> <br />logical Decade. Volume 4 describes methods and procedures for analyzing <br /> <br /> <br />precipitation, snowmelt, infiltration and the runoff process for the <br /> <br /> <br />purpose of computing flood hydrographs. Emphasis is placed on selected <br /> <br /> <br />practical procedures for analyzing flood hydrographs rather than on the <br /> <br /> <br />underlying theory behind the procedures. Although many of the methods <br /> <br /> <br />and procedures described herein have been used successfully in Corps <br /> <br /> <br />of Engineers studies, the volume should not be construed to represent <br /> <br /> <br />the official policy or criteria of the Corps. <br /> <br /> <br />This volume was prepared primarily from technical material developed <br /> <br />by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers during the past few years. Many <br /> <br />individuals from the REC have contributed to its contents including <br /> <br /> <br />Messrs. Edward Hawkins, Warren Sharp, Dale Burnett, and Ken Brooks. <br /> <br />Helpful comments were received from the HEC reviewers Messrs. Augustine <br /> <br /> <br />J. Fredrich, John Peters, Darryl Davis, Leo R. Beard (HEC Director until <br /> <br /> <br />July 1972) and Bill S. Eichert (present HEC Director). <br /> <br />i <br />
