If 58% of the perceptible water is produced from the air up to an elevation of 6400 m to form rainfall at the ground level, what would be the depth of the rainfall?

(b)

After the passage of a cyclone over the Northern Queensland, the rainfall stations A, B and C within a reserve area in the form of a square recorded X mm, 1.5 X mm and 1.25 X mm respectively. Estimate the mean areal precipitation over the reserve first by the arithmetic mean method and then by Thiessen polygon method. (X=58)
