  1. Given discharge is 450 m3/s, river width is 50 m at a depth of 6 m and bed slope of 0.0003, the sediment has a typical diameter of 0.01 m. Estimate the bedload transport using Shield and Einstein-Brown formula.

2. Annual precipitation measurements (Pi in cm) for M City, were given in Problem 1. Determine the magnitude of the 10-year precipitation depth if the data fit:

  1. the normal distribution.
  2. the Gumbel distribution.

How many times was the P10 (normal) exceeded in the 20-year annual precipitation record given in Problem 1?
