Long-Term Storage Capacity of Reservoirs

Abstract
A solution of the problem of determining the reservoir storage required on a given stream, to guarantee a given draft, is presented in this paper. For example, if a long-time record of annual total discharges from the stream is available, the storage required to yield the average flow, each year, is obtained by computing the cumulative sums of the departures of the annual totals from the mean annual total discharge. The range from the maximum to the minimum of these cumulative totals is taken as the required stornge.
