ABSTRACT
Reservoir systems are public utility system, which use water as a renewable
natural resource. Scarcity, uncertainty, and some times the availability of water more
than the storage capacity of the reservoir make it an important resource that needs to
industrial productivity and many other, giving rise to a severe competition for the
monsoon months with uncertain space and time distribution resulting in either severe
resources planners and decision makers. The prevailing situation calls for a scientific
Water resources planning and management are quite complex with multi

minimizing the devastating flood situation in the down stream areas by regulating
manner throughout the period but is concentrated during a specified time interval in
the period during which the inflow is more than the storage capacity of the system.
The system surroundings also receive an uncertain and insufficient supply of the

Chapter-ll deals with the search for solution where a brief review of
chapter is to study in detail, the recorded inflow, and to outline the exact use
that can be made of these records in developing a solution procedure for the
problem under study. A detailed data analysis is made for the available set
of data for the period 1958-2002. Various statistical measures are computed
for the inflow series. A multiple regression analysis is done and relationship
between evaporation losses and reservoir levels for different months are
of every eleventh year given the inflow series of the previous ten years.
