This document discusses flood routing and detention basin design. It covers level-pool routing for reservoirs where outflow is controlled by water depth. It provides an example of reservoir routing by calculating the outflow hydrograph given the inflow hydrograph and stage-storage-outflow relationships. Channel routing procedures are also briefly mentioned.

and Spatial Modeling 1 RSLAB-NTU The storage effect The storage effect of a water-retention structure or a channel reach can change the shape of the inflow hydrograph. Therefore two types of routing procedures are needed to calculate the outflow hydrograph. Level-pool routing Channel routing

and Spatial Modeling 2 RSLAB-NTU Level-Pool Routing (Reservoir Routing) For a reservoir the outflow is uniquely controlled by the water depth (or stage) of the reservoir pool. Also, the reservoir storage is a single-value function of the stage.
Flow velocity in the reservoir is usually very low.

Also, the reservoir storage is a single-value function of the stage. As a result, given a stage the reservoir storage and outflow can be uniquely determined, if the stage~storage and stage~outflow relationships are known. An intuitive trial-and-error approach for reservoir routing can be implemented. Lab for Remote Sensing Hydrology and Spatial Modeling 12 RSLAB-NTU Alternative solution
