Abstract

40 major rainstorms of various durations ranging from 1-day to 4-day which occurred over Tapi basin during the period 1891-1968 have been studied by Isohyetal Method, Depth-Duration Curves have been drawn for obtaining the envelope curve. The synoptic situations associated with these major rainstorms have also been discussed.

                          The heaviest rainstorm has been maximised for moisture charge for obtaining "Design Storm. The design storm has also been evaluated by the statistical method for the sake of comparison. Other climatological data like rainfall, temperature and relative humidity in respect of selected stations in the basin have also been included.
