HEC-HMS QUEST... STORAGE COEFFICIENT

HEC-HMS QUEST... STORAGE COEFFICIENT

HEC-HMS QUEST... STORAGE COEFFICIENT

(OP)
How do you determine the Storage Coefficient in the Clark U.H.?

RE: HEC-HMS QUEST... STORAGE COEFFICIENT

My experience with Clark is using it for gaged watersheds.  It seems less common for your typical ungaged watershed study.

Blueoak,
         I am reviewing a set of plans submitted by consultants. The hourly rainfall data for different frequencies was obtained from Technical Paper No. 40. The only value I cannot seem to figure out is the storage coefficient.....How they got it......

AshEngPE,
I would let them tell you.  If you are a little concerned though I would check it against either a regression or a really simple hydrology model.  I am surprised that they wouldn't give you this information though.  I am amazed when I seenot included.
