ESTIMATION OF PROBABLE MAXIMUM PRECIPITATION ON THE PUNJAB CATCHMENT

Abstract

Probable most extreme precipitation is a "Hypothetically, the best profundity of precipitation for a given term that is physically conceivable over a given tempest zone at a specific land area at a specific time" It is utilized to gauges the Probable greatest surge, examination of plan and hazard for high peril hydrological structures, for example, surge dams and Barrage. Fundamentally Probable most extreme precipitation (PMP) is a hypothetical precipitation profundity which is conceivable in existing encompassing catchment conditions and it has low likelihood which is not as much as the greatest precipitation. In this manner Probable most extreme precipitation (PMP) does not take after long haul climatic patterns. Different methods are utilized as a part of Probable most extreme precipitation (PMP) estimations yet the Moisture amplification method gives a superior outcome in examination with Hershfield
method. There is 12.94% normal varieties of results happen utilizing these methods. We are utilized these strategies for ascertaining Probable most extreme precipitation (PMP) for the Punjab catchment and drawn the Probable greatest precipitation (PMP) maps for examination of Probable most extreme precipitation (PMP
