Tacitly maximized small watershed flood estimates
Simple graphical method is presented for predicting maximum flood peak on ungaged rural watersheds ranging in size from 1/5 to 5 sq mi; procedure involves use of two charts, use of infiltration tables for soils and their vegetal covers, and knowledge of length of longest collector, height-drop across watershed, and 30-min rainfall extreme; design values involve latent maximization of peaks from longer or shorter rainfall durations; results obtained from applying this method are compared to 83 floods observed on 29 watersheds in 11 locations of continental United States.
