Evaporation can be measured using lysimeters, which are devices that measure actual evapotranspiration from plants and soils. There are two main types of lysimeters - non-weighable lysimeters that measure percolation, and weighable lysimeters that directly measure weight changes. Weighable lysimeters can use mechanical scales, load cells, or hydraulic principles to continuously record the weight of the soil and calculate evapotranspiration from changes in water content over time. Lysimeters provide useful data for measuring actual evaporation and water budgets in agricultural and natural areas.

Runoff is that portion of the rainfall or irrigation water which leaves a field either as surface or as subsurface flow. When rainfall intensity reaching the soil surface is less than the infiltration capacity, all the water is absorbed in to the soil. As rain continues, soil becomes saturated and infiltration capacity is reduced, shallow depression begins to fill with water, then the overland flow starts as runoff.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

2. Evaporation Process
Evaporation includes all processes by which water returns to the
atmosphere as water vapour: evaporation of intercepted rain and snow;
evaporation from bare soil and water bodies, such as ponds, lakes, and
streams; and transpiration from plant leaves.
Evaporation (and Transpiration) are small for a runoff event and can be
neglected.The bulk of these abstractions take place during the time
between runoff events, which is usually long.Hence, these are more
important during this time interval.
3. Evaporation requires the following four conditions
Available water
Higher humidity at the evaporative surface (i.e., vapour pressure) than
in the surrounding air
Energy to evaporate the water and
Movement, or transfer, of water vapour away from the evaporative
surface.
4. Energy required to evaporate water depends on incoming solar
radiation, reflectivity of the evaporative surface, and air and surface
temperature.
Increasing solar radiation, air temperature, and wind speed and
decreasing atmospheric humidity all create an increase in evaporation
rate.
Evaporation is enhanced by warm air flowing over a cooler surface
(e.g., air moving from dry rangeland over an irrigated crop or a small
lake), but decreases rapidly with distance from the boundary between
dry and wet surfaces.
Intercepted rain or snow, and open water are in direct contact with the
air. Both boundary-layer and aerodynamic resistance affect water loss
from these surfaces
5. Factors Affecting Evaporation
Wind: When wind speed is high it assists evaporation.
Heat:Evaporation is more in summer as compared to winter.
Exposed surface area:For instance, a wet cloth spread out dries faster
than when folded.
Humidity: Dryness assists evaporation; for instance, clothes dry faster
in summer than during the monsoon when the air is humid.
6. Nature of the liquid: Rate of evaporation depends upon the
type of liquid; for example, petrol evaporates faster than
water.
6.Vapour pressure: If pressure is applied on the surface of a
liquid, evaporation is hindered; consider, for example, the case
of a pressure cooker.
7.
8. Pan Evaporation
Pan evaporation is a measurement that combines or integrates the
effects of several climate elements: temperature, humidity, rain fall,
drought dispersion, solar radiation, and wind.
Evaporation is greatest on hot, windy, dry, sunny days; and is greatly
reduced when clouds block the sun and when air is cool, calm, and
humid.Pan evaporation measurements enable farmers and ranchers to
understand how much water their crops will need.

10. Fixed Pointer
the base, a 100 mm PVC flange
The pointer support, a 230 mm long piece of 100 mm PVC pipe. Four
equally spaced 9 mm holes 70 mm from the base are drilled to allow
the water height around the fixed pointer to quickly adjust to the
water height in the pan. A single 15 mm long 5 mm wide elongated
hole is also drilled 70 mm from the base of the PVC pipe.
The fixed pointer that sits inside the pan can be made from standard
irrigation fittings and a piece of stainless steel rod
11. Measuring Cylinder
To measure evaporation the pan must be refilled with a known volume of
water. The surface area of the pan is 1.14 square metres, so for every mm
of evaporation 1.14 litres of water must be added to the pan.
A transparent plastic 2 litre measuring jug with vertical sides is an
excellent measuring cylinder if it is scaled properly.
It is important that the jug actually holds more water than 2 litres so the
sides of the jug must extend past the 2 litre mark. The jug is filled with
2.28 litres of water and the water level marked.
12. Determination of Evaporation from Water Surfaces
Evaporation from water surfaces can be determined
Water budget
Energy budget
Mass transfer methods
Combination methods
Evaporation formulas
13. Water Budget
The water-budget equation for estimating evaporation (Horton, 1943)
can be written as
Where,
E =Evaporation
I = Inflow
P = Precipitation
O = Outflow
Os = Seepage and
ΔS = Change in storage
14. Runoff
Runoff is the part of the rainfall over a catchment area that eventually
leaves the catchment as a surface stream flow, whatever is the flow
pathway that the water has followed on its way to the stream channel.
Thus this definition includes both surface and subsurface runoff
pathways.
15. Runoff Processes in Rural Areas
In arid and semi-arid regions with scarce vegetation and those
disturbed by humans (urbanization, etc.), infiltration capacity is a
limiting factor and Hortonian overland flow is the dominant process.
This also happens when the top soil is frozen. In most humid regions,
subsurface flow and saturation overland flow are dominant processes.
Where the soils are well-drained, deep and very permeable, the water
table is deep and the saturated zone is confined to the valley floor.
16. Runoff Processes in Urban Areas
Modification of the land surface during urbanization changes the type
and magnitude of runoff processes.
Covering parts of the catchment with impervious roofs and concrete
lots increases the volume and rate of Horton overland flow. Planners
have to design detention ponds to accommodate increased runoff.
Gutters and storm sewers convey runoff rapidly to stream channels.
The channels are straightened and lined with concrete to increase the
efficiency, so that they transmit the flood wave downstream more
quickly.
17. Runoff Cycle
It is that part of hydrological cycle which falls between the phase of
precipitation and its subsequent discharge in the stream channels or
direct return to the atmosphere through evaporation and
evapotranspiration.
18.
19. Types of Runoff
Based on the time lag between rainfall and runoff, it may be classified
in to the following three types:
Surface runoff.
Sub - surface runoff, and
Base flow
20. Surface Runoff
It is the portion of rainfall which enters the stream immediately after
the rainfall when the localized depressions are filled up and the top soil
layer is saturated.
The short journey of this water flowing over the land as a sheet of
water is also called overland flow.
This overland flow soon finds paths of lesser resistance such as rills,
streams, tributaries, rivers, etc., which all combined is termed as
surface runoff.
21.
22. Sub-surface Runoff
The portion of rainfall, which first infiltrates into the soil and moves
laterally without joining the water-table to the streams, rivers or oceans
is known as sub- surface runoff. The sub-surface runoff is usually
referred to as interflow.
23. Base flow
It is the delayed flow, defined as that part of rainfall which after
falling on the ground surface infiltrates into the soil and meets the
water table and flow towards the streams, rivers, oceans etc.
The movement of water in this type of runoff is very slow; that is why
it is also referred to as delayed runoff. It takes a long time to join the
rivers or oceans.
Sometimes base flow is also known as ground water flow. Base flow
is not directly contributed by rainfall and continues much after the
rainfall has ceased
24. Total Runoff = Surface runoff + Base flow (Including sub -
surface runoff)
25. Factors Affecting Runoff
Runoff rate and volume from an area are mainly influenced by
following four factors:
Climatic factors.
Physiographical Factors.
Metrological factors
Storage Characteristics
26. Climate Factors
1. Types of Precipitation
2. Rainfall Intensity
3. Duration of Rainfall
4. Rainfall Distribution
5. Direction of Prevailing Wind
6. Other Climate Factor
28. Storage Characteristics
Depressions
Ponds, lakes and pools.
Stream
Channels.
Check dams in gullies
Upstream reservoirs or tanks.
Ground water storage in deposits/aquifers
29. Physiographic Factors
1. Size of Watershed
2. Shape of Watershed
3. Slope of Watershe
4. Orientation of Watershed
5. Land Use
6. Soil moisture
7. Soil type
8. Topographic characteristics
9. Drainage Density:
30. Rational Method
Consider a rainfall of uniform intensity and very long duration
occurring over a basin. The runoff rate gradually increases from zero to
a constant value as indicated
31. The runoff increases as more and more flow from remote areas of the
catchment reach the outlet. Designating the time taken for a drop of
water from the farthest part of the catchment to reach the outlet as tc=
time of concentration, it is obvious that if the rainfall continues beyond
tc, the runoff will be constant and at the peak value. The peak value of
the runoff is given by
(1
32. Cook’s Method
Cook used a different approach to estimate the runoff from small
agricultural areas. In this method, the runoff characteristics of a
watershed are examined under four categories:
Relief
Infiltration
Vegetative cover
Surface storage
33. Based on observations of peak floods from agricultural areas, numerical
values have been assigned to the various conditions of above categories
by various investigators.
Steps
1.The sum,Σ W, of the numerical values assigned to the watershed
characteristics is obtained.
2.Runoff curves (relating runoff with drainage area for Σ W values) are
then entered with the drainage area and Σ W and the value of peak
runoff for a 10 year recurrence interval is obtained.
3.This peak runoff value is then modified for recurrence interval and
geomorphic characteristics by the formula:
34. Q = P . R . F
Where
Q is peak runoff for a specified
RI and geomorphic location
P is peak runoff obtained in
R is geomorphic rainfall factor (based on longitude and latitude)
F is recurrence interval factor.
35. SCS curve number method
This method is developed by the Soil Conservation Service (SCS)
in 1969. It is now known as Natural Resources Conservation
Service (NRCS).
The fundamental hypotheses of the SCS-CN method are as follows:
a) Runoff starts after an initial abstraction Iahas been satisfied. This
abstraction consists principally of interception, surface storage, and
infiltration.
36. b) The ratio of actual retention of rainfall to the potential maximum
retention S is equal to the ratio of direct runoff to rainfall minus initial
abstraction.
Where is the runoff volume uniformly distributed over the drainage
basin, P is the mean precipitation over the drainage basin, and S is the
retention of water by the drainage basin. The quantity Iacan be expressed
as a function of S. For Indian Conditions,Ia = 0.3S. Physically, this means
that for a given storm, 20% of the potential maximum retention is the
initial abstraction before runoff begins. Presumably, 0.8S represents other
retention losses, including interception, infiltration, evapotranspiration,
and depression storage. Therefore
37. Evidently this is a one-parameter model containing S as the parameter and
is illustrated graphically
38. Measurement of Evaporation
Lysimeter
A lysimeter is a measuring device which can be used to measure the amount of
actual evapotranspiration which is released by plants, usually crops or trees.
By recording the amount of precipitation that an area receives and the amount
lost through the soil, the amount of water lost to evapotranspiration can be
calculated.
In general, a lysimeter consists of the soil-filled inner container and retaining
walls or an outer container, as well as special devices for measuring percolation
and changes in the soil-moisture content.
The surface area of lysimeters in use varies from 0.05 to some 100 m2 and their
depth varies from 0.1 to 5 m.
39. Lysimeters are of two types
Non-weighable (percolation-type) lysimeters can be used only for long-
term measurements, unless the soil-moisture content can be measured by
some independent and reliable technique.
Large-area percolation-type lysimeters are used for water budget and
evapotranspiration studies of tall, deep rooting vegetation cover, such as
mature trees.
Small, simple types of lysimeters in areas with bare soil or grass and crop
cover could provide useful results for practical purposes under humid
conditions.
This type of lysimeter can easily be installed and maintained at a low cost
and is, therefore, suitable for network operations.
Lysimeters are of two types
40. Several weighing techniques using mechanical or hydraulic principles
have been developed. The simpler, small lysimeters are usually lifted
out of their sockets and transferred to mechanical scales by means of
mobile cranes.
The container of a lysimeter can be mounted on a permanently
installed mechanical scale for continuous recording.
The design of the weighing and recording system can be considerably
simplified by using load cells with strain gauges of variable electrical
resistance.
The hydraulic weighing systems use theprinciple of fluid displacement
resulting from the changing buoyancy of a floating container (socalled
floating lysimeter), or the principle of fluid pressure changes in
hydraulic load cells.
