Abstract/Additional Information

One of the most valuable physical characteristics of dams and their reservoirs are area-capacity curves. The main objective of this paper is to substitute the reservoir capacity equation by a more precise dimensionless capacity equation which has fewer unknown parameters and coefficients.
