Maximum flood discharge can be calculated by using which of the following graphs? 

Maximum flood discharge can be calculated by using which of the following graphs?  Correct Answer Hydrograph 

At a particular point of a stream, Hydrograph shows the variation of discharge with time. At a point of measurement, hydrograph shows time distribution of total runoff. Maximum flood discharge is also calculated by using Hydrograph.

Statement I): When a loop rating curve is prepared at a gauging station when a flood wave passes, the maximum discharge occurs earlier than the maximum stage. Statement II): When a flood wave passes through a reach, during rising stages, some water may get into depressions on the floodplains of the river and, may be, only part of this spill returns to the channel runoff when flood levels recede.
