hydrographs show how a river responds differently to storms and heavy rainfall.
the graphs show the discharge of the river, the storm a certain amount of time.
Discharge is the amount of water ina river passing a given time. it measures in CUMECS (cubic meters per second)
Dischare depends on the river speed

What affects the shape of a storm hydrograph?
The shape of a storm hydrograph is influenced by factors such as precipitation intensity, duration, and distribution, as well as the characteristics of the watershed such as size, slope, soil type, land use, and vegetation cover. These factors determine how quickly water enters the river system and how quickly it moves through it, ultimately shaping the hydrograph.
What is Rainfall Peak?
