It is a permanent balance between the water resources that enter a system and the resources that leave in a limited time.
The hydrological balance is used to schedule irrigation and make more efficient use of water

Some of the factors that affect the hydrological balance are:
Vegetation
Climate
Topography

Groundwater recharge = Effective precipitation - Evapotranspiration - Surface runoff - Groundwater withdrawal + Water flow from surface sources

One of the most common methods for estimating evapotranspiration is the Penman-Monteith Equation method, recommended by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and widely used throughout the world, and the equation is The next:
 
 
ET0 = 0.408 * Δ * (Rn - G) + (γ * (900 / (T + 273)) * U2 * (e_s - e_a)) / (T + 273)
 
 
Where:
 
ET0 is the reference evapotranspiration (in millimeters per day).
Δ is the change in vapor pressure in air with temperature (in kPa/°C).
Rn is the net radiation at the surface (in MJ/m²/day).
G is the heat flux in the ground (in MJ/m²/day).
γ (gamma) is the psychrometric constant (approximately 0.066 kPa/°C).
T is the average daily temperature in °C.
U2 is the wind speed at 2 meters above the surface (in m/s).
e_s is the saturated vapor pressure (in kPa) at temperature T.
e_a is the actual vapor pressure of air (in kPa).

In hydrology, there are several formulas and methods for calculating runoff. being this the most used:
 
Runoff Coefficient (CN) Method:
 
The runoff coefficient (RC) method is commonly used in hydrology and is based on the classification of watersheds based on their characteristics, such as land use, vegetation cover, and soil type. The general formula is:
 
 
Runoff = P * CN / 100
 
Where:
Runoff is the volume of runoff water in the basin (usually in millimeters or cubic meters).
P is the effective precipitation, that is, the amount of rain that contributes to runoff (in millimeters).
CN is the runoff coefficient, which varies depending on the basin classification and can range from 30 to 100 or more. Higher CN values ​​indicate higher runoff.
 
The value of the runoff coefficient (CN) is determined using tables or formulas that consider vegetation cover, soil type, infiltration and other factors of the basin.
