Measurement of the physical characteristics of drainage basins / A. Coulson, P.N. Gross.: En36-515/5E-PDF
"Runoff from a drainage basin is determined to a large extent by the climatic conditions in the area. The total volume of runoff is dependent on the amount of precipitation and the timing of runoff varies with the form of precipitation; In other words, the more rain or snow that occurs; the greater will be the runoff and whereas a rainstorm will cause runoff in the stream channels almost immediately, snow may remain on the ground for several months before it melts and releases water to runoff"--Introd.
