Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: The thin layer of soils became saturated by precipitation events at the beginning of the rain period, so water could not continue to infiltrate to become groundwater. Runoff increased, which increased discharge and the peaks on the hydrograph.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: True
