Step 1: Identify the baseflow.
The baseflow is the constant discharge observed at the beginning and end of the hydrograph, representing the groundwater contribution to the streamflow.
From the given table:

  • At Time = 0 hrs, Discharge = 0.1 CFS
  • At Time = 3 hrs, Discharge = 0.1 CFS

The baseflow is the lowest sustained flow.
The baseflow is 0.1 CFS\boxed{\text{0.1 CFS}}.

Step 2: Calculate the peak flow (QpQ_p) using the given formula.
The formula provided is:
