A plot of rainfall intensity versus time is called?
Answer: C
A plot of rainfall intensity against time is a hyetograph.
A hyetograph is usually drawn as a bar chart of rainfall intensity (or depth) in successive time intervals during a storm. It shows how the storm developed and is the input from which runoff hydrographs are computed.
A hydrograph plots river discharge against time, the output of the catchment rather than the rain. Isohyets are lines of equal rainfall drawn on a map, showing distribution in space, not time. A mass curve plots cumulative rainfall against time; 'Man curve' as printed is not a standard term.
