The curvilinear recessions relating to storage losses with runoff water collected at storage structure, G R Halli watershed, Chitradurga district, Karnataka fitted best with the observations. The method of estimation of the model parameter is presented in the paper. Relating storage to storage on preceding day gives more information about water balance of this catchment. It is observed from the data that more emphasis is to be given for in situ conservation measures.
