Question

I am EXTREMELY LOST on my assignment and dont even know where to start. Here it is... Problem: The Colorado River Drainage Basin covers parts of seven western states. A series of dams has been constructed on the Colorado River and its tributaries to store runoff water and to generate low-cost hydroelectric power. The ability to regulate the flow of water has made the growth of agriculture and population in these arid desert states possible. Even during periods of extended drought, a steady, reliable source of water and electricity has been available to the basing states. Lake Powell is one of these reservoirs lake_powell.txt contains data on the water level in the reservoir for the eight years 2000 to 2007. a) Use nested for loops to read one water level value at a time into the lake_powell matrix. lake_powell(month,year) = fscanf(fileID, '%f', 1); Print the lake_powell matrix with title and year column headings. b) Use mean to determine the average elevation of the water level for each year and the overall average for the eight-year period over which the data were collected. c) Use find and length to determine how many months of each year exceed the overall average for the eight-year period. d) Create a report that lists the month (number) and the year for each of the months that exceed the overall average. For example, June is month 6. Use find. e) Determine and print the average elevation of the water for each month for the eight-year period. Use mean. f) Plot the water level values in lake_powell using date=2000:1/12:2008-1/12; plot(date,lake_powell(:)) xlabel('Year') ylabel('Water level, ft') Problem Constants: (with units) number of months first and last year file name Problem Inputs: (with units) water levels Problem Outputs: (with units) see instructions Other variables: (with units) as needed Equations: Algorithm: open data file; do not continue if open error for each month for each year read water level value (see the instructions for the rest of the steps) Use variables for loop control, i.e. use number of months constant instead of 12. You may want to create vectors of months and years. COMP1200M
