| The Modified Rational Hydrograph also assumes that the time to peak is equal to the t<sub>c</sub>, but allows for the duration of the storm to be longer than t<sub>c</sub>, resulting in a trapezoidal shaped hydrograph as shown below. A coefficient to modify the slope of the receding limb may also be applied with this method.

| * r = falling limb coefficient
