    I need to generate dam breach hydrograph for the moraine dam in HEcras 4.1. What are the inputs that are most governing?

    Usually the breach formation time has the most impact on the peak of the breach outflow hydrograph. However, because there is large uncertainty in all the breach parameters, a sensitivity analysis is a good idea to determine which parameter affects the flooding and travel time the most for your situation. Suggest you look at HEC TD-39 “Using HEC-RAS for Dam Break Studies” for more info.
