September low flows


The first 9 days of September were very dry (just 3 mm of rainfall on the 5th), and we can see the water level falling to only about 32 cm. This might be the lowest water level for the water year, also known as the minimum annual flow. Today we measured the discharge to be 0.45 m3/s at a stage of 34.5 cm. With a basin area of 19.45 km2, the specific discharge becomes 0.0231 m3/s/km2.
