Catchment Character

🌊 Mixed response A balance of quick runoff and slower groundwater baseflow.

Your catchment is all the land that drains rainfall into the river above this gauge. Its character — how steep, wet, wooded, urban or chalky that land is — decides how fast rain here turns into a rising river. A steep, bare or clay catchment is “flashy” (rises and falls quickly, floods easily); a flat, chalk or well-wooded one is slow and steady. The tiles below put numbers to that; the flow-duration curve reads left-to-right from the river’s typical high flows (Q5) down to its low flows (Q95) — a steep curve means a flashy river.

About this gauge

Velocity area station with cableway with high flows out of bank but not bypassed draining a natural catchment.

More detail

The catchment

Headwaters of moderate relief, draining durable Silurian slates and shales; otherwise, catchment underlain by ORS marls. Generally low permeability. Predominantly grassland, with sheep grazing on upland plateau and some patches of arable and forest in lower catchment. Station is in a transition zone between upland plateau supporting sheep grazing and the more productive lowlands.

The station

Velocity area station. Low flow control is a stable riffle; otherwise a three-bay road bridge 50m d/s is the control. Approx bankfull width is 13.25m. Bankfull on RHB is 2.5m, LHB is 2.0m. Cableway span is 21m.

How it measures flow

Cableway rated site that gets out of bank, LHB floodplain restricted to storage only, not bypassed. Intake pipes silted up during summer of 1994, treat data with caution. Four ratings applied across period of record, the most recent is valid from June 2019. Gaugings fit well to respective ratings.

Flow regime

Natural catchment to within 10% at Q95.

The flow record

Anomalous step changes (e.g. Sept 1975, Sept 1991, March - May 1992). Summer 1974 (July - Sept) low flows should be treated with caution; minima overestimated due to stilling well problem. Data estimated for July - Sept 1990 and June - July 1995. Intake pipes silted up during summer of 1994, treat data with caution. WY1977/1978 rejected as likely occured during period of missing data. Full period of record peak flow data reviewed and released in September 2022 (WINFAP Files v11).
