Title: River Flow Volumes
Post by: Wildfisher on July 03, 2017, 07:00:34 PM
Is there anywhere you can get Scottish river average flow volumes? I know SEPA do river heights, but that's not what I'm after.

That's it, just for comparison purposes.

Mean flows -

The Lunan is 1.713 cubic m /s
The Luther is 2.332 cubic m /s

It's hard to eyeball these things, but I did think the Luther was a much stronger river than the Lunan and indeed it is.
