Description
Daily river flows of the River Lochy (Mucomir Cut) at Gairlochy. Approx grid reference NN183840
Data collected by Capt. M. N. McClean via his organisation River Flow Records.
Record spans the period 1935-10-01 to 1944-09-30 with no gaps.
Units cubic feet per second. Based on a calibration developed from curret meter measurements applied to stage measurements taken once per day.
We acknowledge the sponsorship of Scottish Hydro-Electric and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency in suporting the costs of creating digital time series. The catchment is in many respects natural, but Loch Lochy has the Caledonian Canal running through it, completed in 1822.
Subsequent to McClean's colletion of these records, the flow of the River Lochy via the Mucomir Cut was harnessed by the North of Scotland Hydro-Electric Board by the construction of the Mucomir Power Station, commissioned in 1962.
At the time of writing (2024), the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) operate gauges in the Lochy system at Gairlochy and Camisky.
