Details

The broad aims of the project were to (a) build up an understanding of the relationships between quality and flow for the three GQA determinands, and (b) clarify how any relationships discerned are influenced by the nature of the river. The project also aimed to assess the effect on quality of factors other than flow, such as AMP-related improvements.
