Example figures: Duration of high water

Explanations

Period of time during which the water level lies above a given threshold.

• left top: result for threshold -1.875 m.
• right top: result for threshold -0.875 m.
• left bottom: result threshold 0.125 m.
• right bottom: result for threshold 1.125 m.

Examples

water levels above -1.875 m	water levels above -0.875 m

water levels above 0.125 m	water levels above 1.125 m

Closely related quantities

• frequency for the exceedance of water level threshold values
• duration of low water
