Abstract
THE hydrological activities of the private organization known as River Flow Records (director, Capt. W. N. McClean, Parliament Mansions, S.W.I) have been in evidence for some time, and the publications under notice represent the data accumulated over a period of several years in the basin of the River Ness, Inverness-shire. Records of the River Garry, one of the tributaries of the Ness, were instituted so far back as December 1912, and then, after a prolonged interval, were resumed in 1929 on the establishment of a water-level recorder at Invergarry, with fresh measurements of flow. The survey of the River Moriston, another tributary influent, was instituted in 1929, following the rejection of the West Highland Water Power Scheme. In both cases, from July 1929 until March 1931, the records were issued quarterly in tabular form. In the present publication, they, and the complete set of records for the River Ness, are given in graphical form, based on the wider range of flow-gauging made since 1931.
