The direct runoff is the runoff caused by and directly following a rainfall; it forms the major part of the flood hydrograph and excludes base flow. The base flow is that part of the stream discharge that is not attributable to direct runoff from precipitation or melting snow; it is usually sustained by groundwater. The amount of base flow a stream receives is closely linked to the permeability of rock or soil in the watershed. Base flow is important because impervious surfaces created by development will inhibit water from infiltrating into the ground as it did prior to development. Over time this will draw down the groundwater elevation, which in turn affects spring activity, which feeds the river. In short the river's base flow will decrease over time if springs are not replenished by infiltration, which is why base flow is a key indicator to monitor. ............................................................... 53 3.2 First spring .......................................................................................... 54 3.2.1 Catchment descriptors .................................................................................. 54 3.2.1.1 Figure: FEH-Slad spring ................................................................................. 54 3.2.1.2 Table: FEH parameters .................................................................................. 54 3.2.2 Pooling group selection ................................................................................ 55 3.2.2.1 Figure: Location of the Donor Catchments ...................................................... 55 3.2.2.2 Figure: Generalised Logistic Curve .................................................................. 55 ______________________________________________________________________ - 3 - Slad Brook Pilot August/2008 3.2.3 Flood Frequency Curve ................................................................................. 56 3.2.3.1 Table: Peak Flow for the Flood Frequency curve .............................................. 56 3.2.3.2 Figure: Flood Frequency Curve ....................................................................... 56 3.2.4 Flood Growth Curve ...................................................................................... 57 3.2.4.1

  • Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership
    Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership ‘Call for Evidence’ Response to Gloucestershire’s Local Industrial Strategy Page 1 of 54 Gloucestershire Local Nature Partnership Local Nature Partnerships (LNPs) were formed as part of the government’s 2011 white paper “The Natural Choice: Securing the value of nature”1. As part of a framework to strengthen local action to achieve the recovery of nature, LNPs were tasked to raise awareness about the vital services and benefits that a healthy natural environment brings for people, communities and the local economy. LNPs were to contribute to the green economy and complement Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs), of which there is an expectation from government for LNPs and LEPs to form strong links that capture the value of nature. Here in Gloucestershire, the LNP is formed of over 30 organisations from public, private and third sector bodies from across the county, all working together as an informal partnership to recognise the importance of embedding nature's value in local decisions for the benefit of the nature, people and the economy. The GLNP Mission is to champion the essential role of Gloucestershire’s natural environment in sustaining a vibrant, healthy, prosperous economy and society. With a Vision of a healthy and valued natural environment, sustaining the economy and wellbeing of Gloucestershire. Our partnership provides a strong and innovative voice for the environment sector and is seen as a key partner in helping deliver the Gloucestershire County Council’s Strategy 2019-20222. We benefit from a solid working relationship with GFirst LEP, as well as all the District Councils.

  • The Iron Age Tom Moore
    The Iron Age Tom Moore INTRODUCfiON In the twenty years since Alan Saville's (1984) review of the Iron Age in Gloucestershire much has happened in Iron-Age archaeology, both in the region and beyond.1 Saville's paper marked an important point in Iron-Age studies in Gloucestershire and was matched by an increasing level of research both regionally and nationally. The mid 1980s saw a number of discussions of the Iron Age in the county, including those by Cunliffe (1984b) and Darvill (1987), whilst reviews were conducted for Avon (Burrow 1987) and Somerset (Cunliffe 1982). At the same time significant advances and developments in British Iron-Age studies as a whole had a direct impact on how the period was viewed in the region. Richard Hingley's (1984) examination of the Iron-Age landscapes of Oxfordshire suggested a division between more integrated unenclosed communities in the Upper Thames Valley and isolated enclosure communities on the Cotswold uplands, arguing for very different social systems in the two areas. In contrast, Barry Cunliffe' s model ( 1984a; 1991 ), based on his work at Danebury, Hampshire, suggested a hierarchical Iron-Age society centred on hillforts directly influencing how hillforts and social organisation in the Cotswolds have been understood (Darvill1987; Saville 1984). Together these studies have set the agenda for how the 1st millennium BC in the region is regarded and their influence can be felt in more recent syntheses (e.g. Clarke 1993). Since 1984, however, our perception of Iron-Age societies has been radically altered. In particular, the role of hillforts as central places at the top of a hierarchical settlement pattern has been substantially challenged (Hill 1996).
