THE LATER YOU BRAKE, THE FASTER YOU'LL GO. INTELLIGENT MAGNETIC BRAKING There's braking, then there's breakingPROUD T Othe SUPPO Rmould.T THE As the name suggests, the 7HT MAG incorporates automatic magnetic 2010 braking to provide a superior degree of control to your casting. We call this the ‘Magnofuge’ magnetic braking system and unlike other mag reels on the market we have integrated 'intelligence' into its EUROPEAN design. It remains inactive until the split second your spool hits the revs. SHORE FISHING (All 30,000rpm of them in tests.) CHAMPIONSHIPS This is achieved by allowing the spool to freely reach its almost instant maximum speed before centrifugal force activates the extending and receding magnetic conductor. You get your distance, with control, but proportionate to the spool speed the system automatically reduces the magnetic drag thus allowing the spool to remain spinning for longer. No other reel can do this. Result - greater distance and better control. The Daiwa Millionaire 7HT The world’s biggest specialist.

  • Mechanisms of Flooding in the Mawddach Catchment
    Water in Celtic Countries: Quantity, Quality and Climate Variability (Proceedings of the Fourth InterCeltic 201 Colloquium on Hydrology and Management of Water Resources, Guimarães, Portugal, July 2005). IAHS Publ. 310, 2007. Mechanisms of flooding in the Mawddach catchment GRAHAM HALL & ROGER CRATCHLEY Centre for Arid Zone Studies and School of Agricultural and Forest Sciences, University of Wales, Bangor, UK [email protected] Abstract Rainfall distribution across the Mawddach catchment recorded at 22 raingauges does not correlate well with ground elevation, instead suggesting that maximum precipitation is generated at valley heads where maximum uplift occurs. Streams within the Mawddach catchment have their sources in upland blanket bogs. Water table monitoring shows the water storage capacity of older humified peat to be very limited, with saturation possible during a single storm event—throughflow is concentrated in zones of younger Sphagnum peat. Large thicknesses of glacial and periglacial deposits infill river gorges in the catchment. Hillslope throughflow monitoring indicates that saturation of these deposits can create conditions for rapid runoff and flooding downstream. Temperature monitoring of river bed sediments has identified resurgence of groundwater after prolonged rainfall, further increasing river discharge. Computer modelling predicts that flood plain forestry within the catchment can provide significant temporary storage for peak discharge, reducing flood levels downstream. Key words blanket bog; flooding; flood plain forestry; groundwater; North Wales; rainfall distribution BACKGROUND TO THE PROJECT The Mawddach River system drains a mountainous area of northwest Wales, reaching Cardigan Bay through the Mawddach estuary. The town of Dolgellau at the head of the estuary has experienced regular flood events through historical times (Barton, 2002).

  • A Case Study from the Lleyn Peninsula, Wales
    51 4. Historical reconstruction from micromorphology: a case study from the Lleyn Peninsula, Wales 4.1 Introduction Understanding the causes of microstructures (Chapters Two, Three) and recognising their spatial relationships allows us to reconstruct the environmental history of deposits. In this chapter the environmental history of a deposit at Criccieth, North Wales (Figure 4.1), is reconstructed in more detail than is possible using macroscale features. Such studies are all too rare, partly because of our ignorance as to the causes of microstructures, and partly because of a lack of confidence in microstructural homogeneity on a larger scale. Both views can be attributed to the youth of microstructural research. Such interpretations are, in fact, reasonable - if care is taken over their application. While it is essential that further studies are made of heterogeneity within small areas of outcropping glaciogenic sediments, it should be remembered that the same scale differences are encountered in other branches of geology. The Quaternary deposits of the Lleyn peninsula, in North Wales, have been the source of much controversy. Past discussions centred on the number of terrestrial glaciations in the area (Saunders, 1968 vs. Boulton, 1977). However, present interest in the peninsula stems from an older debate; that between the supporters of terrestrial glaciations and glaciomarine floods. Eyles and McCabe (1989) have split workers by suggesting that the Irish Sea deposits are glaciomarine (Figure 4.1). This origin would add weight to the theory that the last major deglaciation (d180 Stage 2®1) was so rapid because the edge of the major ice sheets were floated from their beds (Broecker and Denton, 1990).
