    Elevation profile: reservoir

    Terrain height along the fishing district and the approximate water level.

    Reservoir This is a reservoir, so the watercourse is not assessed here: the water has no current, fall or gradient. The chart shows the terrain height along the fishing district.

    Source: SHMÚ (yearbooks on surface and groundwater quality), the register of wastewater treatment plants from VÚVH and the EEA. A SHMÚ site is assigned to a fishing district by the same watercourse name and by distance; the yearbook lists the sites that failed the standard, so a missing site is not proof of clean water.
