Time series data of flow of River Erewash (2006-2013)

Flow rates of the river Erewash were quantified monthly from May 2006 until August 2013. The mean monthly discharge of the river was calculated from measurements taken at 30-minute intervals using an Ultraflux UF322 CO ultrasonic flowmeter situated a short distance upstream from where the river enters the gravel pit Coneries Pond (52.897, -1.245) at the Attenborough Nature Reserve. The data were collected to study the influence of river discharge and rainfall on the ecology and biogeochemistry of lakes connected to the river Erewash.
