River Spey Hydrological and Modelling Study

River Spey Hydrological and Modelling Study
This document contains a hydrological and modelling study of a 15km stretch of the River Spey, conducted by Kaya Consulting for the Spey Catchment Initiative. The study aims to understand river flows, create a model of the river, map flood areas, and suggest ways to restore the floodplain. The study involved getting information from the local community, surveying the land, and reviewing existing data, historical information and climate change data. A key part of the study is creating a computer model of the river to predict flooding and help identify areas for restoration. The report presents five potential restoration options, including floodplain scrapes and reconnection of old river bends, and considers the impact of dredging, sediment management, and dam operations, also includes photographs, maps, graphs and other technical information.
