How to read the Regensburg gauge
A gauge reading is a height at this one point, not a depth of water under a ship. Every reference mark below belongs to Regensburg alone, so a number here cannot be compared with a number from another gauge.
- GlW, the low-water navigation reference: not available. The level the maintained fairway depth on this stretch is quoted against.
- MNW, mean low water: 194 cm.
- MW, mean water: 244 cm.
- MHW, mean high water: 479 cm.
- Record low (NNW): 184 cm , set on 30 Aug 2015.
Where a mark reads “not available”, the operator does not publish it for this gauge and we do not estimate it.
