Catchment area
The 2.6 km² catchment area of the outcrop is located in the natural area of Moschelhöhen . of the North Palatinate Bergland and is therefore also part of the Saar-Nahe Bergland . The highest elevation of the catchment area is the Steinkopf between the Hobstätterhof in the west and the Ingweilerhof in the east with a height of 403.3 m . Other notable hills are the north of the Berghof located 365.3 meters high Rödelberg and the south of Karlshof hill lying plate ( 361 m ) and an unnamed 369 m high hill north of Rödel mountain.
The area of the outcrop borders in the southwest on the catchment area of the Sulzbach , which flows into the Glan, and in the southeast the Odenbach tributaries Hirzbach and Zangengraben compete .
The southwestern area of its catchment area is characterized by sandy - loamy fields and grassland and forests dominate in the northeast. In the headwaters lies the Ausbacherhof, west-northwest of it the Hobstätterhof belonging to Einöllen and the village of Reipoltskirchen in the area of the mouth.
Data
The Ausbach drains over the Odenbach , Glan , Nahe and Rhine into the North Sea . The difference in altitude from its source to its mouth is 140 m, which corresponds to a mean bed gradient of 46.2 ‰ over a run length of 3.0327 km. Its catchment area, with a size of 2.636 km², contributes about 3.1% to the catchment area of the Odenbach (85.956 km²).
geology
The catchment area of the outbreak lies in the Rotliegend of the Permocarbons in the Lower Glan subgroup . The sediment layer consists of alternating layers of gray, sometimes red, claystone , siltstone and sandstone . Tuff , limestone and coal deposits also occur occasionally .
nature and environment
In the Buchenwald east-southeast of Karlshof are sessile oak , ash and beech trees and in the herbaceous layer there can Stachys sylvatica , the Small-flowered impatiens , the woodruff , the Great witchweeds that Carex sylvatica , the Brachypodium sylvaticum and Arum maculatum develop.
In the area of the middle reaches, on the banks of the brook, there are broken willows , ash, black alder and sycamore maples as well as blackberry , gooseberry , red currant , double-headed hawthorn and hazelnut bushes . Down at the bottom thrives stinging nettle , which Stachys sylvatica , the wood sorrel , the mountain yellow archangel , the Himalayan balsam , which Gundermann , the Stinkstorchschnabel , the Meadowsweet , the Great witchweeds that Carex sylvatica, the Winkelsegge , the cuckoo flower , the forest smock , the marsh marigold and the Waldzwenke.
