The Chiene (also known as Kiene) is an approximately 9 kilometer long right tributary of the Kander in the Swiss canton of Bern . It flows through the Kiental in the Bernese Oberland and drains an area of around 90 square kilometers.
geography
course
The Chiene rises from the Tschingelsee at 1150 m above sea level. M. , which is fed by several streams, but above all by the Gornernbach, which thus forms the upper course of the river. It flows mainly in a north-westerly direction through the valley and is mostly surrounded by a wide forest edge. After a short run, it begins its most important tributary with the Spiggenbach near the village of Kiental . It passes Aris Castle and flows into Kien a little south of Reichenbach in the Kandertal at 711 m above sea level. M. in the Kander. Except for two small straightened sections at the mouth and at the village of Kiental, the course of the Chiene is close to nature.
Catchment area
The catchment area of the Chiene is 90.4 km² and consists of 20.6% wooded area , 34.3% agricultural area , 0.8% settlement area , 5.7% glacier / firn, 0, 9% from water area and 37.7% from unproductive areas.
Area distribution
The mean height of the catchment area is 1891 m above sea level. M. , the minimum height is 711 m above sea level. M. and the maximum height at 3645 m above sea level. M.
Hydrology
At the confluence of the Chiene with the Kander, its modeled mean flow rate (MQ) is 3.87 m³ / s. Their discharge regime type is nivo glaciaire and their discharge variability is 17.
