Hydrology
At the confluence of the Mossig in the Bruche , the mean flow rate (MQ) is 0.58 m³ / s; the catchment area here covers 169.9 km².
At the Soultz-les-Bains gauge, the average annual runoff of the Mossig was calculated over a period of 41 years (1970–2010) . The catchment area at this point corresponds to 163 km², about 96% of the entire catchment area of the river.
The flow rate fluctuates quite strongly over the course of the year. The highest water levels are measured between January and March. The flow rate reached its peak in February at 2.13 m³ / s. From April onwards the discharge decreases and reaches its lowest level in September with 0.66 m³ / s, after which it increases again from month to month.
measured at the Soultz-les-Bains hydrological station.
