Hydrology

At the confluence of the Vologne in the Moselle , the mean flow rate (MQ) is 9.65 m³ / s; the catchment area here covers 369 km². At the Cheniménil gauge, the average annual runoff of the Vologne was calculated over a period of 41 years (1969–2009) . The catchment area at this point corresponds to about 355 km² with about 96.2% of the complete catchment area of the river.

The highest water levels are measured in the winter months from December to April. The flow rate reached its peak in December at 14.6 m³ / s. From May onwards, the discharge falls noticeably month after month and reaches its lowest level in August with 3.93 m³ / s, after which it increases again from month to month.
