Hydrometrie

The flow rate of the flow system is detected at a number of points. The data presented in the graph were taken at the site in Mandera, about 50 km above the mouth of the Wami. The observed mean annual flow rate there was 60.6 m³ / s (1954 - 1984). fed by about 82 % of the catchment area of ​​the river. The Wami flows stimulate time-dependent, as most of the rivers in the region.
