		The Plynlimon complex is one of the most important areas for nature conservation in Wales, being of special interest for its vegetation types and bird fauna.
		Plynlimon is part of the most southern block in Montgomeryshire (some 10km in size) of the Cambrian Mountains Range, which many of you will know spans almost three quarters the length of Wales.
		Plynlimon was first designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) in 1979, principally for its diverse vegetation types and breeding, feeding and wintering bird fauna.

		Long term studies of fluvial sediment processes in the Plynlimon catchments have contributed to the assessment and quantification of plantation forestry impacts in British upland catchments, at all stages of the forest cycle.
		The results from the Plynlimon studies are placed in the context of the observed impacts of particular forest practices and studies of forestry effects on sediment transport elsewhere in the world.
		Finally, recent data on sediment yields from 1995 to 1997 at Plynlimon are reported and discussed in the light of longer-term sediment yield estimates.

		Given the resources and longevity of the Plynlimon study, the investigators were able to experiment with differing approaches to measuring hydrological balances in two neighbouring catchments.
		At Plynlimon, gross rainfall was measured from gauges mounted at canopy level and in nearby clearings; the clearing gauge being a tipping bucket device with an orifice at ground level.

		Plynlimon is the highest mountain in Mid Wales (2468' / 752m) and from its summit can be seen the peaks of Snowdonia and the Brecon Beacons, as well as the whole sweep of Cardigan Bay.
		There are no waymarked routes up Plynlimon, and a map, compass, and navigational skills are essential, as well as suitable clothing and footwear.
		The best routes up are from the end of the minor road by Nant-y-moch reservoir (grid reference 775880) and from the Dyffryn Castell hotel on the A44 (GR 775817).

		Plynlimon in mist played its usual cruel tricks on some participants who experienced difficulties in locating checkpoint 4 at Nant-y-Moch but the majority of walkers, by now soaked to the skin, continued on to checkpoint 5 at Elerch and then on to the finish at Clarach, the last brave souls arriving at 10:30 p.m.

		It is this spatial perspective that can allow us to visualise synoptically the phenomena being studied, while at the same time exploring, highlighting, and verifying the prominent spatial variables that control the rainfall-runoff transformation processes.
		This was chosen because Plynlimon represents one of the most complete and thorough examples of experimental upland catchments in the UK.
		In particular the water storage behaviour attributed to the upland peats was not predicted by the model.

		In a nonblind attempt to see whether closer signatures could produce a fit equivalent to Japan's, a solution was begun with Plynlimon, the best-fitting of the European signatures.
		(The very high samples just left of Plynlimon is not in contention because its coefficient is negative.) That improves the overall fit to a decent 0.73, nearly as good as the 0.65 for the Japanese signatures.
		The moral here is that the most obvious sources may not be the only ones to give a good fit, and may not represent the correct solution.

	HESS, Vol.4, No. 2, 2000
		Variations in sodium and chloride in atmospheric inputs (rainfall and mist), stream runoff and groundwater stores are documented for the upper Severn River (Afon Hafren and Afon Hore catchments), Plynlimon, mid-Wales.
		Sodium and chloride concentrations are highly variable and highly correlated in rainfall and mist.
		These findings are remarkable given the heterogeneous nature of the catchments and the complexity of the chemical time series signals in the streams.
