		The rivers have therefore remained clean enough to support thriving populations of brown trout and salmon, yet have the habitat characteristics in their lowland reaches to also sustain a healthy population of coarse fish.
		Piddle gauges Details of the structures on the Piddle and their hydraulic performance are shown in Table 2.4.
		A station is proposed for the Frome near the upper limit of ‘main river’ in the region of Maiden Newton, to measure flows from the Hooke, the upper Frome and the Wraxall Brook to assess fluxes of waterborne materials from the upland to the lowland portion of the catchment.

	DWT Rivers & Wetlands
		Rivers left to their own devices force their way through the countryside creating oxbow lakes, reedbeds, backwaters, washlands and supporting fen and bogs.
		There continues to be a lot of demand on rivers to control floods, to discharge into, to maintain drained land and to abstract water for domestic, industrial and agricultural use.
		The River Frome supports one of the largest populations of Water Voles in the Country and the Upper stretches of the river support rare Fen plant and invertebrate communities.

	Low flow rivers - summary
		Despite the dry weather, very good river flows, well in excess of the agreed targets, were maintained throughout the year by a combination of reduced abstraction for public water supply and increased stream support.
		River flows in the main River Wylye were low this year.
		The effect of the PWS abstractions on river flows will be analysed once the River Wylye groundwater model is updated, this process has been started by the Environment Agency; the work is partly funded by Wessex Water.

		Nearby Yeovilton was recorded as the hottest place in England, so we went south down the little road that runs beside the River Piddle in search of cool shadows and running streams.
		At Alton Pancras, cows were crowding against the rail to drink from the stream that runs in a gully beside the village street.
		Already, with a quarter of an hour to go, there was a queue of 50 or so, and 20 cars were parked in the meadow where an odd octagonal structure, now a crumbling, overgrown ruin, windowless but stylish and ornate, looks down from the edge of a wood.

	Abstraction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Whilst the reduction in flow and water within rivers and streams is easily recognised and quantifiable, there does appear to be some speculation as to the real impact that this does have upon the indigenous fish populations within the UK.
		It seems likely that water abstraction in rivers such as the Itchen is leading to reduced water flow, which in turn leads to a reduced ability of the stream or river to carry suspended particles which could lead to increased siltation.
		In either case, the siltation of previously gravelled river beds, especially in chalk streams, is thought to be inhibiting the spawning behaviour of salmonids.

	Low flow rivers - environmental monitoring
		In perennial river reaches the Lotic-invertebrate Index for Flow Evaluation (LIFE) is a method that allows the aquatic invertebrate community recorded at a site to be scored according to its dependence on current velocity.
		The plant community of the Upper Piddle does not show a classic transition from winterbourne to perennial type.Â The community in the upper reaches is representative of good perennial chalk headwaters showing typical seasonal changes of spring dominance of brook water crowfoot followed by autumn dominance of cress species.
		The fish population of the Upper Piddle largely consists of bullhead and brown trout.Â Both species suffered when stream support was lost in October and those fish that were unable to reach pools with adequate water died.

	The Rivers of Purbeck
		It is the River Frome which marks the boundary to the North of the Isle of Purbeck and which separates Wareham, which lies on the Northern side of the river, from the isle itself.
		The smaller River Piddle was more commonly used for angling and fishing rights can be traced back to King Alfred when they were probably exercised as they are today.
		The Royalty includes one of the largest areas of permanent grassland on the Southcoast and is of importance for wintering and breeding birds which find the reed and scrub an ideal habitat for Cetti’s warblers and bearded tits.

		P.I. Dr Geraldene Wharton A key issue for groundwater-fed rivers in lowland England is the recently identified increase in suspended sediment loads and concentrations of macro-nutrients linked to changes in land use and river management practices.
		The overall aim of the project is to provide a process-based understanding of the trapping, retention and biological transformations of fine sediment in chalk river reaches dominated by submerged macrophytes.
		One component of the research is investigating the effect of submerged in-stream vegetation (specifically Ranunculus sp.) on river flow velocities and fine sediment deposition.

		The study began in 1993 on the River Piddle at Tolpuddle in Dorset where Richard Slocock has run a successful catch-and-release wild brown trout fishery for many years.
		This means the river lacks the diversity of bends, pools and riffles natural streams tend to have and so has a reduced variety of habitats for trout of different ages.
		In parts of the River Piddle there are weirs and dams which impound water, sometimes for hundreds of metres upstream.
