    What is the temperature of the Moselle water in each season around Perl / Schengen ? As there is no website that makes easily accessible historic data, I have decided to keep track manually and publish it here. The source of information is the German measuring service.

    This is an initial analysis of the evolution of the water level in Custines, F (km 343,6) and in Perl, D (km 242,0) to determine if there is a pattern that can be used to predict the level of water in Perl based on the level in Custines (about 100 km downstream). The current analysis…
