During COP highest diurnal discharge values were observed in Aug_II whereas
lower values were recorded in September. Relatively flat diurnal hydrograph of
Sep_II (excepting 2003, 2004 and 2007) suggest decreasing input from ablation
and discharge is mainly contributed by basal melting, besides ground water
(Fig. 14).
