River Ythan
The Ythan is a river in the north-east of Scotland rising at Wells of Ythan near the village of Ythanwells and flowing south-eastwards through the towns of Fyvie, Methlick and Ellon before flowing into the North Sea near Newburgh, in Formartine. The name is believed to have originated from a Pictish word of Brythonic origin meaning gorse. The lower reach of the river is known as the Ythan Estuary, a Special Protection Area for conservation, particularly the breeding ground of three tern species (common tern, little tern and Sandwich tern) (Lumina, 2004). The River Ythan has a length of 60 km and a catchment area of 680 km2. As figures of the discharge, 6 m3/s 〔(Eutrophication Assessment Reports 2006: Ythan estuary )〕 or 7,2 m3/s〔(Elaine McAlister, Nelleke Domburg, Tony Edwards, Bob Ferrier, ''Hydrological Modelling of the River Ythan using ArcInfo GRID'' )〕 are given. ==See also==
