From the table on p. 181 it will be seen that in the eleven lochs under 
consideration 728 soundings were taken, and that the aggregate area of 
the water-surface is 3| square miles, so that the average number of 
soundings per square mile of surface is 194. The aggregate volume 
of water contained in the lochs is estimated at 5475 millions of cubic 
feet. The area drained by these lochs is just over 35j square miles, or 
times the area of the lochs.
