When peak discharge rates and peak lag times for the pipes were plotted against the area drained by the pipes, the patterns fit neatly in-between diffuse throughflow and saturation overland flow, as plotted by Anderson and Burt (1990). The range of contributing area amongst the 17 Maesnant pipes is naturally far smaller than the USDA data used by the latter, nevertheless, the limited Maesnant data suggest similar trends: high peak lag times with increasing size of contributing area and peak runoff rates decreasing with drainage area (Jones, 1997a; 2010b).
