    In the area that she observed, the water level fell 13.64mm over 6.4 years, for an average annual rate of change of:

    -13.64 : 6.2 = - 2.2 mm / year.

    The difference between how much average water levels rose and how much water levels in her part of the river fell is:

    1.8 - (-2.2) = 4 mm/year

    During the 6.2 year period:

    4 mm/year * 6.2 = 24.8 mm
