water level - final - max Explanation: I suppose these are two separate columns - in this case I would translate установившийся as "final" - the level that was finally established and появившийся as "mas" - literally "water level that appeared" but I interpret it as "the highest level observed" === You may check it by comparing the figures - if the figures in the second colum are greater than in the first column then "появившийся " should be considered max with very high probability |
