Abstract:
The River Wylye at the Kingston Deverill (the Hants Avon DTC) monitoring site (KDAS) had a suite of instruments installed, including an Analite NEP395 for the measurement of turbidity and an AADI 4175 oxygen optode for the measurement of dissolved oxygen (DO) and temperature. A CNS type submersible pressure transducer was used to measure stage height and a mainstream doppler velocity transmitter was used to measure flow velocity. Stage height and flow velocity was imputed into a Mace Flo Pro to estimate flow discharge at 15-minute resolution. All instruments were continuously monitored remotely and downloaded data were stored on a CR200 data logger. An ISCO 3370 sampler was used to collect daily water samples from the river for further analysis in the project laboratory. All N species and P fractions were analysed on a Skalar San++ continuous flow analyser. NPOC was measured by catalytic oxidation on a Shimadzu TOC analyser.
