Monitoring water flows on Glenthorne

A new flow mon­i­tor­ing sta­tion has been installed at Glen­thorne to pro­vide envi­ron­men­tal engi­neers and ecol­o­gists with impor­tant infor­ma­tion on water flows enter­ing the prop­er­ty from Majors Road.

The flow mon­i­tor­ing sta­tion was installed late last month and will pro­vide real-time flow mea­sure­ments that will be used in con­junc­tion with rain­fall mea­sured across South Road at Hap­py Val­ley Reser­voir to devel­op a sophis­ti­cat­ed rain­fall-runoff mod­el for the park.
