Download or read book Efficient On line Monitoring of Water Quality Using Automated Measuring Stations written by Queralt Plana Puig and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [ANGLÈS] Automated Measuring Stations for river quality monitoring have been used to generate on-line measurements of water quality variables. Even though a high degree of automation has been implemented at the levels of measurements, maintenance and control, data management and the resulting access to errors and uncertainties. Besides managing a monitoring program, there is the responsibility to ensure high quality data with data and methods that are broadly accessible, and as cost-e ective as possible. Moreover, higher assurance is needed to analyse, interpret, and apply data that are being collected so as to form monitoring networks that are designed to promote comparability of data across sites and across scales of space and time. monEAU (monitoring of water, "eau" in French) is the next generation of water quality monitoring networks. This project has as vision to provide some tools to get a exible and open modular system, a high quality/performance database, remote use, automatic data quality assessment, user-friendly and user-oriented software, and proactive and exible maintenance. In the context of the project, the objective of this thesis was to e ciently monitor, collect and manipulate water quality data such that unreliable data due to anomalies in sensors, insu cient maintenance tasks, severe environmental conditions and other external factors can be minimized. To achieve these goals it was required to maintain and keep the monitoring stations working, collect the data, analyse samples in the laboratory to verify sensor data, create an appropriate database, import all collected data to a database, and nally export the data to statistics software and data manipulation programs for posterior analysis.

Download or read book Watershed Management for Potable Water Supply written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-02-17 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1997, New York City adopted a mammoth watershed agreement to protect its drinking water and avoid filtration of its large upstate surface water supply. Shortly thereafter, the NRC began an analysis of the agreement's scientific validity. The resulting book finds New York City's watershed agreement to be a good template for proactive watershed management that, if properly implemented, will maintain high water quality. However, it cautions that the agreement is not a guarantee of permanent filtration avoidance because of changing regulations, uncertainties regarding pollution sources, advances in treatment technologies, and natural variations in watershed conditions. The book recommends that New York City place its highest priority on pathogenic microorganisms in the watershed and direct its resources toward improving methods for detecting pathogens, understanding pathogen transport and fate, and demonstrating that best management practices will remove pathogens. Other recommendations, which are broadly applicable to surface water supplies across the country, target buffer zones, stormwater management, water quality monitoring, and effluent trading.
