Funded Activity Summary

Maximizing reservoir water quality security through the use of a Lake Diagnostic System (LDS) and a Controlled Lagrangian Drogue (CLD). It is proposed to build on recent advancements in limnological research and existing measurement technologies to develop the hardware, algorithms and software to form a unique real time reservoir water quality management system, driven by minimal measurement inputs. This will remove the reliance on extensive expensive reservoir monitoring, previously necessary to characterize the lake spatial variability and seasonality, for full 3D modelling. This project will deliver to industry: two measurement tools to simplify reservoir monitoring, the LDS and CLD; and software tools to manage real time data collection, provide decision support to reservoir managers and to enable ?on-demand? scenario predictions.
