  1. River Morphology/Weather Training TOPS Algonquin Expedition

  2. Measurements • Width • Depth Profile • Flow rates (with Probe Technicians) • Images (with Imaging Technician) • Encoding data on FDS • Weather Observations

  3. Width • With measure with ‘throw’ at location of the dotted line • Along same line profile is to be made.

  4. Depth Profile x River Cross-section • Measure profile depths by hand or use the UHT • Go out as far as it is safe to do so. • If you can cross go in from both sides • x should be the same for each division WCD X3 WCD X2 WCD X1

  5. Velocity Profile (Flow Rates) x – same as in depth profile Measure velocity at same location as depth was measured. WCVx1 …WCVX10

  6. Images of the water course at the cross-section site. Bed and Bank Images (2) Drawings Provide assistance to artist Image and such like are to be taken by the trained technician, but you need to tell them where these images need to be taken and to make sure that it has been done. Co-ordination with other technicians

  7. Encoding River Data on FDS1 Water Course Speed at X8 – in metres per second (ms-1) with an implied decimal between the two digits. Water Course Depth at x1 – in metres with an implied decimal point between the two digits Use a medium point “sharpie” type marker draw in the segments required to form the number that your data requires. You MUST stay on the fine grey lines when doing so. You will be marked on the ability of the AHP computer program to read your scans. x – in metres with an implied decimal point between the two digits

  8. Weather Observations • Cloud Type (CT) – Types on code key • Cloud Cover (CC) – 0, 10, 20, …, 90% • Precipitation (PCP) – Type codes on code key • Wind Speed (WS) – in ms-1 – integer units only • Wind Direction (WD) – From table in code key Local Time (24 hr clock)
