MANUAL OF SIMPLE FIELD TECHNIQUES FOR MEASURING WATER LEVEL FLUCTUATIONS AND SURFACE CURRENT PATTERNS

Abstract

The manual is designed to provide the non-professional hydrographer with the necessary techniques for taking water level and current measurements in rivers and canals. Those techniques which negate the need for sophisticated field equipment are stressed. Examples of data recording forms and instructions are provided to aid in collecting field observations.
