Reservoir Surveys
- Reservoir surveys are conducted for the purpose of updating the area-capacity relationship and computing annual sediment inflow to project useful operation of their existing facilities.
The group works on numerous applied research projects as well as developing manuals and guidelines. Visit the Knowledge Base for downloadable reports and papers.
