Deploying Thermal Stratification Monitoring in Reservoirs Using Shanghai ChiMay Conductivity and pH Sensors
Understanding Thermal Stratification and Its Impact on Water Quality Most drinking water reservoirs in temperate and tropical climates undergo seasonal thermal stratification—a process in which solar heating creates distinct temperature layers in the water column. The warm, less-dense epilimnion floats atop the cold, denser hypolimnion, separated by the metalimnion (thermocline), where temperature changes by 1–2°C…
