We were unable to determine the berm height above the estuary.

The Height Gauge on the Bridge Pylon is encrusted with coral and other debris, and is impossible to read accurately.  I photograph the gauge, then enlarge it on my computer and scale the gauge to get approximate values, but this is becoming more difficult as the encrustations on the gauge increase.

We were unable to measure the Berm height above the river level.

Height Gauge on bridge pylon is unreadable over the bottom half.  Requires cleaning or replacement.

Height readings in the Data Sheet are scaled off photos of the height gauge.

Photos of the height gauge at the start and the end of the Monitoring session are shown below.

We were unable to monitor at the Boggie Creek site because of flooding of the area.   

Blue-green algae is present along the edge of the estuary.

Hach Multifunction meter did not register one of the probes when tested.  We tested with one probe in the functioning side of the meter, then connected the other probe into the functioning port.

Thanks for re-securing the upper section of the Height Gauge

However, the lower section of the Height Gauge is covered by coral, and could not be read.

I have scaled the height on my computer

the great variety of weathers occurring over the past weeks has made it impossible to give a Mode weather report.

The photos of the height gauge show that the height gauge is coming adrift from the bridge pylon, and needs to be re-secured.

Height gauge top section is coming away from bridge.

Curdies River estuary closed on Friday 3 Feb 2023

The Height Gauge on the Bridge at Peterborough needs repair. The top half of the gauge is coming adrift.  See attached photo.

We are using our last container of calibration Solution for the Hach Meter.  Additional supplies will be required soon.

Adam Nash participated in our monitoring session, but I was not able to list him on the website as a participant.  Could you please modify the list of "Samplers" to include our new members, and to delete those names of people that we have not heard from for several years.
