A coastal monitoring project carried out for CSIR-NIO using ten automatic data stations to study the influence of tidal variation on water quality and water level along the Munambam–Alappuzha coastal stretch.
10 Stations
Automatic data monitoring
2 Parameters
Water quality & water level
Coastal Study
Munambam–Alappuzha stretch
The Project
Tracking tidal influence across a coastal stretch.
The Requirement
Monitor tidal variation along the Munambam–Alappuzha coast
Study how tides influence water level
Observe associated changes in water quality
Collect data across multiple locations rather than from a single point
EMCON’s Solution
Deployed ten automatic data stations
Enabled distributed monitoring along the coastal stretch
Recorded data related to tidal variation, water level and water quality
Supported CSIR-NIO’s study of tidal dynamics in the Kochi coastal region
