Hydrographers with the St. John River Water Management District (SJRWMD) geared up quarterly for an extensive study of a six-mile reach of Florida’s Silver River.
Mitch Wainwright of the St. John River Water Management District (SJRWMD) figures he paddled more 200 to 300 miles while measuring depth, flow and velocity of a six-mile reach of the Silver River in 2015 and 2016.
Using four acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs), the SJRWMD team gathered extensive data on the height of underwater vegetation and the flow of water in the Silver River—insight that will help managers protect the pollution-prone system.
The M9 ADCP in the RiverSurveyor switches acoustic frequencies automatically to provide seamless, accurate data as depth and conditions change.
