Case study 1: Polders of Pijnacker
Abstract
Two water systems of a completely different nature have been selected to develop the methods for monitorig network design, namely a polder system, in order to take into account a flat, highly controlled water system and a major natural river in order to consider uncontrolled, stream flows. For the first case, the polder system of the region of Pijnacker, The Netherlands, is described in this chapter. For the second case, the Magdalena River, Colombia, is introduced and described in Chapter 4 . The methods for locating monitors are presented in Chapters 5, 6 and 7.
