Case study 2: Magdalena River
Abstract
In order to analyse the performance, validity and implications of the methods for monitor location developed in Chapters 5, 6 and 7, two water systems of completely different nature are considered in this Thesis. First, the polder system of the region of Pijnacker, The Netherlands, introduced and described in Chapter 3 , was selected as being representative of a flat, highly controlled water system. Second, in order to include a natural stream, the Magdalena River, Colombia, is introduced and described in this Chapter.
