Those aspects of the design procedures for which there has been little previous work are then illustrated via additional elaboration in several Appendices using the New Zealand water quality management situation as an example. Emphasis in the Appendices is on statistical behaviour of the water quality random variables. The remaining, more traditional aspects of monitoring system design are dealt with in a summary fashion in the main body of the report. While the report and Appendices are build around the New Zealand situation, the findings are applicable to a wide range of water quality management strategiesItem type | Current library | Call number | Vol info | Copy number | Status | Date due | Barcode | |
