  • Mwr/ to Keep the Monthly Weather Review As Timely As Possible, Much of the Information Is Based on Electronic Reports
    Monthly Weather Review Australia December 2013 The Monthly Weather Review - Australia is produced by the Bureau of Meteorology to provide a concise but informative overview of the temperatures, rainfall and significant weather events in Australia for the month. This product replaces the seven State and Territory Monthly Weather Reviews that were produced from January 1965 to June 2013, and are available electronically back to July 2008 at www.bom.gov.au/climate/mwr/ To keep the Monthly Weather Review as timely as possible, much of the information is based on electronic reports. Although every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of these reports, the results can be considered only preliminary until complete quality control procedures have been carried out. Any major discrepancies will be noted in later issues. We are keen to ensure that the Monthly Weather Review is appropriate to its readers' needs. If you have any comments or suggestions, please contact us: National Climate Centre Bureau of Meteorology GPO Box 1289 Melbourne VIC 3001 Australia [email protected] www.bom.gov.au Units of measurement Except where noted, temperature is given in degrees Celsius (°C), rainfall in millimetres (mm), and wind speed in kilometres per hour (km/h). Observation times and periods Each station in Australia makes its main observation for the day at 9 am local time. At this time, the precipitation over the past 24 hours is determined, and maximum and minimum thermometers are also read and reset. In this publication, the following conventions are used for assigning dates to the observations made: Maximum temperatures are for the 24 hours from 9 am on the date mentioned.

  • Sunwater Dams Sunwater Makes a Significant Contribution to the Rural, Industrial, Energy, Mining and Urban Development of Queensland by Providing Water Solutions
    SunWater Dams SunWater makes a significant contribution to the rural, industrial, energy, mining and urban development of Queensland by providing water solutions. Over the past 80 years, SunWater has designed and managed the construction of 30 of Queensland’s dams, 82 weirs and barrages, 39 reservoirs and balancing storages and rural and bulk water infrastructure systems. Currently, SunWater owns and manages 19 dams in Queensland and each dam has been strategically built in existing river, stream or creek locations to serve the needs of the region. A dam is a critical component of a water supply scheme which can be made up of weirs and barrages, pumping stations, pipelines and channels, and drains. The overall scheme is designed to supply water for various purposes including town water supply, irrigation, electricity production, industrial i.e. power stations, mines, stock and groundwater supply. Water Supply Scheme Pipeline Industrial & Mining Dam Drain Pumping Station Channel Legend Balancing Storage SunWater Infrastructure Purpose of Water Supply Weir Irrigation Town Barrage Water Supply Dam Types The type of dam is defined by how the dam wall was constructed. Depending on the surrounding environment, SunWater dams can be described as one or more Scheme of the following: Pipeline Cania Dam Boondooma Dam Wuruma Dam Paradise Dam Julius Dam EMBANKMENT CONCRETE FACED MASS CONCRETE ROLLER COMPACTED MULTIPLE ARCH Industrial & Mining ROCKFILL GRAVITY CONCRETE GRAVITY CONCRETE Constructed as an Constructed as an BUTTRESS embankment of well Constructed using a Constructed in horizontal embankment of compacted Constructed as concrete compacted clay (earthfill) some large volume of layers of dryer than normal free-draining granular earth horizontal arches supported with rock on the faces (rockfill).
