    The groundwater temperature is measured at different points in the Roujan catchment. In Roujan site, the groundwater is shallow with a free surface water table rising and falling in the soil and subsoil layers. The measurements are made at different points in the catchment with piezometers. A piezometer is a perforated PVC tube at its base installed in the soil through a borehole. In every piezometer, the groundwater temperature is monitored at high frequency (~15') with autonomous and automatic temperature probe integrating acquisition units. Through the OMERE data portal accessible from this website, the data can be downloaded from an interactive map.

    The rainfall of the Roujan (Hérault) catchment area has been acquired since 1992 through various measuring points on which sensors are positioned on a long-term and continuous basis. The data from these sensors are directly recorded on servers in Montpellier through remote transmission. Verification treatments and possible corrections are applied before the data sets are integrated into the HYSAE database. Through the OMERE data portal accessible from this sheet, the data can be downloaded from an interactive map. In addition to these raw data rainfall records, a so-called "synthetic" time serie is elaborated to provide a complete and uninterrupted chronicle of rainfall data representative for the catchment area.

  • Regular sampling of surface water, rainwater or groundwater is carried out in the Roujan catchment area. These samples are sampled and analysed in order to assess the content of trace metals in the waters of the basin.

    Pesticide contents are determined on the suspended matter extracted by filtration (0,7µm) in runoff water. Contents allow quantification of particula transport of pesticides and allow too compare it to solute transport.

    water samples ( rain, runoff, underground water) are carried in icebox and frozen. ( FILTRATION ? ). Samples are analyzed by a dedicated laboratory, that quantify a set of parameters including from 1 to 430 pesticide active ingredients and their metabolites.

    The monitoring of suspended sediment loads in runoff and stream flows aims to quantify the amount of sediments translocated during runoff events. These measurements contribute to the understanding and the quantification of the soil redistribution induced by water erosion processes. The measurements of suspended matter are made through manual and automated water sampling at the hydrological stations, which are then processed and analysed in the laboratory to derive suspended sediment concentrations. A turbidimeter has been recently installed to complete the time series of sediment discharge. Suspended sediment concentrations are integrated into the HYSAE database, they can subsequently be consulted and downloaded via the OMERE data portal.

    Water sampling in rain, runoff and undergroundwater are performed on the fields and send to a specialized laboratory to quantify major elements contents (Ca, Mg, Na, K, SO4, PO4, HCO3, NO3) ( FILTRATION ???. PH ??? ? EC, ???)

    The evaluation of soil moisture in different areas of the Roujan catchment area is carried out by measuring the moisture content of fresh soil samples.

    Isotope analysis of groundwater, rainfall and surface water in the Roujan watershed area. Samples of rainfall accumulated over a day or an event as well as instantaneous samples of runoff and groundwater are sent to a specialized laboratory to determine their oxygen 18 and deuterium contents.
