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.

The groundwater temperature is measured at different points in the Kamech catchment. In Kamech 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.

A flow tower is installed on the watershed of Roujan as well as a meteorological station of the AgroClim service unit (INRAE). At these points a set of sensors are arranged in order to collect various meteorological variables such as wind speed, air humidity and temperature, global radiation or evapotranspiration. Just like the other measurements made on the basin by sensors, data acquisition units record the values which are transmitted several times a day to our servers at the INRAE centre in Montpellier or retrieved via Agroclim's webservice. R routines are then used to process these data and prepare them for integration into the HYSAE database of the LISAH, thus integrating them into the information system for OMERE. Through the OMERE data web portal, the address of which is given in this fact sheet, the data can be consulted and downloaded.
