摘要

Snowy Hydro Ltd. has performed a flushing flow trial at Jindabyne Dam designed to better mimic the natural flow characteristics seen in the Snowy Montane rivers. According to the Department of Primary Industries Office of Water in New South Wales, this flow variability technique, known as hydro-scaling, has three objectives: - To better reflect the hydrology of a Snowy Montane river, including increasing the daily, seasonal and annual flow variability; - To provide multiple high-flow events to meet the primary ecological objective of habitat improvement;"and - To fully test the infrastructure capability of Jindabyne Dam to provide variable flow rates.
