Meander Monitor

Water in the region

How much water the landscape around Wageningen is holding. Groundwater level is a good proxy for the state of the whole system — it is what feeds the brooks and meanders, so it sets the context for the videos volunteers send us.

Pressure

Water level is derived from the gap between these two: the water column above the sensor is what is left after air pressure is subtracted. Both are shown in hPa — the API reports water pressure in Pa, converted here so a single axis is honest.
