Gauge height 0.160 m. Very cold morning. Water and air temp taken under road bridge at sample point next to gauge.It was observed that Arthurs Creek today is diluting the salinity of the Diamond Creek, because this site was quite salty, whereas the salinity of the Diamond Creek downstream of Arthurs Creek is much lower. Very turbid water, phos and ammonium were attemped to test, but water was too turbid to read accurately.
