The installation phase of the monitoring network for the internal waters of the Caorle Lagoon, financed by the Interreg Poseidon Project, has been completed.
Of the 7 stations of which the monitoring network is composed, 5 are dedicated to the measurement of the chemical-physical parameters of the lagoon waters and allow a continuous reading of important environmental data, which will make it possible to assess and monitor the state of ecological health of the lagoon ecosystem.

The 2 remaining stations, located at the mouths of the 2 main canals crossing the Caorle Lagoon (the Nicesolo canal and the Dei Lovi canal), measure the flow of water both outgoing from the lagoon and incoming from the sea.
These two probes represent a unicum in the field of environmental monitoring, both in terms of application context and the width of the measured mouth.
The data collected by these sensors will make it possible to achieve greater knowledge of sea-lagoon interchanges, a better understanding of tidal dynamics, and the monitoring of the effects of extreme events such as floods and periods of drought. Soon, the data collected by these monitoring stations will also be available in a web portal for free consultation by citizens.
