Inlet parameters
• Oglio inflow
– 0.174 ppt; 19 degC, 15 m3/s.
– Diurnal oscillation in salinity, temperature and
flow rate.
• Channel inflow
– 0.056 ppt; 14 degC, 48 m3/s.
– Diverted 20km upstream to hydropower station.

Transects
• Some transects, upto 3km ofshore, clearly
show the low salinity inlet signal.
Drogue Release
• Drogue trajectory matches
well with low salinity
• Velocity comparison with
shear waves.
• Oglio inflow drogues
travelled east.
Future work
• Higher resolution transects.
• Compensate salinity for Iseo’s ionic
composition.
