HOW TO INSTALL A PIEZOMETER TO TEST SALINITY

HOW TO INSTALL A PIEZOMETER TO TEST SALINITY
A piezometer is a small bore hole used to help us define where the depth of the water table is and to collect water from depth and test the salinity to help make decisions.
The Mallee Seeps project has piezometers installed at all of our demonstration and research sites sometimes in multiple locations for example on top of sand hill, mid-slope and on the flats.
We can also use piezometers to monitor the effectiveness of treatments that have been used to prevent seeps for example, where lucerne, tall wheat grass or trees have been planted.
Farmers with seeps can install their own piezometers on farm.
We have put together the exact step by step process in this video.
