Wilson Inlet Bar Opening - 2017

  • Опубликовано: 28 авг 2017
  • In most years, the Wilson Inlet bar is opened, primarily to mitigate against flooding adjacent low-lying land. The timing and location of the opening is managed by the Water Corporation as per an agreed protocol. In 2017, the bar was opened by dredging a channel to the ocean at an Inlet water level of 1.27 m AHD and 100 metres from the Western cliffs reference point.
    This was the highest bar opening since 1978 which had an estimated elevation of 1.25 m AHD at the time of opening.
    Approximately 27 GL of water (~14% of the Inlet volume) was discharged to the ocean in the first 24 hours post-opening. The volumetric flow rate was recorded as 210 m³/s on the Friday at 2 pm. The high water level and strong flow effectively scoured the bar to a width of approximately 150 metres.
    The Inlet height, the opening, impact on the bar and ocean discharge was captured with a drone by Ash Ramsay (Department of Water and Environmental Regulation, South West region).

    To address a couple of questions. Denmark Western Australia approximately 400klms SSE of Perth . And the water is coloured by tannin from leaf litter but the high rainfall in the area ensures its pretty clean. Great fishing fresh and salt and good surf, just watch for Great Whites !

      @@IstasPumaNevada I live on the Greenough River at Cape Burney 460klms north of Perth Western Australia and up until this winter it hadn't been open to the sea for quite a while and as a result was green, slimey and smelly. I know you shouldn't mess with nature but sorry people but circumstances aren't natural anymore. Huge properties take water and roadworks and bridges change flow rates so there might be a case for manmade intervention to open them up periodically to keep them fresh and attractive to fishers, tourists and others.

    These inland connections to the sea should always be kept open, it improves fish habitat, water quality and will stop the lake turning into a dead water smelly pond, it happens a lot to the much smaller ones all over Australia. Greenies should research about this subject and stop giving advice about what they know little about.

      Ignoring the trolling, the wildlife of such places will have evolved and adapted to whatever naturally happens there. They don't "need" to be maintained by people.
      Any sort of biological hazard that happens that is actually bad (like abnormal algae blooms) is usually a product of human activity; agricultural runoff, other forms of pollution, global warming, etc., and in that case we should worry about preventing the root cause, not be satisfied with alleviating the symptoms.

      I've dug a channel through sand to let water through it before. Even if you get it going a little, there's no guarantee it won't fill with sediment, slow, and peter out.
      Or it might take forever to get going.
      Using the excavator means they can be SURE it will progress to empty the whole thing, and it will also be in a shorter timeframe so they don't have to stick around as long making sure no idiots get swept out to sea by the strongest part of the flow.

      Remember: Lawyers aren't inherently a problem; they only exist as a consequence of the systems we have in place. They're also a natural consequence of an organized society with a system of laws. Most problems you have with lawyers are ACTUALLY a problem with the laws or those enforcing/making them.

      Not so sure, the oceans create these natural dams with wave action during high tides. In a number of places, depending on the rivers amount of flow the river flows perpendicular to the ocean for quite a ways until it finds a way out. Some stagnate and some do not. The Spaniards in the old days did not find San Francisco bay for many years because of a situation like this, in theory.

    @larrysorenson4789 3 года назад

    Newport Beach California is about a mile long inlet with only one opening at its south end. Tidal flushing is not adequate to provide fresh ocean water to the northern extremes of the bay. As a result that water is brackish and can be unpleasant. If a channel or pipe was dredged at this northern extreme, the ocean current would continually provide a way for water to flow through the bay increasing the quality of the water there. Being in California and with zillion dollar beach homes built on every available square inch of dry land you can imagine the uproar that would accompany any plan that would modify the status quo. Still it would result in an improved environment for them all. Since the water level historically changes with the tides and all of the homes are above that high tide line, it is probable that the land areas would be unaffected by a change like I have suggested. Still providing the report, the public and secret meetings leading o an approval would take decades. It is easy to lead a donkey to water. Making it drink is another thing altogether.

      Usually a king tide or significant rain events will open it up.
      The body of water has its own bio diversity that relies on the cyclical process of opening and closing.
      Most councils tend not to interfere with the process however here it looks like there was some flooring on the road so that may have been why they manually opened it up.

      @@paulhoughton5164 lower right corner, before you put the video on full screen, you'll see an "arrow". Click on it to expand the introduction. I tried to copy & paste but couldn't. Basically it's flood control when the sandbar builds up and prevents the river from freely flowing into the ocean. The cut through the sandbar, the river opens it wider & flooding further upstream in the river is prevented. It will open up by itself with a big storm, but by then too much damage is done. The ocean will build the sandbar again, and sometimes takes it away again. When it doesn't take it away, they intervene by creating the channel. Happens all over the world. River flowing into ocean happens naturally. all over the world.
