[dmwg] A brief report on the DMWG's emergency meeting on March 14 and request for follow-up actions

Thu Mar 17 12:09:57 ICT 2016

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to share with you the Automatic real time monitoring system in
Can Tho. We have real time recorded of 8 stations in the river systems in
Can Tho. The system can detect the saline water every 30 minutes/ 24hr of
everyday and public the data on the website http://nhiemmanct.vn/
We can access to the data sources in the bar "Số liệu thống kê" on the
website
Attached is the salinity data recorded on March 8 with the highest level
was 2%o.
Hope it helps

Best regards,
Huy
