dc.description.abstract | This report has been prepared for the SEQ Urban Water Security Research Alliance for the purposes
of assessing the potential for floating and suspended covers to reduce evaporation from water storages
in South East Queensland (SEQ). In SEQ, large water storages or dams are the primary drinking water
supply. The volume of water lost through evaporation each year is roughly equivalent to the SEQ
water usage. This considerable loss of water indicates that research into innovative techniques for
reducing evaporation could prove beneficial as demand increases in SEQ with rapid population
growth. This report forms one of a group of reports, each of which assesses the applicability of different evaporation mitigation techniques to SEQ water supply systems. | |
