Water Quality Team

Centennial Parklands, in partnership with Sydney Water Corporation, has developed a program that allows volunteers to learn the 'How's' and 'Why's' of measuring water quality.

Volunteers learn about the interconnectedness of different abiotic (non living) features  and their influences on the pond ecosystem. The group measures turbidity, pH, temperature, electrical conductivity, dissolved Oxygen and phosphates in different Centennial Park ponds.

Data is recorded and uploaded onto Sydney Water’s Streamwatch Website at www.streamwatch.org.au.
