Effectiveness according to development targets of measure
Definition of development targets:
Influencing the oxygen conditions in the inner harbor by allowing the water exchange between the southern branch of the Elbe (‘Süderelbe’) and the adjacent channels (‘Reiherstieg’) and harbor basins during situations of low oxygen conditions.
Achievement of development targets
The hydrodynamic modeling study on managing the sluice showed that it is possible to affect the oxygen conditions inside the ‘Reiherstieg’ channel by a different opening scheme of the sluice.
