		Dartmouth is a small seaside town in the English county of Devon.
		Dartmouth continued despite this setback and, nearly a thousand years after being the staging point for the King's Warfleets the Royal Navy became the main focus of the town.
		In the closing days of the war Dartmouth again saw a great fleet gathering in it's waters, yet this was not headed for the holy lands, this was the D-Day fleet which launched from Dartmouth to liberate Normany and bring about the end of the war.

	At Marinews exploring ? Dartmouth Dam. Fishing and exploring the beautiful Dartmouth Dam in northern Victoria.
		Dartmouth Dam, situated in the mountains of north eastern Victoria, is one of the state?s trout fishing Meccas.
		Dartmouth was completed in 1979 by damming the Mitta Mitta and Dart Rivers and contributes to the Murray Valley Irrigation System by assisting to regulate the Hume Weir, which in turn regulates the Murray River.
		The dam was stocked with rainbow trout between 1979 and 1981 while the dam was filling but this no longer occurs as the authorities believe sufficient breeding occurs in the myriad of feeder streams.

	The Dartmouth Free Press : Dartmouth Divests
		The Trustees of Dartmouth College had concluded their meeting the previous day, and the final decision was made public.
		This is the third time in the history of Dartmouth College that certain investments have been found morally and ethically untenable; in light of that, it is important to understand how divestment happened and what implications it does or does not have for the future.
		Dartmouth was not single-handedly bankrolling genocide, and our divestment has not made the violence stop.

	Dam: Definition and Links by Encyclopedian.com
		Rock-fill dams are embankments of loose rock with either a watertight upstream face of concrete slabs or timber or a watertight core.
		Earth dams are constructed as a simple homogeneous embankment of well-compacted earth, sometimes with a watertight concrete core or upstream face, or sometimes with a hydraulic fill to produce a watertight core.
		A type of temporary earth dam occasionally used in high lattitudes is the frozen-core dam, in which a coolant is circulated through pipes inside the dam to maintain a watertight region of permafrost within it.

		Instead DAM readers seeking more information on the reasoning behind the suit are provided with a link to this forum, along with a caution that this is not a “family-friendly” place.
		Dartmouth students want to understand two things: “how do I explain to friends why alumni are suing my College, and how does this entire governance debate affect me?” As reported in The Dartmouth, the president-elect of the Alumni Council believes there is no explanation.
		Dartmouth is special in the role alumni have participating in her governance, through the selection of alumni trustees.

	JacquesLeslie: Deep Water- Australia
		Hume is a blunt instrument, an earth-rock-and-concrete barrier dam, whose downstream face, topped by a row of gates and supporting superstructure when the dam’s height was raised by 27 feet in 1961, seems to smile luridly, and whose spillway is streaked with mascara-like water stains.
		Dartmouth’s role is largely dictated by geography: its watershed is only a fourth as big as Hume’s, which means that its reservoir takes much longer— up to ten years— to fill.
		Dartmouth is a sleek earth-and-rock-filled slab that points like an arrow into the ravished bed of the Mitta Mitta River, a Murray tributary near the top of the Basin— it looks like an aboriginal spear turned on itself, skewering the earth.

		Construction of the Dam was completed in 1979 by the Rural Water Commission, on behalf of the River Murray Commission - the authority responsible for regulating the waters of the River Murray.
		The Dartmouth Dam embankment is a zoned earth and rockfill structure 180 metres high from the lowest part of the foundation to the roadway across the top of the dam.
		As an alternative to releases through the power station located at the foot of the dam, releases can be made for irrigation supplies by means of a bypass and two fixed-cone dispersion valves that have been installed in a valve house adjacent to the power station.

	Managed Rivers as Large-Scale Experiments in Geomorphic Processes III Posters - Hydrology [H]
		Most dams block all coarse sediment traveling downstream, such that reaches downstream are commonly typically depleted of gravel, causing a variety of effects such as incision, bank erosion, coarsening of the bed material, and reduction of salmonid spawning habitiat.
		Dams represent a significant perturbation on streams by influencing the supply of water and sediment to downstream reaches.
		Dams are well known for trapping sediment and altering natural flow regimes that affect downstream channel geometry and the distribution of riparian vegetation.

	Murray River
		During the 20th century a large number of dams were constructed in the river's headwaters, including the Hume Dam, Dartmouth Dam, and the complex dam and pipeline system of the Snowy Mountains Scheme.
		These dams inverted the patterns of the river's natural flow from the original winter-spring flood and summer-autumn dry to the present low level through winter and higher during summer.
		These changes ensured the availability of water for irrigation and made the Murray Valley Australia's most productive agricultural region, but have seriously disrupted the life cycles of many ecosystems both inside and outside the river, and the irrigation has led to dryland salinity that now threatens the agricultural industries.

		These dams were of the cyclopean masonry type, that is, large blocks of rock were embedded in the concrete in order to economise in the use of cement.
		A further recent development in dam building is to use low cement content gravels known as rollcrete and to place and compact this material with earth-moving plants in thin layers without joints.
		In 1966 no completely successful concrete-faced dam over 80 m high was in operation in the world and the HEC set out to determine the design and construction practices required to minimise the leakage problems which had been experienced in previous dams of this type.

		In short, the dam was a testimony to Portugal’s “civilizing mission” framed in the ideology of high modernism. The construction of Cahora Bassa dam evoked quite a different response from FRELIMO (Frente de Libertação de Moçambique, or Front for the Liberation of Mozambique).
		While numerous case studies have explored the social and political aspects of dam projects, their ecological consequences, and the manner in which social and ecological impacts are intertwined, Cahora Bassa has received little attention.
		In light of the devastating social and ecological consequences of Cahora Bassa the official representation of the new dam as a path toward progress requires officials and experts disconnected from the countryside to silence the rural poor.

		Dartmouth Dam is the largest storage in the Murray and one of the most important storages in the system.
		One of the consequences of regulating the river with dams and weirs to enable irrigation is that the normal streamflows are reversed.
		Instead of the high flows in winter and spring resulting in flooding of the wetlands, the river is low during winter and spring as the water is being captured in dams and then high during the summer when it is needed by irrigators.

		Dams also effect habitats, fish migrations, and can displace communities.
		Dams also ‘silt up’ over time because the water on the upstream side of the dam drops its sediment load when it stops in the upstream reservoir.
		During this decade, 500 dams are due to be re-licensed, ensuring that hydropower will continue into this century as a completely renewable resource.
