  Water integrator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Water Integrator was an early analog computer built in the Soviet Union in 1936.
It functioned by careful manipulation of water through a room full of interconnected pipes and pumps.
The level of water in various chambers (with precision to fractions of a millimeter) represented stored numbers, and the rate of flow between them represented mathematical operations.

 The Great and Little Miami River Basins Background Information   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Measurements are made to determine water chemistry in streams and aquifers; the quantity of suspended sediment and quality of bottom sediments in streams; the variety and number of fish, benthic invertebrates, and algae in streams; and contaminants in fish tissues.
Water column studies monitor physical and chemical characteristics, which include suspended sediment, major ions, nutrients, organic carbon, and dissolved pesticides, and their relation to hydrologic conditions, sources, and transport.
Water samples also are collected as part of synoptic (short-term) investigations of specific water-quality conditions or issues during a specific hydrologic period (for example during low streamflow) to provide greater spatial coverage and to allow investigators to assess whether the basic fixed or intensive fixed sites are representative of streams throughout the study unit.

 PROVISIONAL DATA -- SUBJECT TO REVISION
Integrator Sites represent water quality in large basins that is often affected by mixed land uses or a wide variety of natural influences.
Water samples were filtered using pre-combusted glass-fiber filters with a nominal 0.7-µm pore diameter to remove suspended particulate matter.
Water samples were analyzed for pesticides at the National Water Quality Laboratory (NWQL) of the USGS in Colorado.

 Surface-Water Activities for FY96-99
This network describes the occurrence and spatial distribution of water-quality constituents in surface water as related to the land use and water-quality concerns within the study unit.
Surface water synoptics were designed to further define the occurrence and distribution of water quality within the UCOL and to relate water quality conditions to specific types of land use.
Water quality samples were collected from 44 streams and agricultural drains in the Grand Valley and Uncompahgre River Valley during May 1998.

One indicator and one integrator fixed-site are in basins with predominantly urban land uses, six indicator sites are in basins with predominantly agricultural land uses, and two integrator sites are in basins with a combination of urban and agricultural land uses.
These specifications are that the urban land-use study be in a new-growth area of a large city where ground water is used as a source of drinking water, or where shallow ground water is hydraulically connected to a deeper source of drinking water.
Water samples are analyzed for concentrations of common anions and cations, dissolved nutrients, currently-used pesticides, VOCs, trace elements, dissolved organic carbon, radon, and tritium.

 NJDEP Strategic Watershed Monitoring Program   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Water quality data collected at the watershed integrator stations represent the overall impact of pollution sources (point and non-point) within the WMA.
To expand the assessment potential of the ambient surface water network's database, it must also be integrated with other information sources such as biomonitoring data, NJPDES compliance data, rainfall data, GIS data coverages, and air deposition data.
The revised ground water network will monitor water quality in a series of shallow wells and attempt to: (1) establish watershed specific relationships between landuse and water quality and (2) assess ground water impacts on surface water quality.

 USGS Yakima Basin NAWQA Study: Surface Water Quality
Integrator sites are established at downstream points in larger relatively heterogeneous drainage basins with complex combinations of land-use setting.
Water samples are also collected at other locations as part of (short-term) synoptic studies of specific water-quality conditions or issues during a specific hydrologic period (for example during peak irrigation) to provide greater spatial coverage.
During peak irrigation season, water is diverted from the Yakima River and supplied by both the Sunnyside Valley Irrigation District and Roza Irrigation District canals.

In analog computers, as opposed to digital computers, the states saved are not discrete values like the zeros and ones of most common computers, but are rather saved as a more continuous value.
For example, in the Water integrator the initial state was set by setting valve flow rates, and the amount of water in various containers of the machine.
Analog computers present similar challenges: should the water stored in a water integrator be regarded as program or data?

 Safety Turtle Alarm System
The Integrator Base Station looks like a regular Base Station, except for an external plug on the side of the Base Station, into which a Transmitter can be plugged.
When the Transmitter is removed from the Integrator Base, the fl plug should be put on immediately, so that there is no drain on its battery.
If the Horn sounds when you plug in the Receiver/Horn wall adaptor even though the Integrator Base Station is not alarming and the Transmitter is properly inserted, press the case of the Transmitter, turning on its red light.

 Oak Ridge Operations Office
Because integrator units typically encompass large geographic areas that collect releases from multiple source units, final actions for integrator units are deferred until releases from the contributing source units are mitigated.
However, because integrator units also serve as migration pathways to potential receptors, interim actions early in the process may be necessary to ensure adequate protection to human health and the environment while source units are being addressed.
Groundwater and surface water data collected during the individual source unit investigations will ultimately be combined to complete the RI data needs for the surface water and groundwater OUs.

 water quality effects of above-stream fish feeders in North Carolina mountain streams
Designated wild trout waters are not presently stocked with hatchery reared fish, so the fishery relies on natural reproduction and growth to maintain trout populations.
Invertebrate community analysis, a long-term integrator of water quality, yielded bioclassifications of “excellent” for all samples except for two late-summer sections in one stream.
Also, they note that expansion of the feeding program in intensity or spatial extent can be expected to produce water quality deterioration locally or in down-stream areas, and emphasize that the feeding levels at which water quality deterioration should become apparent are not known.

The use of electrical properties in analog computers means that certain calculations on a computer are performed in real time, without calculation delays as on digital computers.
These computers can integrate - essentially calculating the sum of a voltage waveform, usually by means of a capacitor, which accumulates charge over time.
