Geodetic markers were installed along the main course of the Sélune. Physically marked out in the field, these markers have been located with a high-precision GPS (planimetric and z-precisions are given in the table). Please note that these markers may move slightly with the wetting/drying cycles of mainly clay soils, and their coordinates may be updated if necessary. Geodetic markers can be used as reference points to define a device or a new study area.

The spawning grounds of the sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus are located within the perimeter of the Sélune Observatory. As this species is migratory, its colonisation of the Sélune river and its tributaries will probably be influenced by the removal of the Sélune dams. The spawning grounds are characterised by a depression accompanied by a sediment ejection dome immediately downstream. The stones returned to the dome are lighter, making the nests easily visible and identifiable for up to several weeks after spawning.

Meteorological observations from weather stations interpolated on a 25x25 km grid, on a daily basis from 1979 to the last calendar year completed, for France. Meteorological observations are freely accessible via OGC SensorThings Standard service : https://frost.geosas.fr/agri4cast/v1.0/ Observed properties : - maximum air temperature (°C), - minimum air temperature (°C), - mean air temperature (°C), - mean daily wind speed at 10m (m/s), - vapour pressure (hPa), - sum of precipitation (mm/day), - potential evapotranspiration from a crop canopy (mm/day), - total global radiation (KJ/m2/day), More informations on Agri4cast Resources Portal : https://agri4cast.jrc.ec.europa.eu/DataPortal/Index.aspx

Stations for continuous measurement of hydrological, physical, chemical and sediment parameters have been installed on the Sélune river, as part of the scientific program to monitor the leveling of the Sélune dams. Measurements have been taken on at least an hourly basis since 2014 at the latest. Since 2019, these stations have been part of the Sélune Observatory, which is responsible for monitoring environmental parameters (biotic and abiotic). All stations measure turbidity, water level and conductivity. Some stations measure additional physico-chemical parameters such as pH, dissolved oxygen and chlorophyll concentration. Samples are also taken at upstream (Pont de Virey) and downstream (Pont de Signy) stations, for laboratory chemical analysis. This layer shows the location of flow measurement stations.
