Summary[edit]
DescriptionSau reservoir Spain (cropped).jpg |
English: The Sau Reservoir, also known as Pantà de Sau in Catalan, is a large reservoir located in the province of Barcelona, in the Spanish autonomous region of Catalunya. The reservoir was built in the 1960s by damming the Ter River and is a vital source of water and hydroelectric power for the region.
As a result of the severe drought ongoing in Europe, the reservoir is currently at about 10% of its capacity, the lowest level in decades. Operations are ongoing to remove a significant quantity of fish from the reservoir in order to preserve the quality of its water and guarantee a source of drinking water for the region. The low water level in the Sar Reservoir is visible in this image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 13 March 2023. |
