The maximum water depth is 41.8 metres (137 ft) and at 100% capacity the dam wall impounds enough water from the Barron River to create a lake approximately 75% the size of Sydney Harbour with a capacity of 438,919 megalitres (15,500.3 × 10 ^ 6 cu ft) of water at 670 metres (2,200 ft) AHD. The surface area of the Lake Tinaroo is 3,500 hectares ...
The Tinaroo Hydro Power Station is an electricity power station in Tinaroo, Tablelands Region, Queensland, Australia. It is located at the spillway of Tinaroo Dam . It has been designed to take advantage of water being released for irrigation, and water released when the dam is full. [ 1 ]

The Barron River forms most of the western boundary of the locality flowing into Lake Tinaroo (created by the Tinaroo Dam) which then forms the northern boundary of the locality. Peterson Creek, also flowing into Lake Tinaroo, forms the north-east boundary of the locality, while Gwynne Creek forms the south-western boundary of the locality ...
It is bounded to the west by Lake Tinaroo, to the north by Tinaroo Range, to the north-east and east by Lamb Range, to the south-east by Main Range, and to the south-west by Surprise Creek, a tributary of Lake Tinaroo. [3] It is within the world-heritage-listed Wet Tropics of Queensland. [4] Danbulla has the following mountains, from north to ...
A Lag-1 hydrograph is a graph of discharge which can be accomplished without a time axis (Koehler 2022). This technique allows data properties such as Q, dQ/dt, and d 2 Q/dt 2, and trends of increasing, decreasing or no change flow to be readily seen and understood on a single graph. Flow pulse reference lines can easily be added and interpreted.
It closed on 1 September 1958, when the Tinaroo Dam began to fill, inundating the town. [7] However, being on higher ground, the school building was not flooded and became a private residence at 85 Backshall Road (now in Barrine , 17°14′39″S 145°34′59″E / 17.24420°S 145.58306°E / -17.24420; 145.58306 ( Kulara State ...
It has very deep, rich basaltic soils and the main industry is agriculture. The principal river flowing across the plateau is the Barron River, which was dammed to form the irrigation reservoir named Lake Tinaroo. Unlike many other rural areas, the Tablelands is experiencing a significant growth in population. [2]
