Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling a wind power plant (1) or a wind park. A power control module (55) for the power output into a power grid is, according to the method, supplemented with an additional power device (6).  This additional power device is operated in such a manner that, according to the voltage in the grid (9), a current reserve is established and is applied in the form of a correction value to the power control module (55). The invention makes use of the fact that components used for transmitting are, in their nominal output, designed for the worst instance of a low grid voltage.  The power reserves arising from grid voltages above a tolerance value can, according to the invention, be used for transmission. This makes it possible to achieve a considerable increase in the transmission output without additional constructional effort. The invention also relates to wind power plant or wind park operated according to the method.

Abstract: A gamma monitoring apparatus and method for measuring water equivalent of snowpack over a selected ground area. A detector unit is installed at a given height above the area. The detector unit has a collimator and a scintillator coupled to a photomultiplier tube for detecting gamma rays emitted by naturally radioactive elements present in soil under the snowpack and absorbed by the snowpack in a field of view defined by the collimator. Pulses in a signal produced by the photomultiplier tube are measured and those exceeding threshold energy levels in a number of energy windows are registered as gamma counts. The water equivalent of the snowpack is periodically computed as functions of the gamma counts in the energy windows and the height of the detector unit with respect to ground level. The data representing the computed water equivalent are stored and controllably transmitted for reporting. Soil moisture content is also determinable.
