Schedule 3—Subcategories of information
(regulations 7.03 and 7.10)

Part 1—Definitions
  In this Schedule:
Australian water access entitlement means a perpetual or ongoing entitlement, by or under a law of a State, to exclusive access to a share of the water resources of a water resource plan area or other water management area.
Australian water allocation means the specific volume of water allocated to an Australian water access entitlement in a given water accounting period.
dewpoint temperature means the temperature to which air must be cooled, at constant pressure and constant moisture content, to reach saturation.
downward longwave exposure means the total amount of terrestrial electromagnetic energy that falls on a specified unit horizontal surface.
downward longwave irradiance means the longwave irradiance emitted from the sky that falls on a specified unit horizontal surface.
dry‑bulb air temperature means the temperature of air, measured by a thermometer freely exposed to the air but shielded from radiation and moisture.
electrical conductivity, in relation to water, means the capacity of the water to transmit a flow of electricity, and is a common measure of the salinity of the water.
exposure means the measure of the energy received per unit area.
global solar exposure means the total amount of electromagnetic energy emitted from the sun that falls on a specified unit horizontal surface.
global solar irradiance means the irradiance emitted from the sun that falls on a specified unit horizontal surface.
irradiance means the measure of the rate of electromagnetic energy received per unit area.
major storage means any water storage that has a storage capacity of 1 GL or more.
minor storage means any water storage in which water is stored for taking and that meets the following criteria:
 (a) it is not a major storage;
 (b) it has a storage capacity of 100 ML or more;
 (c) it is not used primarily for the precipitation of ash;
 (d) it is not a mine tailings dam;
 (e) it is not managed by an urban infrastructure operator primarily for the purposes of flood management or pollution abatement.
net exposure means the net global solar exposure plus the net longwave exposure.
net global solar exposure means the global solar exposure less the reflected global solar exposure.
net global solar irradiance means the global solar irradiance less the reflected global solar irradiance.
net irradiance means the net global solar irradiance plus the net longwave irradiance.
net longwave exposure means the downward longwave exposure less the upward longwave exposure.
net longwave irradiance means the downward longwave irradiance less the upward longwave exposure.
reflected global solar exposure means the total amount of electromagnetic energy emitted from the sun that is reflected from the ground and irradiates a specified unit
