ground water samples from different upazilas of sunamganj district have been analyzed for drinking and irrigation purposes. correlation coefficients among different parameters were determined. an attempt has been made to develop linear regression equations to predict the concentration of water quality constituents having significant correlation coefficients with electrical conductivity (ec). ca...

background: nitrate and nitrite compounds are considered as groundwater’s contamination factors, which in recent years, their densities have been growing in these resources. this study was conducted aiming to measure nitrate and nitrite density in drinking water wells in villages around the industrial estate, city of orumieh, and to compare them to the approved standards. methods: this was a de...

Ground water nitrate concentrations on Nantucket Island, Massachusetts, were analyzed to assess the effects of land use on ground water quality. Exploratory data analysis was applied to historic ground water nitrate concentrations to determine spatial and temporal trends. Maximum likelihood Tobit and logistic regression analyses of explanatory variables that characterize land use within a 1000-...

The Arc Hydro ground water data model is a geographic data model for representing spatial and temporal ground water information within a geographic information system (GIS). The data model is a standardized representation of ground water systems within a spatial database that provides a public domain template for GIS users to store, document, and analyze commonly used spatial and temporal groun...

This paper presents an approach to examine potential relationships between land use-derived solutes and baseflow surface water quality using regional ground water and solute transport models linked to GIS. We demonstrate this approach by estimating the chloride fluxes from road salt through ground water into surface water in a regional coastal watershed in Michigan. The geologically parameteriz...

The groundwater quality research is one of the important and its pollution control was included insome research literatures. Ground water quality has spatial and temporal variation so classical statisticscould not account these variations at the regional scale researches. This study usedgeo-statisticalmethodsto optimize an interpolation method in order to estimate the spatial distribution of pH...

background: iran is located within the dry and semi dry regions, thus almost 90% of the required water is secured via the use of groundwater. owing to the increasing pollution of water resources, this study was performed to evaluate water quality pollution indices for heavy metals (as, zn, pb and cu) contamination monitoring in toyserkan plain during spring and summer in 2012. methods: a total ...

Changes in agricultural management can minimize NO3-N leaching, but then the time needed to improve ground water quality is uncertain. A study was conducted in two first-order watersheds (30 and 34 ha) in Iowa's Loess Hills. Both were managed in continuous corn (Zea mays L.) from 1964 through 1995 with similar N fertilizer applications (average 178 kg ha(-1) yr(-1)), except one received applica...
