- Summary
- In any area or region where the quality of ground water is of concern, ground water data are likely to exist in many places and in many forms, and making such data available to the analyst or decision maker is a difficult task. The analysis and assessment of ground water data are also difficult. Because of the complexity of ground water systems, and the variability of the spatial and temporal characteristics of the data as well as of the collection and laboratory procedures, standard analytical techniques are not always valid or useful. In this guidebook, we have presented a methodology for identifying and integrating available data in a useful form, and for analyzing these data using statistical, modeling, and graphical techniques. The guidebook is aimed primarily at the local agency, with minimum manpower and equipment available, which is responsible for making evaluations based on a large but possibly imperfect collection of data. 17 refs.
