QLD Hydrochemistry QA QC GAL v02

Abstract

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme. The parent datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.

This dataset contains validated hyrochemical groundwater bore sample data with appended hydrodynamic and hydrostratigraphic data for the Galilee subregion. The dataset consists of a spreadsheet which includes field sampling data (e.g. water temperature, pH, EC, DO, alkalinity, water level and aquifer formations), sampling laboratory data (e..g. major ions, trace metals and isotopes) and desktop interpreted data (e.g. aquifer formations).

Data has been filtered based on it's hydrochemical validity following a 'Charged Balance Equation' (CBE) test where only those samples which balanced to +/- 10% were retained.

Dataset History

The spreadsheet was compiled from data sourced from the following locations:
