Zmienność stężeń związków azotu w podziemnych zródłach wody do picia

Concentrations of nitrogen compounds ( NO3,NO2 and NH4 ) have been monitored for 21 years, and the data sets obtained within this time span were subject to statistical analysis. Samples were collected in the water-works of Wielkopolska.Analyzed were a number of variables describing the water sources and thier location. Smoothed time profiles were established for the parameters characterizing the pollution leves in the various from which water for drinking purposes is drawn.In the investigated period,the overall pollution load did not undergo noticeable variations.Most of the variability depended on the depth of the water source.
