Ground-Water Quality in Wheat Crop Areas
Map of Study Location
- Objectives:
Determine the quality of shallow ground-water underlying
wheat crop areas.
- Approach:
Install and collect samples from 30 wells
randomly located in wheat crop areas east of Denver.
- Timing:
Site selection and well installation occurred
in 2003. Sampling for targeted physical and chemical data occurred
in Summer 2003.
- Targeted Physical and Chemical Data:
Physical parameters, nutrients, pesticides,
organic carbon, trace elements,
major ions, ground-water age.
