Water samples were collected in two headwater stream catchments (Nissouri Creek, Cedar Creek) of the Thames River 2017-2019 to help characterize the contribution of groundwater seepage to water quality. Groundwater wells and surface streams were sampled over the course of the study. The...

As part of a study to characterize the habitat of Canada’s only known population of Hine’s emerald dragonfly (HED), a species listed as endangered since 2011, groundwater was collected and analyzed from the eastern Minesing Wetlands near Barrie, Ontario. The water quality analyses included...

In 2012 samples of raw influent and final effluent wastewater from five municipal wastewater treatment plants at various locations in Canada (sites to remain anonymous, designated in this data file as MH, OX, Q, TB, U). Also, leachate was collected from three landfill sites (sites to remain...

In 2016-2019 water samples were collected at Lake of the Woods as part of a research program to determine sources and fate of nutrients in nearshore areas. These included samples of lake water, groundwater, streams, and septic wastewater. The samples were analyzed for nutrients (total and...

Groundwater wells were installed in the Turkey Lakes Watershed basin in the early 1980’s. These test wells were installed in eight sub-basins of the watershed and range in depth from 0.5 to 9.7 metres. They are located on a variety of terrain throughout. The water chemistry has been sampled at...

The bedrock geologic units designate units of the same types of rock which composed the solid rock exposed at ground surface (as outcrop) or which underlies unconsolidated surficial sediments. This dataset represents a general description of the stratigraphy and geology, including geologic unit...

Groundwater samples have been collected in the hydrogeological unit, for various types of analysis. The dataset is not used to represent a particular phenomenon or observation but rather as a utility dataset to add context and reference to groundwater analysis. It represents a general description...

Level below which soil or rock is saturated with water, in the well and at the time the level has been measured, expressed in m above the sea level. Groundwater levels measured are interpolated / extrapolated to obtain groundwater level on every cell of the hydrogeological unit raster. Surfer and...

A hydrogeological unit is defined as any soil or rock unit or zone that by virtue of its hydraulic properties has a distinct influence on the storage or movement of groundwater. It is considered the main dataset from the GGP point of view. Hydrogeological units are ranked into five levels (from...
