Monitoring the quality of river and river water

Monitoring the quality of river and river water The theme on physicochemical monitoring of rivers and rivers presents data from all stations in networks monitoring water quality in rivers in Quebec and the St. Lawrence River. The purpose of networks for monitoring general water quality is to characterize, using current physicochemical and bacteriological parameters, the quality of water in spatial terms and to monitor the evolution of this quality over time. For the regular monitoring of the general quality of river and river water, the parameters measured are: total phosphorus, total nitrogen, nitrites and nitrates, ammonia nitrogen, chlorophyll a, pheopigments, faecal coliforms, faecal coliforms, turbidity, suspended matter, pH, conductivity, dissolved organic carbon and temperature. This data is used to calculate the Bacteriological and Physicochemical Water Quality Index (IQBP), a water quality classification index. The data set on physicochemical monitoring of rivers and rivers also includes the drainage areas of some of the stations. The attribute table provides a compilation of land use by category for the last year available at the time the data was generated. Follow-up is carried out annually.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).** 2024-09-27 Government and Municipalities of Québec bilel.chalghaf@environnement.gouv.qc.ca Form DescriptorsNature and EnvironmentScience and Technology Physicochemical and bacteriological monitoring of rivers and riversCSV https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/bf2ca474-b331-4d35-ad09-351ca8f89b27/resource/7e0dfa92-7480-425a-8dab-5eb52a4d9b94/download/physicochimie_bacteriologie_csv.zip Physicochemical and bacteriological monitoring of rivers and riversESRI REST https://services3.arcgis.com/0lL78GhXbg1Po7WO/arcgis/rest/services/Suivi_physicochimique_et_bact%C3%A9riologique_des_rivi%C3%A8res_et_du_fleuve/FeatureServer Physicochemical and bacteriological monitoring of rivers and riversESRI REST https://services3.arcgis.com/0lL78GhXbg1Po7WO/arcgis/rest/services/Suivi_physicochimique_et_bact%C3%A9riologique_des_rivi%C3%A8res_et_du_fleuve/FeatureServer Physicochemical and bacteriological monitoring of rivers and riversFGDB/GDB https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/bf2ca474-b331-4d35-ad09-351ca8f89b27/resource/f3862069-ff3a-41a0-9aa4-2248ee6fdf8a/download/physicochimie_bacteriologie_gdb.zip Physicochemical and bacteriological monitoring of rivers and riversGEOJSON https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/bf2ca474-b331-4d35-ad09-351ca8f89b27/resource/c74bd840-f9d4-4170-ac27-34764106ae34/download/physicochimie_bacteriologie_json.zip Physicochemical and bacteriological monitoring of rivers and riversGPKG https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/bf2ca474-b331-4d35-ad09-351ca8f89b27/resource/1cc79987-4285-4cbc-aed0-1256edd81ca3/download/physicochimie_bacteriologie_gpkg.zip Atlas of waterHTML https://arcg.is/KH5uH Original metadata (https://www.donneesquebec.ca)HTML https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/fr/dataset/bf2ca474-b331-4d35-ad09-351ca8f89b27 Station metadataPDF https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/bf2ca474-b331-4d35-ad09-351ca8f89b27/resource/cdc52e3c-0056-4d39-bbf7-f5804699cb5f/download/physicochimie_bacteriologie_stations.pdf Drainage area metadataPDF https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/bf2ca474-b331-4d35-ad09-351ca8f89b27/resource/82aa90bd-7e6a-4343-98d6-3c267ee13471/download/physicochimie_bacteriologie_ad.pdf
