Abstract

Abstract An experimental site representative of Newfoundland soil and climate conditions has been instrumented and investigated for possible groundwater contamination due to the disposal of liquid waste from farming operations. The data obtained from field observations and laboratory analysis for the 1992-93 period have been interpreted using non-parametric statistical methods. Background concentration levels and individual well signatures have been defined and used for subsequent detection of changes in chemical concentrations of selected contaminants. Present farming disposal practices as applied on this site, typical of climate and soil conditions in Newfoundland, Canada, seem to have no significant impact on groundwater quality.
