Ammonium Concentration in Irish Waters 2007 - 2009
This dataset provides average ammonium concentrations, expressed in mg/l, recorded between 2007 and 2009 at monitoring locations forming part of the Irish Environmental Protection Agency's Water Framework Directive (WFD) Groundwater Monitoring Network. It reflects nutrient levels in groundwater across national monitoring sites in Ireland during the stated period. The data is published by the Environmental Protection Agency as part of its groundwater quality monitoring activities carried out under Water Framework Directive obligations.Average concentrations from 2007 - 2009 for Ammonium (mg/lP) in samples from monitoring locations on the Irish Environmental Protection Agency Water Framework Directive (WFD) Groundwater Monitoring Network.
