| ABSTRACT: | Nitrate trends in the Coastal Plain aquifer of Israel were determined by use of a “stable sample” of nitrate concentrations in fixed 713 wells throughout the aquifer for the years 1973, 1981 and 1990. Differences in laboratory analytical techniques were accounted for. The trends were also analyzed in various regions of the aquifer. For purposes of comparison, results for 1990 were also calculated with data of an “unstable sample” consisting of all 1216 sampled wells in the aquifer. The mean nitrate concentration was found to be significantly lower than in the “stable sample” indicating the importance of using “stable samples” for correct trend analysis. |
