Abstract

Integrated groundwater monitoring system in Gdañsk and Sopot.A b s t r a c t. In the period 2009–2014, a groundwater monitoring system was organized in the area of Gdańsk and Sopot, integrating various types of observation networks, administrative units and respective groundwater circulation zones of the Gdańsk aquifer system. Three stages of research (diagnostic, operational, and research monitoring)resulted in a complete diagnosis of chemical and quantitative status of groundwater. The research was carried out on the basis of the existing observation network, groundwater intakes, and hydrogeological test boreholes drilled specially for this purpose. Such an approach to investigations provided many detailed data about changes in soil and water environment. Zones of past groundwater pollution were identified. The work has become the basis for activities that aimed at reducing the risks and improving the water management.
