Description

Parameter code information for selected chemical constituents, organic compounds, and radionuclides measured for in water samples collected from wells in the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) water-quality aquifer monitoring network, Idaho National Laboratory and vicinity, Idaho.

Usage

parameters

Format

A data frame with 74 records and 7 variables:

parm_cd

USGS 5-digit parameter code

parameter_group_nm

parameter group name, such as "Radiochemical"

parameter_nm

long parameter name, such as "Strontium-90, water, unfiltered, picocuries per liter"

casrn

Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry number, such as "10098-97-2" for Strontium-90
