The most recent "comprehensive" book on the subject of ground water
sampling was written by Dr. Barcelona in 1986 and is still being
sold today. It does not, however, include soil water sampling and
analytic techniques. A considerable amount of research has since
been undertaken dealing with ground water sampling equipment and
techniques, making an up-to-date text a valuable commodity. The
scope and detail of this book is much broader and more inclusive
than previous efforts on the subject, and it provides the latest
results of research in the field. The book presents a comprehensive
introduction to ground water monitoring, placing monitoring in
context with respective regulatory programs. It offers a unique,
detailed description of the installation and operation of soil
water samplers (pressure-vacuum and zero tension). It provides the
most comprehensive, step-by-step guidance on monitoring well
installation. The discussion of field instrumentation includes
theory and operation of equipment used for obtaining static water
levels, temperature, redox, pH, dissolved oxygen, specific
conductance, turbidity, and alkalinity. Equipment and techniques
used to obtain ground water samples are described, and several
valuable checklists are included. Quality assurance and control
(QA/QC) are addressed in terms that can be easily comprehended and
utilized. The book also provides an excellent introduction on how
ground water samples are prepared and analyzed in a laboratory. It
is difficult to overestimate the quality and utility of this book.
More than 46 photographs, an abundance of tables and diagrams, and
a well-written style make even the most complex topic
understandable. This extremelypractical book should serve as the
standard for ensuring ground water data reliability and
comparability.
