Identification

Abstract

This dataset presents the piezometry of the aquifers formations included in the sands and gravels of Portneuf area, extending from 71ˮ30 to 72ˮ30. The dataset was created from 226 groundwater levels measured during two field campaigns (summer 1995 and 1996) and 177 other measures from different database. The water table elevation values vary between St. Lawrence River elevations up to 210 m.
