Identification

Abstract

This dataset presents the piezometric surface elevation in meter above sea level of the bedrock aquifers in the south-central area of the Maritimes Carboniferous Basin. The study area extends from 65°30' à 63°30'. The data were obtained from database of New Brunswick (219 values), Nova Scotia (225 values) and Prince Edward Island (153 values), and from the fieldwork (351 data). The data taken before 1998 were not used in this study.
