Water fluoride concentrations (mgF/L) per LSOA in England (2009 - 2020)

This dataset is a record of annual water
fluoride concentrations in Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs) in England from
2009 to 2020. We obtained
information on the fluoride concentrations for each water supply zone through
requests made under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004, to water
companies in England. The Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations SI 2016/614
require that water companies take a minimum of 1-8 annual samples per water
supply zone, per year (dependent on population size) of water fluoride concentrations,
as part of routine water quality monitoring. This dataset was
created by merging the supplied information on annual fluoride concentrations
in each water supply zone, with the 2011
LSOA population-weighted centroids (Office for National Statistics).

the methods used to create this dataset will be found in the Research paper
accompanying this dataset

本数据集记录了2009年至2020年间英格兰下级输出区域（LSOAs）年度水氟化物浓度的数据。通过依据2004年环境信息法规向英格兰水公司提出的请求，我们获得了每个供水区域的水氟化物浓度信息。根据《供水（水质）法规》（SI 2016/614），水公司需每年在每个供水区域至少采集1至8个水氟化物浓度的年度样本（样本数量取决于人口规模），作为常规水质监测的一部分。本数据集通过合并每个供水区域年度水氟化物浓度信息与2011年LSOA人口加权质心数据（国家统计局）而创建。关于创建本数据集所采用方法的详细信息，请参阅随数据集附带的科研论文。
