Enteric virus concentrations and chemical properties of wastewater, water, sediment and shellfish samples collected along the Conwy River and estuary, North Wales (2016-2017)

This dataset contains pH, turbidity, conductivity and viral concentration information in river and estuarine water, wastewater, sediment and mussel samples collected in the Conwy River and estuary. The aim of data collection was to monitor wastewater contamination in the freshwater-marine continuum. Samples were collected by trained members of staff from Bangor University at four weekly between March 2016 and August 2017. Treated and untreated wastewater samples were collected at four wastewater treatment plants along the Conwy River. Surface water samples were collected at four sites, sediments at three sites and mussels at two sites. The VIRAQUA project was funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) under the Environmental Microbiology and Human Health (EMHH) Programme (NE/M010996/1)

本数据集收录了康威河及其河口区域采集的河水、河口海水、废水、沉积物和牡蛎样本的pH值、浊度、电导率和病毒浓度信息。数据收集的目的是对淡水-海洋连续体中的废水污染进行监测。样本由来自班戈大学的经过培训的工作人员于2016年3月至2017年8月期间的每周四次进行采集。处理前后的废水样本在康威河沿岸的四座废水处理厂采集。水面水样在四个地点采集，沉积物在三个地点采集，牡蛎在两个地点采集。VIRAQUA项目由自然环境研究委员会（NERC）在环境微生物学和人类健康（EMHH）项目（NE/M010996/1）下资助。
