BGS researches all aspects of groundwater quality, from assessing natural chemical variations and their controls and effects to the effects of pollution from agriculture, industry and urban sources. The scope of our pollution research ranges from long-established and legacy contaminants (for example, nitrates; trace metals; microorganisms) to new and emerging contaminants (like pharmaceutical compounds).</groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55//p>/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55/n/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55/n/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55/n<figure  class=/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55/"img-wrap/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55/"><a href=/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55/"https:/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55///groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55//www.bgs.ac.uk/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55//groundwater/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55//wp-content/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55//uploads/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55//sites/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55//4/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55//2025/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55//07/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55//P922954.jpg/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55/" data-toggle=/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55/"lightbox/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55/" data-footer=/groundwater/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/55/"&lt;p&gt;Collecting a water chemistry sample from a piezometer on Wybunbury Moss in Cheshire, England.
