TitleShale Network - Groundwater Analyses from Pennsylvania as of 09/2024
Date2024
AbstractThis data set is a subset of the Shale Network database (https://doi.org/10.4211/his-data-shalenetwork) and has been discussed in the following publication "Shaheen, S., Wen, T., Zheng Z., Xue, L., Baka, J., Brantley, S., 2024. Wastewaters co-produced with shale gas drive slight regional salinization of groundwater. Environmental Science & Technology". The Shale Network (http://www.shalenetwork.org/) is a project funded by the National Science Foundation to help scientists and citizens store data for water resources that may be affected by gas exploitation in shale in the U.S.A. Our primary focus currently is the northeastern U.S.A. We want to enable the generation of knowledge from water chemistry and flow data collected in areas of extraction of natural gas. The Shale Network is working with the Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Sciences, Inc. (CUAHSI) to create this database (http://data.cuahsi.org/). Our goal is to find, organize, and upload data for water resources for online publication with attribution.
