Development of early warning system of detecting the impact of military activities on groundwater

The main objective of the project is to establish a warning system to monitor and control potential impacts of military training sites on groundwater or drinking water sources. The warning system will include the monitoring of relevant chemical, bacteriological and isotopic parameters to a real-time assessment of the potential impact of military training sites on the groundwater system and thus on drinking water sources. The monitoring will consist of two components: continuous monitoring of selected physico-chemical parameters and detailed monitoring of parameters that could be affected by military activities in the area of the aquifer. Detailed monitoring involves monitoring a wider range of parameters that could be characteristic of emissions from military activities or facilities. Indicator parameters that are primarily characteristic of military activities are identified. Based on the experience gained, the warning system for detecting the impact of military activities on groundwater will be optimised.
