Springs and Natural Drainage Points in Sweden
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
Springs are natural drainage points for groundwater in Quaternary deposits and bedrock.
Description
They permit simple sampling of the water and assessment of quality. The yield of large groundwater reservoirs is usually characterised by slow changes in flow as well as in water quality.
The strongest flowing springs are often found close to the large glaciofluvial deposits. In connection with the hydrogeological mapping of Counties in Sweden, a general inventory of perennial springs is carried out. Data about the springs are obtained from studies of geological and economic maps, from reports and through information from the public.

From the inventory, the yield is estimated, and temperatures and pH of the waters are measured. For certain springs a water sample is taken for a more complete chemical analysis.
