Description

The dataset presents information on the spacial distribution of organic contaminants from different areas of L' Albufera Natural Park. It includes target analysis of pesticides and a non-target analysis of organic contaminants including pharmaceuticals, industrial compounds, etc in surface water samples considering two sampling campaigns (spring and autumn), and in sediment samples (only in spring). Additionally, an ecological risk assessment for pesticides is conducted to determine potential toxicity in the surface water samples.

Steps to reproduce

The data were collected for fifty-one sampling points during spring (suface water and sediments) and autumn (only suface water). The sampling dates was selected according to the representative months of the cultivation period: at the beginning of the cultivation (May-June) and during harvest (September-October). Target and non-target analyses were conducted to investigate pesticides and other compounds in the grab water samples and sediment samples to try to correlate the presence of these organic contaminants with land uses.
