Groundwater quality with special reference to fluoride concentration in the granitic and basaltic contact zone of southern India.

ABSTRACT: The main focus of this data article is to evaluate the groundwater and surface water quality from a granitic-basaltic watershed in a semi-arid region. The obtained values are evaluated concerning the drinking water quality standards proposed by WHO, specifically for the semi-arid regions. All the physio-chemical parameters (fourteen) required for the calculation of water-quality indices and source appreciation were derived. Person correlation analysis for the measured parameters is presented with high to poor correlation groups in the study region. A brief description of the methods and calculation of water quality indices is mentioned. The data can be re-used to calculate to evaluate the suitability for drinking and agriculture needs of the basin; besides, it can be helpful to the authori
