Assessment of the physicochemical qualities of groundwater and soils around oil-producing communities in Afam, area of Porthacourt, Niger Delta Nigeria

Abstract Results from the assessment of physicochemical qualities of groundwater and soils around Afam in Niger Delta done using, statistical model, geo-accumulation indices (I-geo) and water quality indices showed that pH and Cu did not correlate strongly with any of the parameters analyzed in the...
