Title:

Meta Analysis of PFAS in New Hampshire Groundwater

This project was set forth in conjunction with Sanborn Head & Associates, as well as in cooperation with the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (NHDES) to further expand on the knowledge of Per-and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in its occurrence, fate, and transportation in groundwater. Thanks to the NHDES, over 120,000 PFAS measurements could be utilized to perform a meta-analysis to find statistical significance among PFAS in New Hampshire's groundwater. A meta-analysis is a quantitative statistical analysis of several separate but similar experiments or studies used to test the pooled data for statistical significance. In other words, the goal of this project is to understand the distribution of PFAS data on a large scale, find statistical significance in differences between short and long chain PFAS, and to find trends among New Hampshire regulated PFAS.
