Abstract
To evaluate the potential for groundwater contamination by viruses, it is essential to understand the processes controlling virus adsorption to soil. Recent laboratory studies have indicated that the degree of viral adsorption is highly type and strain dependent. The purpose of this study was to statistically re-examine earlier data by grouping studied variables into a number of broad categories.
