1.  2-1. Sample Types & Considering Factors for Collection  Sample Types:  According to the physical conditions ; solid, liquid, or gas samples  According to the representativeness; bulk, partial, or mixed samples  According to the conventional names; Rock, soil, stream water, groundwater, coal, plant, food etc.  Considering Factors:  The essential requisite for the sample is the representativeness of the object of sampling.  Then, consider 1)Purpose of sampling 2)Budget for the analysis 3)Characteristics (Types) of the samples

2.  2-2. Collection & Pretreatment of Water Samples  Water samples?:  Surface water (Streams, lakes, springs, etc.)  Groundwater  Meteoric water (rain, snow, fog, etc)  Others  Considering factors of water sampling;  Variable properties responding to a number of surrounding conditions such as T, P, time, biota, geology, etc.  Should consider 1)Water type 2)Parameters measured in the field 3)Required pretreatment 4)Geological & Hydrological conditions 5)Temporal & spatial variation 6)Others

3.  Methods:  Scooping  Grab sampling  Bailor / Bomb  Pumping

4.  Pretreatments:  Filtration; Removal of SS & (microbes), with 0.1, 0.2 or 0.45  m pore membrane  Acidification; Prohibiting pptn of the DS, with HNO3  Sterilization; Killing all the microbes, with HgCl2  Refrigeration; Supress microbial activity at 4C
