Discussion Major findings. The purpose of this study was to assess the association between pool surface microbial levels and bulk water microbial levels. This study was also conducted to identify pool staff and swimmer behaviors that influence pool water quality. A Xxxxxxx correlation and Xxxxxxxx correlation was conducted to test the first hypothesis that surface microbial levels are correlated with bulk water microbial levels. However, the tests showed some differences in statistically significant correlations (Tables 2.3 & 2.4). The differences indicate non-normality in the data, a result of the small sample size. This shows that there is limited support that some of the correlations indicate a true association. The correlations would need to be assessed using a larger sample size in order to present a clearer picture. One correlation that was seen in the Xxxxxxx test, but not the Xxxxxxxx test was between log10 bulk water Staphylococcus spp. and log10 bulk water Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Tables 2.3 & 2.4). Sub-hypothesis 1a of this study is that Staphylococcus spp. and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are correlated. Since the tests were different, there is limited support for this hypothesis. However, a study by Martins et al. (1995) found a statistically significant correlation between bulk water samples of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa spp. using 1,345 pool samples (p<0.0001, Xxxxxxxx correlation). Correlations between these bacteria suggest a common source of contamination. Both bacteria can be found on human skin and their presence in the water indicates swimmers as a source of pool contamination. Although, the Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx correlations showed some differences, four statistically significant correlations (p<0.05) were the same in both tests (Tables 2.3 & 2.4). In comparing surface and bulk water samples, log10 Staphylococcus spp. in bulk water samples was correlated with log10 Staphylococcus spp. from surface water samples and log10 heterotrophic plate count bacteria on low-nutrient agar (HPC-R2A) from surface water samples (p<0.05, Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx correlations). This supports the first hypothesis of the present study that surface microbial levels are correlated with bulk water microbial levels. This suggests that the microbial quality of the pool surface may be an indicator for overall pool water quality. This also suggests that the bacteria in these different compartments of the pool come from the same source and the levels are influenced by the same factors. Sub-hypothesis ...
