Iodine in Drinking Waters [PDF]
Journal of Hygiene, 1928 Drinking water has long been supposed to play an important part in the causation of endemic goitre. Estimations by v. Fellenberg (1923, 1924) in Switzerland and by Mcclendon and Hathaway (1924) in the United States have shown that, in these countries, drinking water in goitre areas contains less iodine than in goitre-free areas.

New experimental approaches enabling the continuous monitoring of gas species in hydrothermal fluids
Frontiers in Water, 2023 Hot thermal fluids flow through the Earth's crust and carry valuable information about the deep subsurface. The monitoring of natural tracers transported in geothermal fluids, such as gases or ions, are relevant to better understand the geological ...

Human arsenic exposure risk via crop consumption and global trade from groundwater-irrigated areas
Environmental Research Letters, 2021 While drinking water is known to create significant health risk in arsenic hazard areas, the role of exposure to arsenic through food intake is less well understood, including the impact of food trade. Using the best available datasets on crop production,
