Groundwater Quality in Kentucky: Cadmium

2005
Abstract: Manganese is a common constituent of Kentucky rocks and soils and, along with iron is one of the most widespread causes of problems in groundwater supplies. Rainwater seeping through soils and bedrock dissolves manganese and carries it in the groundwater system to wells and springs.

Groundwater quality mapping in urban groundwater using GIS

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2008
Konya City, located in the central part of Turkey, has grown and urbanized rapidly. A large amount of the water requirement of Konya City is supplied from groundwater. The quality of this groundwater was determined by taking samples from 177 of the wells within the study area.

Groundwater quality and irrigation

International Journal of Environmental Studies, 1972
Aspects of the quality of groundwater are discussed as they relate to its use in irrigation agriculture. The major criteria of water quality considered are the total concentration of soluble salts and the relative composition of the constituent minerals present, and the effect of these on plant growth and bore equipment is outlined.

Soil as a filter for groundwater quality

Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability, 2012
The filtering function of soil is an important ecosystem service for groundwater and surface water protection. The efficiency of soils as a filter depends on the behaviour of pollutants in the soil and the hydrological transport processes. This paper aims to identify knowledge gaps in processes influencing pollutant behaviour in soils and their ...

Groundwater quality management

Journal AWWA, 1982
Groundwater quality management requires knowledge of the quantitative features of aquifers, present and anticipated demands for water usage from aquifers, natural sources of groundwater pollution, manmade sources of actual or potential groundwater pollution, modeling to determine the influence of water usage and pollution sources on available water ...

Groundwater quality - saltwater intrusions [PDF]

, 2006
Saline groundwater can lead to serious problems for water supply, especially under arid climatic conditions. To define saline groundwater, Grube et al. (2000) proposed a concentration of chloride exceeding 250 mg/l. Since the electrical conductivity of water is strongly related to the salt concentration, the EU-directive on water quality (1998) sets an
