Origin of salinity in a multilayered aquifer with high salinization vulnerability
AbstractThe Kaluvelly watershed is a coastal area (Tamil Nadu, India) where water abstraction has resulted in a dramatic fall in the level of the water table and a piezometric depression in the most exploited aquifer, the Vanur aquifer. In addition, intensification/mechanization of agriculture may have affected the quality of recharge water. An initial

Current regulatory tools are not well suited to address freshwater salinization in urban areas, and the conditions under which bottom-up management is likely to emerge remain unclear.

Simulation of water and salts dynamics in Bouhajla (Central Tunisia): exceptional rainfall effect
Arid and semi-arid regions face the risk of soils and aquifers salinization. Rainy events are rare which is characteristic of these regions. They play a significant role in the leaching of salts from topsoil to deeper layers, which increases the risk of ...

Interactive effects of salinity and ozonated water on yield components of cucumber
A greenhouse experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of salt stress and ozone on yield and yield components of cucumber. The treatments were defined by a two-factorial design of three irrigation water salinity levels (2, 4 and 6 dS/m) and ...

State of the art review on climate change impacts on natural ecosystems and adaptation [PDF]
Climate change has become unavoidable and the Netherlands has started to adapt the water systems and coastal defense to reduce vulnerability to the effects of climate change.

Background. Salinization of soils can be accompanied by both an increase in the pH level to alkaline values, and a decrease to strongly acidic ones. At the same time, plants experience complex salt and acid-base stress.

Groundwater Salinization in France
AbstractThe state, sources, and vectors of salinity in French aquifers are assessed through a GIS-based approach and a literature review of geochemical studies. Seawater intrusion is dominant in the insular context, but the most impacted water bodies are inland aquifers affected by WRI with Permian to Tertiary evaporites, mixing with primary and ...

Nitrate sources and dynamics in a salinized river and estuary : a δ15N-NO₃⁻ and δ18O-NO₃⁻ isotope approach [PDF]
To trace NO3- sources and assess NO3- dynamics in salinized rivers and estuaries, three rivers (Haihe River: HH River, Chaobaixin River: CB River and Jiyun River: JY River) and two estuaries (HH Estuary and CJ Estuary) along the Bohai Bay (China) have ...

Nonlinear Dielectric Decrement of Electrolyte Solutions: an Effective Medium Approach [PDF]
Hypothesis. The dielectric constant of an electrolyte solution, which determines electrostatic interactions between colloids and interfaces, depends nonlinearly on the salinity and also on the type of salt. The linear decrement at dilute solutions is due to the reduced polarizability in the hydration shell around an ion.
