Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrate contamination of groundwater in the western Po Plain (Italy): the effects of groundwater and surface water interactions
TL;DR: In this paper, the physical and chemical effects of interactions between groundwater and surface water (particularly in streams) on nitrate contamination were investigated, with a particular emphasis on processes and environments that influence increases or decreases in nitrate concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of physical and biological processes in aquifers and their importance on groundwater vulnerability to nitrate pollution
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the features and role of dilution and denitrification occurring in aquifers in terms of the attenuation of nitrate in groundwater, and evaluate their effectiveness through nitrogen isotopic fractionation analysis in a plain area in NW Italy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intrinsic groundwater vulnerability assessment: issues, comparison of different methodologies and correlation with nitrate concentrations in NW Italy
TL;DR: In this paper, three methods that are commonly used in groundwater vulnerability assessments due to their easy application (namely DRASTIC, GOD and TOT) were utilised in four areas of the Piedmont region (NW Italy).
Book ChapterDOI
Areal and Vertical Distribution of Nitrate Concentration in Piedmont Plain Aquifers (North-Western Italy)
TL;DR: In this article, the distribution of nitrate in Piedmont plain, both in shallow and in deep aquifers, was analyzed to highlight the variation of the nitrate levels from year 2000 to 2012.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a study on groundwater chemistry is performed in an area of SW Guatemala (Samala River basin), where water supply to population is groundwater-based and no systematic studies on its groundwater resources have been performed so far.
