Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrate response of a lowland catchment: On the relation between stream concentration and travel time distribution dynamics
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied a mass transfer function approach to simulate catchment-scale nitrate transport, which was extended with time-varying travel time distributions and removal of nitrate along flow paths by denitrification to be applicable for lowland catchments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Presence and fate of veterinary antibiotics in age-dated groundwater in areas with intensive livestock farming
TL;DR: Investigating the presence of antibiotics in groundwater in two regions with the most intensive livestock farming in the Netherlands provides proof that antibiotics are present in groundwater below agricultural areas in the Dutch due to the spreading of animal manure.
Journal ArticleDOI
The groundwater contribution to surface water contamination in a region with intensive agricultural land use (Noord-Brabant, The Netherlands).
TL;DR: A conceptual model stating that stream water quality at different discharges is the result of different mixing ratios of groundwater from different depths is proposed, used for a regional study of the groundwater contribution to surface water contamination in the Dutch province of Noord-Brabant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Denitrification coupled to pyrite oxidation and changes in groundwater quality in a shallow sandy aquifer
Yan-Chun Zhang,Caroline P. Slomp,Hans Peter Broers,Hilde F. Passier,Philippe Van Cappellen,Philippe Van Cappellen +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on denitrification in a sandy aquifer using geochemical analyses of both sediment and groundwater, combined with groundwater age dating (3H/3He).
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct measurements of the tile drain and groundwater flow route contributions to surface water contamination: from field-scale concentration patterns in groundwater to catchment-scale surface water quality
TL;DR: Considering their crucial role in water and solute transport, enhanced monitoring and modeling of tile drainage are important for adequate water quality management.
