Hydrogeochemical Characterization and Irrigation Quality Assessment of Shallow Groundwater in the Central-Western Guanzhong Basin, China
TL;DR: Salinity hazard, sodium percentage, sodium adsorption ratio, residual sodium carbonate, magnesium hazard, permeability index, Kelley’s ratio, potential salinity, synthetic harmful coefficient, and irrigation coefficient were assessed to evaluate the irrigation quality of groundwater.

Groundwater quality assessment using water quality index (WQI) under GIS framework
TL;DR: In this article, the authors have made an attempt to understand the suitability of groundwater for human consumption by analyzing parameters like pH, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, alkalinity, total hardness, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, bicarbonate, sulfate, chloride, fluoride, nitrate, copper, manganese, silver, zinc, iron and nickel were analyzed to estimate the groundwater quality.

Evaluation of drinking and irrigation suitability of groundwater with special emphasizing the health risk posed by nitrate contamination using nitrate pollution index (NPI) and human health risk assessment (HHRA)
TL;DR: In this paper, the characterization of groundwater for drinking and irrigation uses in South India has been studied and evaluated. But, the authors did not consider the water quality of ground water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global diagnosis of nitrate pollution in groundwater and review of removal technologies
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors collected data from the literature regarding the presence of nitrates in groundwater, and, simultaneously, they reviewed the main alternatives available to remove NO3- from groundwater sources.

A graphic procedure in the geochemical interpretation of water-analyses
TL;DR: This paper outlines certain fundamental principles in a graphic procedure which appears to be an effective tool in segregating analytical data for critical study with respect to sources of the dissolved constituents in waters, modifications in the character of a water as it passes through an area, and related geochemical problems.

Mechanisms Controlling World Water Chemistry
TL;DR: On the basis of analytical chemical data for numerous rain, river, lake, and ocean samples, the three major mechanisms controlling world surface water chemistry can be defined as atmospheric precipitation, rock dominance, and the evaporation-crystallization process.
