Contrasting Nitrate Sources and Transport Pathways in a Connected Karst Surface Water and Groundwater System
Nitrate contamination threatens surface water and groundwater quality in karst regions, posing risks to drinking water safety and aquatic ecosystems. Strong surface water–groundwater connectivity in karst recharge areas can accelerate contaminant transport through fractures and conduits. In this study, 166 samples, com...
