Grey water footprint as an indicator for diffuse nitrogen pollution: The case of Navarra, Spain
(Elsevier, 2019-09)
Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth, while its application and associated pollution is a worldwide concern. Generally, diffuse source pollution and its impacts on ecosystem health are difficult to monitor and ...
Nitrate pollution in dairy farms and its impact on groundwater quality in a sector of the Pampas plain, Argentina
(Springer, 2020-05)
The aim of this work is to evaluate the nitrate content and its impact on groundwater quality used for supply in dairy farms in a sector of the Pampas Plain in relation to specific point sources of pollution. Samples were ...
Behavior of ionophore antibiotics in aquatic environments in Argentina: The distribution on different scales in water courses and the role of wetlands in depuration
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-12)
We studied for the first time three ionophore anticoccidial drugs: monensin (MON), lasalocid (LAS), and salinomycin (SAL) as emerging pollutants originating from animal and plant husbandry in surface waters (n = 89) in one ...
Monitoring of Atrazine Pollution and its Spatial-Seasonal Variation on Surface Water Sources of an Agricultural River Basin
(Springer, 2021-06)
Surface water sources are greatly impacted in areas with major agricultural land use. The atrazine quantification in surface waters as well as the spatial-temporal patterns of this herbicide was studied to detect pollution ...
Multivariate Chemometric Analysis of a Polluted River of a Megalopolis
(Scientific Research, 2011-09)
A chemometrical study regarding a 10-years water quality monitoring plan at 15 sampling points along a section of the Reconquista River and its stream channels, which embraces 21 campaigns, is presented. The original data ...
GIS-based pollution hazard mapping and assessment framework of shallow lakes: Southeastern Pampean lakes (Argentina) as a case study
(Springer, 2013-02)
The assessment of water vulnerability and pollution hazard traditionally places particular emphasis on the study on groundwaters more than on surface waters. Consequently, a GIS-based Lake Pollution Hazard Index (LPHI) was ...
Accumulation of Pollutants, Self-purification and Impact on Peripheral Urban Areas: A Case Study in Shantytowns in Argentina
(World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology, 2015-05)
This work sets out to debate the tensions involved in the processes of contamination and self-purification in the urban space, particularly in the streams that run through the Buenos Aires metropolitan area. For much of ...
Chemometric modeling for spatiotemporal characterization and self-depuration monitoring of surface water assessing the pollution sources impact of northern Argentina rivers
(Elsevier Science, 2021-03)
In Argentina, both surface and ground water are used for a diverse priority purposes, such as drinking and basic hygiene, but they are also utilized as receivers of different types of industrial and urban and suburban ...
Water footprint and virtual water trade of mize in the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2021-06)
Agriculture is the largest fresh water consuming sector, and maize is the most produced and consumed crop worldwide. The water footprint (WF) methodology quantifies and evaluates the water volumes consumed and polluted by ...
Point source pollution influences water quality of Patagonian streams more than land cover
(Wiley, 2021-10)
Understanding how anthropogenic activities affect water quality is crucial for water resource management and protection. We explored the relationship between land cover variables, point sources of pollution, and water ...
