CRC Press Calcium and Magnesium in Groundwater - Hydrogeology

While hydrogeochemical studies often focus on water quality deterioration caused by nitrate, nitrite, iron, or manganese, the role of groundwater as a primary source of essential nutrients is frequently overlooked. This specialized volume, Calcium and Magnesium in Groundwater: Occurrence and Significance for Human Health: 21, addresses this gap in scientific literature. Part of the Selected Papers on Hydrogeology series, this book provides a focused look at the distribution and behavior of calcium and magnesium within groundwater systems. It offers a necessary perspective for researchers and professionals who find that most recent papers concentrate on contaminants rather than these vital water components. By examining the occurrence and significance of these minerals, this work contributes to a more complete understanding of groundwater chemistry and its direct impact on human health.
