Climate change and extreme weather events (such as droughts, heatwaves, rainstorms and
floods) pose serious challenges for water management, in terms of both water resources …

Nitrogen pollution has been shown to have strong potential threaten to the human drinking
water and agriculture. However, identifying the nitrogen and spatial-temporal variation and …

Excessive accumulation of phosphorus in soil profiles has become the main source of
phosphorus in groundwater due to the application of phosphorus fertilizers in intensive …

The contribution of geogenic phosphorus (P) in groundwater to surface water eutrophication
has become a major concern for aquatic environment protection, but the differences in …

In addition to the anthropogenic sources for elevated concentrations of phosphorus (P) in
groundwater systems, the importance of geogenic enrichment of P warrants attention. To …

Increasing numbers of studies have reported groundwater with naturally high phosphorous
(P) and arsenic (As) concentrations, which can potentially threaten the environment and …

Drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) are designed to remove physical, chemical, and
biological contaminants. However, until recently, the role of DWTPs in minimizing the cycling …

Over recent decades, increased agricultural activities have significantly modified nitrogen
(N) and water cycles, leading to a worsening of the environmental quality and widespread …

The causes of the differential enrichment of dissolved phosphorus (P) in the shallow and
deep aquifers remain elusive. In this study, groundwater and aquifer sediments were …

Little is known about biological processes controlling inorganic phosphate (PO4) in
groundwater ecosystems. Here we present analyses of groundwater samples from the …
