20.500.12556/DiRROS-16164 Analysis of the geological control on the spatial distribution of potentially toxic concentrations of As and F- in groundwater on a Pan-European scale The distribution of the high concentrations of arsenic (As) and fluoride (F-) in groundwater on a Pan-European scale could be explained by the geological European context (lithology and structural faults). To test this hypothesis, seventeen countries and eighteen geological survey organizations (GSOs) have participated in the dataset. The methodology has used the HydroGeoToxicity (HGT) and the Baseline Concentration (BLC) index. The results prove that most of the waters considered in this study are in good conditions for drinking water consumption, in terms of As and/or F- content. A low proportion of the analysed samples present HGT≥ 1 levels (4% and 7% for As and F-, respectively). The spatial distribution of the highest As and/or F- concentrations (via BLC values) has been analysed using GIS tools. The highest values are identified associated with fissured hard rock outcrops (crystalline rocks) or Cenozoic sedimentary zones, where basement fractures seems to have an obvious control on the distribution of maximum concentrations of these elements in groundwaters. trace elements arsenic fluoride groundwater geo-hydrochemistry spatial analysis true false true Angleški jezik Ni določen Delo ni kategorizirano 2023-01-30 10:05:37 2023-01-30 10:13:46 2023-01-31 03:36:48 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2022 0 0 Soavtorji: Juan Antonio Luque-Espinar, María Teresa López-Bahut, Juan Grima-Olmedo, Jorge Jiménez-Sánchez, Carlos Ontiveros-Beltranena, José Ángel Díaz Muñoz, Daniel Elster, Ferid Skopljak, Denitza Voutchkova, Birgitte Hansen, Klaus Hinsby, Jörg Schullehner, Eline Malcuit, Laurence Gourcy, Teodóra Szőcs, Nóra Gál, Daði Þorbjörnsson, KatieTedd, Dāvis Borozdins, Henry Debattista, Agnieszka Felter, Jolanta Cabalska, Anna Mikołajczyk, AnaPereira, Jose Sampaio, Diana Perşa, Tanja Petrović Pantic, Nina Rman, Georgina Arnó, Ignasi Herms, Lars Rosenqvist; 20 str. vol. 247 2022 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2022-11-04 556.3 0147-6513 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2022.114161 129841923 1-s2.0-S0147651322010016-main-1.pdf 1-s2.0-S0147651322010016-main-1.pdf 1 DFEA888E6F6A3F6D3560DB5F1BA4F701 cc041e8c9ff82c3095acd866d2e2b941269690c4e7810b2f57d09f64b54b0578 38547bfa-a07e-11ed-b359-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=21534 1-s2.0-S0147651322010016-mmc1.docx 1-s2.0-S0147651322010016-mmc1.docx 1 B5C485024FF7E7664E6D2144E2A676CE d857380ee89a695fb8d0341a5cb661b7a67ad1c4d48d0ec9545683c6251cfec1 4225352c-a07f-11ed-b359-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=21535 Geološki zavod Slovenije 0 0 0
