اظهر المزيد [+] اقل [-]Concentration data exhibited large spatial variability in salinity levels across districts with Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) levels ranging from a low of 400 to as high as 29,000 ppm. Groundwater chemistry, ionic relationships, hydro-chemical diagrams and groundwater quality indices (GQI) were used to delineate saltwater intrusion (SWI) hotspots. Results of this study can help assess the extent and intensity of SWI and improve existing policy planning and management tools for coastal aquifers. Despite widespread studies of SWI, its investigation in karst aquifers remains limited, particularly in view of the challenges in understanding, characterization, as well as modeling of karst aquifers.
