Sources of Nitrate in Ground Water Aquifers of the Semiarid Region of Tanzania
Nitrate isotopic values are often used as a tool to identify sources of nitrate in order to effectively manage ground water quality. In this study, the concentrations of NO3−, NO2−, and NH4+ from 50 boreholes and shallow wells in the Singida and Manyoni Districts were analyzed during the dry and wet...
