Vegetative Potential to Reduce Total Dissolved Solid Nutrient Ions Generated from Reclaimed Mine Lands in Central Appalachia

One of the major issues in surface coal mine land reclamation is the impact of total dissolved solids (TDS) on water quality. To address this issue, this study assessed whether vegetation could reduce TDS nutrient ion movement from the rooting zone in early reclamation stages when TDS generation is...
