Nutrient budgets in semi-arid estuaries, with ephemeral freshwater inflows and limited
nutrient sources, are likely incomplete if contributions from submarine groundwater …

226Ra (half‐life 1,600 yr) and 228Ra (half‐life 5.75 yr) were used as tracers to determine
seasonal changes in groundwater input to the Pettaquamscutt estuary from June 1999 to …

Increased nutrient loading to estuaries has led to eutrophication, degraded water quality,
and ecological transformations. Quantifying nutrient loads in systems with significant …

The natural flux of groundwater into coastal water bodies has recently been shown to
