Dissolved organic matter (DOM) composition in salt lakes is critical for water quality and
aquatic ecology, and the salinization of salt lakes affects the DOM composition. To the best …

Coastal aquifers are affected by seawater intrusion (SWI), which causes their salinization,
and yield submarine groundwater discharge (SGD), which feeds marine ecosystems …

Abstract The Salar de Atacama is used as a case study to analyse and quantify coupled
natural (evaporation and recharge) and anthropogenic processes (pumping of lithium-rich …

Laguna Tuyajto is a small, shallow saline water lake in the Andean Altiplano of northern
Chile. In the eastern side it is fed by springs that discharge groundwater of the nearby …

Salt flat brines are a major source of minerals and especially lithium. Moreover, valuable
wetlands with delicate ecologies are also commonly present at the margins of salt flats …

Natural free convection is a process of great importance in disciplines from hydrology to
meteorology, oceanography, planetary sciences, and economic geology, and for …

Abstract The Salar de Atacama (SdA) is the largest Li reserve globally. The origin of Li,
together with the rest of solutes, has been object of debate. Thus, rock weathering at low …

The storage of carbon dioxide (CO 2) in deep saline aquifers has been suggested as a
promising method for stabilizing the atmospheric concentration of CO 2. An accurate …

Inland groundwater level variation widely exists but is usually neglected when conducting
research on flow and solute transport in coastal aquifers. A variable-saturation and variable …

Inland saline lakes are widely distributed and commonly exist in arid and semi-arid regions.
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) in saline lakes plays an important role in the global carbon …
