recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Environmental Monitoring and Assessment"

DOI: 10.1007/s10661-022-09891-z

Abstract: Estuaries have very complex mechanisms because they are influenced by seawater intrusion, which causes enrichment of contaminants in the maximum turbidity area. Magnetic susceptibility measurements have been used for monitoring a wide variety of environments.… read more here.
