Distribution characteristics and source analysis of sulfate in the main rivers of Heze city, China

Throughout the last few decades, sulfate concentrations in streamwater have received considerable attention due to their dominant role in anthropogenic acidification of surface waters. In order to determine the cycle of riverine sulfate, affected by natural weathering and anthropogenic activities, t...
