Evaluation of groundwater quality for drinking and irrigation purposes using physicochemical parameters at Salilah area, Madinah Munawarah District, Saudi Arabia
Evaluation of groundwater quality for drinking and irrigation purposes was carried out at the Salilah village, Madinah Munawarah District, KSA. Groundwater samples were collected from 20 wells in February 2018. The abundance of major cations is Na+ and Ca2+, and anions is Cl− followed by HCO3−. The...
