Diverse mechanisms drive fluoride enrichment in groundwater in two neighboring sites in northern China
Highlights Groundwater samples were from two neighboring typical fluorosis areas. Significant difference of occurrences patterns of fluoride exist in aquifers in the two neighboring sties. Mechanisms diversity in controlling fluoride concentration were interpreted. Cautions should be taken when evaluating fluoride occurrence in groundwater, even in neighboring sites. Excessive amounts of fluoride in drinking groundwater are […]

Fluoride and iodine enrichment in groundwater of North China Plain: Evidences from speciation analysis and geochemical modeling
Highlights Natural high iodine and fluoride concentrations were observed at North China Plain. Groundwater fluoride was gradually increasing along groundwater flowpaths. Under reducing condition of Bay area, groundwater had high iodine concentration. Groundwater pH condition is the main factor controlling fluoride mobilization. Variation of redox potential and pH co-controls iodine mobilization in groundwater. Abstract To […]
