National Brackish Groundwater Assessment: Sources of Dissolved Solids in Brackish Groundwater
A variety of conditions and mechanisms can cause groundwater to become brackish. An understanding of the sources of dissolved solids that contribute to the formation of brackish groundwater can help determine where brackish aquifers are likely to exist and can provide clues about other characteristics, such as the chemical composition, of brackish aquifers.
