Agricultural contaminants in Quaternary aquitards : A review of occurrence and fate in North America

The intensity of agriculture has increased significantly during the past 30 years, resulting in increased detection of agricultural contaminants (nutrients, pesticides , salts, trace elements, and pathogens) in groundwater. Till, glaciolacustrine, and loess deposits of Quaterna-ry age compose the most common surficial deposits underlying agricultural areas in North America. Quaternary aquitards...

Emerging organic contaminants in groundwater: A review of sources, fate and occurrence.

Emerging organic contaminants (EOCs) detected in groundwater may have adverse effects on human health and aquatic ecosystems. This paper reviews the existing occurrence data in groundwater for a range of EOCs including pharmaceutical, personal care, 'life-style' and selected industrial compounds. The main sources and pathways for organic EOCs in groundwater are reviewed, with occurrence data fo...
