Long-term coal mining activities have significantly disturbed the groundwater system, resulting in aquifer water characterized by high levels of Na⁺, SO4²⁻, and total dissolved solid (TDS), posing environmental health risks. To investigate the disturbance effects of coal mining activities on the groundwater system and ascertain the goaf water (OGW)...
Facility agriculture is a modern intensive cultivation method that is widely seen as the future of global agriculture. However, large-scale emissions of concentrated pollutants during production pose serious threats to groundwater quality. Identifying the sources of pollutants and assessing source-specific risks are critical for developing effectiv...
Nigeria is experiencing a growing threat of groundwater pollution due to insufficient waste management practices. This study aimed to assess the levels of heavy metal contamination in groundwater near the Ikhueniro and Otofure dumpsites in Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria, and to evaluate the associated health risks. Water samples were collected from...
