RESULTS ESTIMATED |
- Spatial delimitation of the areas from western Romania, having excessive arsenic concentrations in the underground waters ; representation on a tridimensional digital map of the concentration distribution;
- Theoretic model regarding the arsenic mobilization and transfer from soil and rocks towards underground waters, applied to the concrete situation of the investigated areas;
- Obtaining decisive situations regarding the risk induced by the arsenic presence in drinking water on human health;
- Maps regarding the content of total As as well as As(III) and As (V) species;
- Correlating data about As contamination with data regarding: geology(natural fund), climatic and hydrologic information;
- General and unspecific assessment of the possible risks on the health state of the population exposed to arsenic from the studied areas;
- Papers.
