Prediction of nitrate concentration and the impact of land use types on groundwater in the Nansi Lake Basin.

Groundwater faces a pervasive threat from anthropogenic nitrate contamination worldwide, particularly in regions characterized by intensive agricultural practices. This study examines groundwater quality in the Nansi Lake Basin (NSLB), emphasizing nitrate (NO-N) contamination. Utilizing 422 groundwater samples, it investigates hydrochemical dynamics and the impact of land use on groundwater composition.
