“…The measurement results were reported by the Vienna Standard Mean Ocean Water (V−SMOW). Dual−column instrument (Dionex DX−100, Dionex, Sunnyvale, CA, USA, analytical errors were: Ca 2+ (±0.4 mg/L), Mg 2+ (±0.7 mg/L), Na + (±0.1 mg/L), K + (±0.1 mg/L), Cl − (±0.1 mg/L), SO 4 2− (±0.3 mg/L), HCO 3 − (±0.3 mg/L)) was used to measure the major ion concentration of surface and ground water. Some parameters (pH, water temperature and the total dissolved solids (TDS)) were tested in situ using a portable multiparameter instrument (Manta 2) adjusted with a standard solution.…”
