Title: Nitrate occurrence in groundwater hosted in hard-rock aquifers: estimating background values at a regional scale
Abstract: This study was aimed at assessing the occurrence of nitrate in poorly anthropized areas at a regional scale, as an attempt to estimate the nitrate background in areas far from intense agriculture, farming, industrial activities and urban areas. Nitrate concentrations, together with physical-chemical parameters and major anions and cations, were determined in 49 spring waters flowing out of granitic and metamorphic rocks in Sardinia (Italy). Nitrate in the spring waters was in the range of
