The Plagioclase dissolution was found to be responsible for the observed high concentrations of Na and Ca in the majority of volcanic aquifers. Ultrabasic rocks enrich groundwater with magnesium while intense hydrothermal activity and extensive alteration zones, which exist locally as a result of a recent volcanic activity, are associated with the existence of sulphate type groundwater and acidic pH in some areas. Seawater intrusion was found to be associated with high Cl- concentrations in three sampling locations. Based on sodium adsorption ratio, percent sodium, and the US salinity diagrams, the vast majority of groundwater samples were evaluated as suitable for irrigation purposes. </p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>30</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>422</first_page><last_page>430</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">839</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000839</doi><timestamp>1714037034</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/839</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
