Mobility of trace elements in a coastal contaminated site under groundwater salinization dynamics.

ABSTRACT: Water pollution is a significant issue resulting from past long-term actions. The remediation projects carried out under law constraints for industrial plants, which have been the major contributors to environmental and water pollution, are currently providing a significant amount of data about contaminated soil, surface waters, and groundwater. Most of such plants worldwide are in coastal zones. Based on a significant amount of chemical and environmental data for a coastal contaminated site subject to variable groundwater salinization, this study aimed to understand the mobility of some trace elements because of coastal zone dynamics. Data concerned 688 groundwater samples, including As, Hg, Cd, Cr_tot, Cu, Ni, Pb, V, Se, Zn, pH, electrical conductivity, chlorides, total organic
