Effects of Road Salt on Connecticut's Groundwater: A Statewide Centennial Perspective.

abstract：:Many attempts have been made worldwide to develop methods to identify the areas most threatened by soil degradation. Some soils in afflicted areas may be irreversibly degraded and thus have very little resilience (the ability to restore themselves). For the purpose of assessing the current state of soil degradation in...
