Submarine Groundwater Discharge Estimation from Kikuchi River Basin to the Ariake Bay, Japan
Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) affects environmental conditions in semi-enclosed sea areas. Semi-enclosed areas often experience eutrophication caused by excess nutrient transport from agricultural areas. However, it is often unclear how much the nutrients that are transported through the groundwater discharge. Therefore, it is necessary to quantify groundwater discharge to the sea. For thi
