From: Transcriptome profiling and environmental linkage to salinity across Salicornia europaea vegetation
Site | Location | Type of the salinity source | Geographical coordinates | Cause of salinity |
---|---|---|---|---|
S1 | Ciechocinek | natural | N52°53, E18°47° | The periodic flooding by brine (NaCl) transported by a ditch from the graduation towers (previously taken from the natural spring being in contact with Zechstein rock-salt deposits). |
S2 | Inowrocław | anthropogenic | N52°48, E18°15° | Salt infiltration (mainly CaCl2 and NaCl) from the improperly sealed waste ponds. There are solid and semi-liquid solid industrial waste produced during the manufacturing of the soda ash by the Solvay method. |
