Groundwater Quality on the Adriatic Karst Island of Mljet (Croatia) and Its Implications on Water Supply by Staša Borović, Josip Terzić, Marco Pola

“…Low proportion of seawater is an essential factor of cost minimisation in desalination by the installed reverse osmosis (RO) plants. Daily monitoring of total dissolved solids in the feed water was introduced in May 2016, and its results were analysed in the context of precipitation—a sole source of island aquifer recharge. …”
