Abstract: | Abstract Groundwaters, which have lost their original oxygen content as a consequence of reducing, i.e. oxygen-consuming microbial processes, are a common phenomenon in nature. But man, too, can change oxygen-containing waters in a variety of ways into oxygen-free groundwaters. The different ways of ‘groundwater reduction’ by man's activities are illustrated by way of selected examples. |
