Abstract
Summary
The agents controlling contamination of Quaternary aquifer groundwater within Tisza floodplain, and water in Tisza river bed near Solotvyno town in the Ukrainian Transcarpatia are considered in the presended paper. The removal of NaCl by groundwater of Tortonian karst aquifer beyond the boundary of the Solotvino deposit, global warming of climate and excessive deforestation on the slopes of salt deposit is able substantially to raise the water salinity in the Tisza during low-water periods of year only. Global warming of climate and deforestation on the slopes of the Carpathians reduce the flow of the Tisza, which also leads to an increase of the salinity of river water during low-water periods.
