Résumé
Decoupling natural and anthropogenic impacts on the subsurface environment can be difficult, particularly when it has been subject to a wide range of influences over time and space. In this work we show how the use of hydrogeochemical plotting tools, time-series analysis of key contaminants of concern, and targeted isotopic analysis can be used to better understand the contamination sources/processes in a complex environment - a Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) located on coastal acid sulfate soils (ASS). Analysis of soil profiles for potential oxidisable sulfur, acid neutralising capacity (ANC), and pH
