Submarine faults strongly impact age and salinity distributions in offshore freshened groundwater systems

Key Points

• Submarine faults influence the distribution of age in freshened groundwater systems, impacting local ecosystems.
• Salinity distributions are strongly affected by these faults in offshore environments, with implications for marine life.
• Analysis focused on how geological features like submarine faults affect groundwater properties in marine contexts.
• Understanding these relationships highlights the importance of monitoring coastal groundwater systems for sustainability.
