This analysis evaluates groundwater salinity in Karachi's coastal aquifers due to seawater intrusion, revealing detrimental quality implications.

Groundwater samples show EC levels between 1828-5190 μS/cm, indicating significant salinity risks.
High TDS readings from 1550 to 4920 mg/L exceed WHO guidelines, making the water unsuitable for domestic use.
Sodium and chloride predominance in groundwater suggests severe contamination from seawater intrusion.
Natural causes of salinization are linked to rising sea levels, affecting groundwater quality and usability.

Naseem et al. (2025) studied this question.
