Goranina   (2014) ( Open Chemistry )   About the study Location of the study:   Lithuania Problem statement:       To track the groundwater using Sodium Fluorescein. Procedure adopted:       Sodium fluorescein is used as a tracer for 2 systems to determine                                                               the groundwater flow direction.   Methodology   Sodium fluorescein (C 20 H 10 Na 2 O 5 ) is used . •       The monitoring well network consists of two subsystems. •       System I in the north-western part of the site consists of 8 wells: 7 observation (S1-1, S1-2, S1-3, S1-4, S1-5, S1-6, S1-7), and one injection. •       This well set examines the semi-confined aquifer 10 to 19 m deep. •       Sandy clay occurs at 4.7–6.7 m. •       The aquifer of medium-grained sand is below. Borehole S1-7 is installed 4 m deep in an aquifer of technogen
