Short summary
Tritium concentration analyses were performed on groundwater samples collected in wells in the south part of Treviso city, to correlated the presence of tritium with the young age of the water recharge. The results show strong differences in recharge by recent rainwater which reflect the variation in permeability of the sediments. The aquifer analyzed was vulnerable to prolonged drought periods which could produce a worsening of water quality, consequently limiting water availability.
