title: The subterranean waters of tenerife-I Origin and chemical characteristics.
abstract: A systematic study has been made of the chemical characteristics of the subterranean waters of Tenerife from all sources, including galleries, wells, and springs. All the constituents and characteristics of agricultural interest have been considered. A marked dependence was observed between the characteristics of the water and the situation of the sources, and a study was made of the principal types of geological formation which determine the presence of subterranean accumulations of water at different levels of the island.
