FLUORIDE CONCENTRATION IN COASTAL AND ESTUARINE WATERS OF GEORGIA
Abstract
More than 150 coastal and estuarine water samples and 48 samples of interstitial water from salt marsh sediments were analyzed for fluoride using a specific‐ion electrode method. Surface waters show that fluoride: chlorinity ratios do not attain normal ocean values until a chlorinity of 10–11‰ is reached. Interstitial waters are enriched in fluoride relative to surface waters of the same chlorinity. A mechanism for enrichment involving uptake by salt marsh plants, with subsequent release in the sediments due to bacteriological breakdown, is proposed.

Claims other papers make about this one
Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“Natural environmental fluoride concentrations vary widely depending on the local geology, and range from 30–80 μM in oceans, and from 10 μM - 400 μM in ground and surface waters(4, 6).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
