Relation of streams, lakes, and wetlands to groundwater flow systems 总被引:14,自引:10,他引:14
Thomas C. Winter 《Hydrogeology Journal》1999,7(1):28-45
Surface-water bodies are integral parts of groundwater flow systems. Groundwater interacts with surface water in nearly all
landscapes, ranging from small streams, lakes, and wetlands in headwater areas to major river valleys and seacoasts. Although
it generally is assumed that topographically high areas are groundwater recharge areas and topographically low areas are groundwater
discharge areas, this is true primarily for regional flow systems. The superposition of local flow systems associated with
surface-water bodies on this regional framework results in complex interactions between groundwater and surface water in all
landscapes, regardless of regional topographic position. Hydrologic processes associated with the surface-water bodies themselves,
such as seasonally high surface-water levels and evaporation and transpiration of groundwater from around the perimeter of
surface-water bodies, are a major cause of the complex and seasonally dynamic groundwater flow fields associated with surface
water. These processes have been documented at research sites in glacial, dune, coastal, mantled karst, and riverine terrains.

Environmental isotopes in determining groundwater flow systems, northern part of Epirus, Greece 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
On the basis of the isotopic composition of water in the northern part of Epirus, Greece, from springs at different altitudes with well-defined recharge areas, the altitude effect on the δ18O value of groundwater is –0.142±0.003ö (100?m)–1 and is uniform over the entire study area. Using the δ18O composition of surface water and groundwaters, the contribution of Ioannina Lake and the channel draining the lake water to the Kalamas River to the recharge of springs and boreholes was confirmed and quantitatively defined. In contrast, the Voidomatis and Vikos Rivers are not sources for recharge of the big springs along their banks. However, water from the Aoos River does replenish the aquifer in the unconsolidated deposits underlying the plain of Konitsa. In addition, limestones of Senonian–Late Eocene ages, dolomites, and limestones of the "Vigles" facies are hydraulically interconnected, and the limestones of the "Pantokrator" facies are hydraulically isolated from the other carbonate formations. 相似文献

Groundwater capture processes under a seasonal variation in natural recharge and discharge 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
"Capture" is the increase in recharge and the decrease in discharge that occurs when pumping is imposed on an aquifer system
that was in a previous state of approximate dynamic equilibrium. Regional groundwater models are usually used to calculate
capture in a two-step procedure. A steady-state solution provides an initial-head configuration, a set of flows through the
boundaries for the modeled region, and the initial basis for the capture calculation. The transient solutions provide the
total change in flows through the boundaries. A difference between the transient and steady-state solutions renders the capture
calculation. When seasonality is a modeling issue, the use of a single initial hydraulic head and a single set of boundary
flows leads to miscalculations of capture. Instead, an initial condition for each season should be used. This approach may
be accomplished by determining steady oscillatory solutions, which vary through the seasons but repeat from year to year.
A regional groundwater model previously developed for a portion of the San Pedro River basin, Arizona, USA, is modified to
illustrate the effect that different initial conditions have on transient solutions and on capture calculations.

The Heretaunga Plains, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand, is underlain by Quaternary fluvial, estuarine-lagoonal, and marine deposits
infilling a subsiding syncline. Within the depositional sequence, river-channel gravels form one of the most important aquifer
systems in New Zealand. An interconnected unconfined–confined aquifer system contains groundwater recharged from the Ngaruroro
River bed at the inland margin of the plain, 20 km from the coast. At the coast, gravel aquifers extend to a depth of 250 m.
In 1994–95, 66 Mm3 of high quality groundwater was abstracted for city and rural water supply, agriculture, industry, and horticulture. Use
of groundwater, particularly for irrigation, has increased in the last 5 years. Concern as to the sustainability of the groundwater
resource led to a research programme (1991–96). This paper presents the results and recommends specific monitoring and research
work to refine the groundwater balance, and define and maintain the sustainable yield of the aquifer system. Three critical
management factors are identified. These are (1) to ensure maintenance of consistent, unimpeded groundwater recharge from
the Ngaruroro River; (2) to specifically monitor groundwater levels and quality at the margins of the aquifer system, where
transmissivity is <5000 m2/d and summer groundwater levels indicate that abstraction exceeds recharge; (3) to review groundwater-quality programs to
ensure that areas where contamination vulnerability is identified as being highest are covered by regular monitoring.

Eco-environmental problems and effective utilization of water resources in the Kashi Plain, western Terim Basin, China 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Since ancient times, water resources, mainly from melting snow in the high mountains, have nourished a large area of an oasis
in the Kashi Plain in the western Terim Basin, China. In the last half-century, however, the rapid growth of population and
the overexploitation of water, soil, and biological resources have led to drought, salinization, and desertification in the
area, and consequently have hindered the development of sustainable agriculture. In this study, groundwater reservoirs with
sustainable water supplies equivalent to 44.65×108 m3/year were identified, which has made it possible to implement several projects in the area to improve the ecological and
agricultural environment. Three strategies are proposed for the integrated development and management of both surface-water
and groundwater resources in the area.

Groundwater mounds and hinge lines are important features related to the interaction of groundwater and lakes. In contrast
to the transient formation of groundwater mounds, numerical simulations indicate that permanent groundwater mounds form between
closely spaced lakes as the natural consequence of adding two net sinks to a groundwater flow system. The location of the
groundwater mound and the position of the hinge lines between the two lakes are intimately related. As the position of the
mound changes there is a corresponding shift in the position of the hinge line. This results in a change in the ratio of groundwater
inflow to outflow (Qi/Qo) for the lake. The response of the lake is an increase or decrease in the lake level. Our simulations indicate that the movement
of the hinge line in a natural system is a consequence of the dynamic interrelationships between recharge, the slope of the
water table upgradient and downgradient of the lake, and the loss of water from the lake by evaporation. The extent of the
seasonal movement of the hinge line will vary from one year to the next depending on local changes in the magnitude of the
hydrologic variables.

The evolution of groundwater rights and groundwater management in New Mexico and the western United States 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Historically, rights in water originated as public property and only later became individualized rights to utilize the public resource, in a manner consistent with the public welfare needs of society, but protected by principles of property law. Five basic regulatory systems for rights in groundwater in the United States have evolved to date. The problems raised by the hydrologic differences between groundwater hydraulically connected to stream systems and groundwater in non-replenished aquifers have been resolved to some extent by a couple of leading court cases. Numerical modeling and other technical methodologies have also evolved to evaluate the scientific issues raised by the different hydrologic conditions, but these are not immune from criticism. The current role of aquifers is evolving into that of storage facilities for recycled water, and their utilization in this manner may be expanded even further in the future. The policy implications of the choices relating to joint management of ground and surface water cannot be overstated. As this paper demonstrates, proactive administration of future groundwater depletions that affect stream systems is essential to the ultimate ability to plan for exploitation, management and utilization of water resources in a rational way that coordinates present and future demand with the reality of scarcity of supply. The examples utilized in this paper demonstrate the need for capacity building, not just to develop good measurement techniques, or to train talented lawyers and judges to write good laws, but also for practical professional water managers to keep the process on a rational course, avoiding limitless exploitation of the resource as well as conservative protectionism that forever precludes its use.

A lumped-parameter model of groundwater balance is proposed that permits an estimate of discharge variability in comparison
with the variability of recharge, by taking into account the influence of aquifer parameters. Recharge–discharge relationships
are analysed with the model for cases of deterministic and stochastic recharge time-series variations. The model is applied
to study the temporal variability of groundwater discharge in a river valley in the territory of Tajikistan, an independent
republic in Central Asia.

The 1995 Water Consumer Protection Act of Tucson, Arizona, USA (hereafter known as the Act) was passed following complaints
from Tucson Water customers receiving treated Central Arizona Project (CAP) water. Consequences of the Act demonstrate the
uncertainties and difficulties that arise when the public is asked to vote on a highly technical issue. The recharge requirements
of the Act neglect hydrogeological uncertainties because of confusion between "infiltration" and "recharge." Thus, the Act
implies that infiltration in stream channels along the Central Wellfield will promote recharge in the Central Wellfield. In
fact, permeability differences between channel alluvium and underlying basin-fill deposits may lead to subjacent outflow.
Additionally, even if recharge of Colorado River water occurs in the Central Wellfield, groundwater will become gradually
salinized. The Act's restrictions on the use of CAP water affect the four regulatory mechanisms in Arizona's 1980 Groundwater
Code as they relate to the Tucson Active Management Area: (a) supply augmentation; (b) requirements for groundwater withdrawals
and permitting; (c) Management Plan requirements, particularly mandatory conservation and water-quality issues; and (d) the
requirement that all new subdivisions use renewable water supplies in lieu of groundwater. Political fallout includes disruption
of normal governmental activities because of the demands in implementing the Act.

Spain is a relatively large European country (ca. 500,000 km2) with extensive semiarid areas in which there exists a large number of good aquifers. In some areas, these aquifers are intensively
developed and are the most important sources of fresh water. Nevertheless, groundwater development and protection has rarely
been duly considered by the Spanish Water Administration, despite the pressure to remedy this situation by various groups
of experts, some of them members of the Water Administration. The Spanish Committee of the International Association of Hydrogeologists
(IAH) has been very active during the last decade in promoting activities to spread groundwater science, technology, and management
in Spain and outside, mostly in Latin America, and in trying to orient water policy toward issues of groundwater. These activities
include mainly the organization of technical and scientific meetings on current topics such as groundwater in the new Water
Act, overexploitation, groundwater in water-resources planning, groundwater pollution, natural-recharge estimation and others.
The impact of these activities on the recent water policy of Spain seems significant, and the experience gained may be applicable
to other countries.

Hydrogeologic data of 455 water wells comprising geologic logs, water qualities, and aquifer test results are analyzed to
determine hydrogeological characteristics, water quality, and sustainable yield of the groundwater resources of Cheju volcanic
island. The groundwater of the island occurs in unconsolidated pyroclastic deposits and clinkers interbedded in highly jointed
basaltic and andesitic rocks as high-level, basal, and parabasal groundwater under unconfined conditions. The total storage
of groundwater is estimated at about 44 billion m3. The average transmissivity and specific yield of the aquifer are at about 0.34 m2 s–1(29300 m2 day–1) and 0.12, respectively. The average annual precipitation is about 3.39 billion m3, of which 1.49 billion m3– equivalent to 44.0% of the total annual precipitation – is recharged into aquifers, with 0.638 billion m3 year–1 of runoff and 1.26 billion m3 year–1 of evapotranspiration. Based on a groundwater budget analysis, the sustainable yield is estimated at about 0.62 billion m3 year–1, equivalent to 41.6% of annual recharge. A low-permeability marine sedimentary formation (Sehwari formation), composed of
loosely cemented sandy silt, was recently found to be situated at 120±68 m below mean sea level. If the said marine sediment
is distributed as a basal formation of the freshwater zone of the island, most of its groundwater will be of parabasal type.
So the marine sediment is one of the most important hydrogeological boundaries and groundwater occurrences in the area.

The water balance for the Basin of the Valley of Mexico and implications for future water consumption 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The Basin of the Valley of Mexico is a closed basin of 9600?km2, where average annual precipitation (1980–85) is 746?mm (226.7?m3/s). Calculated actual evapotranspiration is 72–79% of the precipitation. The surrounding mountain ranges of the Sierra de Las Cruces, Sierra Nevada, and Sierra Chichinautzin are the main recharge areas for the enclosed Basin, in decreasing order. Calculated recharge rate is a maximum of 19?m3/s in the Metropolitan Zone, whereas a recent estimate of the groundwater exploitation rate indicates that 51.35?m3/s is being withdrawn from the Basin aquifer systems, resulting in a deficit of more than 30?m3/s. Taking into account infiltration processes by leaking water-supply systems, the calculated deficit is reduced to 20.5?m3/s. Overexploitation of the natural aquifer systems is also indicated by an average annual decline of 1?m of the potentiometric levels of the shallow groundwater systems. Possible solutions include: (1) the use of surface runoff water (unused amount in 1995?:?17.6?m3/s) for consumption purposes, which is currently pumped to areas outside the Basin; (2) an increased number and capacity of treatment plants; (3) the renovation of the leaky water-distribution network; (4) the reinjection of treated water; and (5) possible exploitation of deep regional aquifer systems. 相似文献

The total amount of groundwater resources in the middle and upper Odra River basin is 5200×103 m3/d, or about 7.7% of the disposable groundwater resources of Poland. The average modulus of groundwater resources is about
1.4 L/s/km2. Of the 180 'Major Groundwater Basins' (MGWB) in Poland, 43 are partly or totally located within the study area. The MGWB
in southwestern Poland have an average modulus of groundwater resources about 2.28 L/s/km2 and thus have abundant water resources in comparison to MGWB from other parts of the country.
Several types of mineral waters occur in the middle and upper Odra River basin. These waters are concentrated especially in
the Sudety Mountains. Carbon-dioxide waters, with yields of 414 m3/h, are the most widespread of Sudetic mineral waters.
The fresh waters of the crystalline basement have a low mineralization, commonly less than 100 mg/L; they are a HCO3–Ca–Mg or SO4–Ca–Mg type of water. Various hydrochemical compositions characterize the groundwater in sedimentary rocks. The shallow aquifers
are under risk of atmospheric pollution and anthropogenic effects. To prevent the degradation of groundwater resources in
the middle and upper Odra River basin, Critical Protection Areas have been designated within the MGWB.

Assessment of recharge to groundwater systems in the arid southwestern part of Northern Territory, Australia, using chlorine-36 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Richard Cresswell John Wischusen Gerry Jacobson Keith Fifield 《Hydrogeology Journal》1999,7(4):393-404
The sustainability of community water supplies drawn from shallow aquifers in the arid southwest of the Northern Territory
has been evaluated using the radioactive isotope chlorine-36 (36Cl). These aquifers include fractured sandstones of the Ngalia Basin, fractured metamorphic rocks and Cainozoic sands and
gravels. 36Cl/Cl ratios for these shallow, regional groundwaters exhibit a bimodal distribution with peaks at 205 (±7) and 170 (±7)×10–15. The higher ratio probably represents modern (Holocene) recharge, diluted with windblown salts from local playa lakes, and
occurs mostly around the margin of the basin. The lower ratio corresponds to a 36Cl "age", or mean residence time, of 80–100 ka, implying that the last major recharge occurred during the last interglacial
interval (Oxygen Isotope Stage 5). These values are mainly observed in the interior of the Ngalia Basin. Lower values of the
36Cl/Cl ratio measured near playa lakes are affected by addition of chloride from remobilised salts. Finite carbon-14 (14C) data for the groundwaters are at variance with the 36Cl results, but a depth profile suggests low recharge, allowing diffusion of recent atmospheric carbon to the water table.
The 36Cl results have important implications for groundwater management in this region, with substantial recharge only occurring
during favourable, wet, interglacial climatic regimes; most community water supplies are dependent on these "old" waters.

Simulation of seawater intrusion into the Khan Yunis area of the Gaza Strip coastal aquifer 总被引:1,自引:3,他引:1
The Gaza Strip coastal aquifer is under severe hydrological stress due to over-exploitation. Excessive pumping during the
past decades in the Gaza region has caused a significant lowering of groundwater levels, altering in some regions the normal
transport of salts into the sea and reversing the gradient of groundwater flow. The sharp increase in chloride concentrations
in groundwater indicates intrusion of seawater and/or brines from the western part of the aquifer near the sea.
Simulations of salt-water intrusion were carried out using a two-dimensional density-dependent flow and transport model SUTRA
(Voss 1984). This model was applied to the Khan Yunis section of the Gaza Strip aquifer. Simulations were done under an assumption
that pumping rates increase according to the rate of population growth, or about 3.8% a year. Model parameters were estimated
using available field observations. Numerical simulations show that the rate of seawater intrusion during 1997–2006 is expected
to be 20–45 m/yr. The results lead to a better understanding of aquifer salinization due to seawater intrusion and give some
estimate of the rate of deterioration of groundwater.

Origin and distribution of saline groundwaters in the upper Miocene aquifer system, coastal Rhodope area, northeastern Greece 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:3
This paper describes the origins and distribution of saline groundwaters in the coastal area of Rhodope, Greece. The aquifer
system includes two aquifers within coarse-grained alluvial sediments in the coastal part of the study area. Two major water-quality
groups occur in the study area, namely Ca2+-rich saline groundwater and Ca2+-poor, almost fresh groundwater. The main process controlling the groundwater chemistry is the exchange of calcium and sodium
between the aquifer matrix and intruding seawater. The natural salt water in the study area is probably residual water that
infiltrated the aquifer system during repeated marine transgressions in late Pleistocene time. Seawater intrusion into the
coastal aquifer system occurs as a result of overpumping in two seawater wedges separated vertically by a low-permeability
layer. The rate of intrusion averages 0.8 m/d and is less than expected due to a decline of the aquifer's permeability at
the interface with the seawater. The application of several hydrochemical techniques (Piper and Durov diagrams; Na+/Cl–, Ca2+/Cl–, Mg2+/Cl–, and Br–/Cl– molar ratios; Ca2+/Mg2+ weight ratio; and chloride concentrations), combined with field observations, may lead to a better explanation of the origin
of the saline groundwater.

The hydrochemical characteristics and evolution of groundwater and surface water in the Heihe River Basin, northwest China 总被引:8,自引:3,他引:5
A combination of isotopic and chemical indicators has been used to characterize rainfall, surface water and groundwater in the Heihe River Basin, China. Surface- vs. groundwater chemistry data enabled geographical zones and chemical types to be differentiated. The dissolution of halite, Glauber’s salt, gypsum, dolomite and calcite determine Na+, Cl?, Mg2+, Ca2+, $ {\text{SO}}^{{2 - }}_{4} A combination of isotopic and chemical indicators has been used to characterize rainfall, surface water and groundwater in
the Heihe River Basin, China. Surface- vs. groundwater chemistry data enabled geographical zones and chemical types to be
differentiated. The dissolution of halite, Glauber’s salt, gypsum, dolomite and calcite determine Na+, Cl−, Mg2+, Ca2+, and chemistry, but other processes such as evaporation, ion exchange, and deposition also influence the water composition. The
majority of deep confined groundwaters are tritium-free and less mineralized than in the shallow aquifer. Radiocarbon values
in the deeper groundwaters range from 18.8 to 38.9 pmc, and 80 pmc probably represents the upper limit of initial 14C activity; this yields ages of approximately 5,960–11,971 years BP, which is about 3,000 years older than those calculated by models in previous work. The shallow aquifer exhibits fairly high
and variable tritium activities (4–75 TU), evidence of recent recharge and low residence time (<60 years), which is in line
with estimates from previous work. Isotopic signatures indicate formation of deeper groundwaters in a colder and wetter climate
during the late Pleistocene and Holocene. The results suggested that significant changes are urgently needed in water-use
strategy to achieve sustainable development.
Résumé Une combinaison de plusieurs indicateurs isotopiques et chimiques a été utilisée dans le but de caractériser les précipitations, les eaux de surface et les eaux souterraines dans le Bassin de la Rivière Heihe, en Chine. La confrontation des chimies des eaux souterraines et de surface a permis de différentier plusieurs secteurs géographiques et faciès chimiques. Les compositions chimiques en Na+, Cl−, Mg2+, Ca2+, et sont déterminées par la dissolution de la halite, du sel de Glauber, du gypse, de la dolomite et de la calcite, mais d’autres processus peuvent également avoir une influence, comme l’évaporation, les échanges de bases et la sédimentation. La majorité des eaux souterraines captives profondes ne contiennent pas de tritium, et sont moins minéralisées que dans l’aquifère superficiel. Les valeurs de carbone 14 dans l’aquifère le plus profond sont comprises entre 18.8 et 38.9 pcm, pour une valeur maximum probable d’activité initiale de 80 pcm; les ages estimés correspondants sont compris entre 5,960 et 11,971 ans, soit environ 3,000 ans de plus que ceux calculés auparavant par les modèles. L’aquifère superficiel présente des activités tritium plut?t élevées et variables (4 à 75 UT), démontrant l’existence d’une alimentation récente et d’un temps de résidence faible (<60 ans), ce qui concorde avec les études antérieures. Les signatures isotopiques indiquent une alimentation des eaux souterraines les plus profondes au cours d’épisodes climatiques plus froids et plus humides qu’actuellement, à la fin du Pléistocène et à l’Holocène. Les résultats suggèrent que des changements significatifs dans la planification des usages de l’eau sont nécessaires et urgents dans des perspectives d’exploitation durable.
Resumen Se ha utilizado una combinación de indicadores isotópicos y químicos para caracterizar la precipitación, el agua superficial y el agua subterránea en la Cuenca del Río Heihe, China. Los datos químicos de aguas superficiales frente a las subterráneas no permiten diferenciar zonas geográficas y tipos químicos. La disolución de halita, sal de Glauber, yeso, dolomita y calcita determina la química de Na+, Cl−, Mg2+, Ca2+, y , pero otros procesos, como evaporación, intercambio de iones y precipitación influyen también en la composición del agua. La mayoría de las aguas subterráneas profundas confinadas no tienen Tritio y están menos mineralizados que el acuífero superficial. Los valores de radiocarbono en las aguas subterráneas más profundas oscilan entre 18.8 y 38.9 pmc, y el valor de 80 pmc representa probablemente el límite superior de la actividad inicial de 14C; proporcionando edades de aproximadamente 5,960–11,971 a?os BP, que son unos 3,000 a?os más antiguas de las calculadas mediante modelización en trabajos previos. El acuífero superficial tiene actividades de tritio bastante más altas y variables (4–75 UT), evidenciando una recarga reciente y unos tiempos de residencia bajos (<60 a?os), lo cual está en la línea de lo estimado en trabajos previos. Los datos isotópicos apuntan a la formación de aguas subterráneas más profundas en un clima más frío y húmedo durante el Pleistoceno superior y el Holoceno. Los resultados sugieren que se necesita hacer cambios significativos en la estrategia de uso del agua para alcanzar un desarrollo sostenible.相似文献
