One of the major causes of groundwater pollution in Hamadan–Bahar aquifer in western Iran is a non-point source pollution
resulting from agricultural activities. Withdrawal of over 88% of drinking water from groundwater resources, adds urgency
to the studies leading to a better management of water supplies in this region. In this study, the DRASTIC model was used
to construct groundwater vulnerability maps based on the “intrinsic” (natural conditions) and “specific” (including management)
concepts. As DRASTIC has drawbacks to simulate specific contaminants, we conditioned the rates on measured nitrate data and
optimized the weights of the specific model to obtain a nitrate vulnerability map for the region. The performance of the conditioned
DRASTIC model improved significantly (R
2 = 0.52) over the intrinsic (R
2 = 0.12) and specific (R
2 = 0.19) models in predicting the groundwater nitrate concentration. Our study suggests that a locally conditioned DRASTIC
model is an effective tool for predicting the region’s vulnerability to nitrate pollution. In addition, comparison of groundwater
tables between two periods 30 years apart indicated a drawdown of around 50 m in the central plain of the Hamadan–Bahar region.
Our interpretation of the vulnerability maps for the two periods showed a polluted zone developing in the central valley requiring
careful evaluation and monitoring. 相似文献

Vulnerability of groundwater in Quaternary aquifers to organic contaminants: a case study in Wuhan City,China 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

More than 30 organic contaminants were detected in shallow groundwaters at Wuhan, the largest city in central China. Seriously
contaminated groundwaters were from densely populated, industrial and commercial areas. Abnormal concentrations were found
in groundwater from Hankou, downtown Wuhan: trimethylbenzene up to 29 μg/L, tetramethylbenzene up to 866 μg/L, and trichloroethene
up to 9.5 μg/L. Benzene, Toluene, Ethylene and Xylene (BTEX) contamination of groundwater is serious and widespread at Wuhan,
ranging between 0.14 and 25.0 μg/L. Considering the hydrogeological conditions of most Chinese cities, DRAMIC, a modified
version of the widely used DRASTIC model, was proposed by the authors for assessing vulnerability of groundwater to contamination.
The factors D, R, A and I in DRAMIC model are the same as in DRASTIC. The factor topography is ignored. The factor soil media is substituted by a new factor aquifer thickness (M) and the factor hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer by a new factor impact of contaminant (C). The equation for determining the DRAMIC Index is: DRAMIC = 5D
R + 3R
R + 4A
R + 2M
R + 5I
R + 1C
R. The calculated DRAMIC Index can be used to identify areas that are more likely to be susceptible to groundwater contamination
relative to each other. The higher the DRAMIC Index is, the greater the groundwater pollution potential. Applying DRAMIC,
a GIS-based vulnerability map for Wuhan city was prepared. Interestingly, places such as downtown Hankou, where enhanced concentrations
of BTEX have been detected, correspond quite well with those with higher DRAMIC ratings. 相似文献

In agricultural areas, fertilizer application is the main source of nitrate contamination of groundwater. To develop fertilizer
management strategies to combat this problem, arable land in Hokkaido, Japan was evaluated using geographic information system
techniques for intrinsic groundwater vulnerability to nitrate contamination. The DRASTIC method was modified to adapt it to
the Hokkaido environment and used for the evaluation. Of the seven original DRASTIC factors, the depth to water (D), net recharge
(R), soil media (S), topography (T), and impact of vadose zone media (I) were selected and used to explain the vertical movement
of contaminants to the aquifer. The rating for the net recharge factor was also modified to a dilution factor for contaminants,
rather than as a transporter. The frequency of wells with nitrate concentrations exceeding the Japanese environmental standard
(10 mg/L) was reasonably explained by vulnerability evaluation results (GLM: logit-link, quasi-binomial distribution, Y = [1 + exp(6.873765 − 0.045988 × X)]−1, p < 0.001). However, in the paddy fields and pastures, vulnerability did not exhibit a clear relationship with the frequency
of wells exceeding the standard. This suggests that the modified DRASTIC method is applicable for fertilizer application management
in upland fields. In addition, under the ongoing policy for acreage allotment for rice production, this method will be useful
for deciding the arrangement of arable land and crop rotation taking into consideration the potential risk of fertilizer-induced
nitrate contamination of groundwater. 相似文献

Aquifer systems present intrinsic properties such as vulnerability, which is identified as the potential risk of groundwater pollution by contaminants generated by human activity. When there are surface sources of pollution, usually there is a direct relationship between high vulnerability and decreased water quality. Nevertheless, this relationship is not observed in all aquifers and so the causative circumstances of inconsistencies between aquifer vulnerability and water quality have been investigated. This work addresses the vulnerability assessment of the Chapala Marsh area, Mexico, using SINTACS analysis. The Chapala Marsh aquifer is characterized by a granular structure and a fractured recharge zone; there are natural and anthropogenic sources of pollution. The results show discrepancies between the vulnerability indices and groundwater quality, as indicated by the existence of vulnerable areas with good water quality and vice versa. This is because the SINTACS method works well when contaminants have only vertical movement. For scenarios with lateral movement of contaminants, the method of geographic weighted regression (GWR) is used to model the influence of potential sources of contaminants on the water quality. 相似文献

The present research aims to derive the intrinsic vulnerability of groundwater against contamination using the GIS platform. The study applies DRASTIC model for Ahmedabad district in Gujarat, India. The model uses parameters like depth, recharge, aquifer, soil, topography, vadose zone and hydraulic conductivity, which depict the hydrogeology of the area. The research demonstrates that northern part of district with 46.4% of area is under low vulnerability, the central and southern parts with 48.4% of the area are under moderate vulnerability, while 5.2% of area in the south-east of district is under high vulnerability. It is observed from the study that lower vulnerability in northern part may be mostly due to the greater depth of vadose zone, deeper water tables and alluvial aquifer system with minor clay lenses. The moderate and high vulnerability in central and southern parts of study area may be due to lesser depth to water tables, smaller vadose zone depths, unconfined to semi-confined alluvial aquifer system and greater amount of recharge due to irrigation practices. Further, the map removal and single-parameter sensitivity analysis indicate that groundwater vulnerability index has higher influence of vadose zone, recharge, depth and aquifer parameters for the given study area. The research also contributes to validating the existence of higher concentrations of contaminants/indicators like electrical conductivity, chloride, total dissolved solids, sulphate, nitrate, calcium, sodium and magnesium with respect to groundwater vulnerability status in the study area. The contaminants/indicators exceeding the prescribed limits for drinking water as per Indian Standard 10500 (1991) were mostly found in areas under moderate and high vulnerability. Finally, the research successfully delineates the groundwater vulnerability in the region which can aid land-use policies and norms for activities related to recharge and seepage with respect to existing status of groundwater vulnerability and its quality. 相似文献

A modified DRASTIC model for groundwater vulnerability assessment (abbreviated as DRARCH model by combining the first letters
of its six assessment indices) was proposed. It is essentially the specific application of DRASTIC model rather than a new
model. Both natural hydrogeological conditions that prevent groundwater from contamination and important intrinsic hydrogeochemical
properties of sediments in vadose zone that are related to the retardation of contaminants were considered as vulnerability
indices. The DRARCH model consists of six indices: (1) Depth to the water table, (2) net Recharge, (3) Aquifer thickness,
(4) Ratio of cumulative thickness of clay layers to total thickness of vadose zone, (5) Contaminant adsorption coefficient
of sediment in vadose zone, and (6) Hydraulic conductivity of aquifer. The rating values and the weights of these vulnerability
indices were obtained by contaminant transport simulation and factor analysis method respectively. Furthermore, the DRARCH
model was applied to evaluate the groundwater vulnerability to arsenic contamination in Taiyuan basin, northern China, where
groundwaters with high arsenic concentration occur in some localities. GIS-based mapping of groundwater vulnerability using
this model indicates that the distribution of very high and high-vulnerability areas corresponds well to that of high-arsenic
groundwaters. The DRARCH model is therefore reliable and useful for guiding groundwater environment management. 相似文献

Vulnerability mapping of shallow groundwater aquifer using SINTACS model in the Jordan Valley area, Jordan 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Jordan Valley is one of the important areas in Jordan that involves dense agricultural activities, which depend on groundwater resources. The groundwater is exploited from an unconfined shallow aquifer which is mainly composed of alluvial deposits. In the vicinity of the Kafrein and South Shunah, the shallow aquifer shows signs of contamination from a wide variety of non-point sources. In this study, a vulnerability map was created as a tool to determine areas where groundwater is most vulnerable to contamination. One of the most widely used groundwater vulnerability mapping methods is SINTACS, which is a point count system model for the assessment of groundwater pollution hazards. SINTACS model is an adaptation for Mediterranean conditions of the well-known DRASTIC model. The model takes into account several environmental factors: these include topography, hydrology, geology, hydrogeology, and pedology. Spatial knowledge of all these factors and their mutual relationships is needed in order to properly model aquifer vulnerability using this model. Geographic information system was used to express each of SINTACS parameters as a spatial thematic layer with a specific weight and score. The final SINTACS thematic layer (intrinsic vulnerability index) was produced by taking the summation of each score parameter multiplied by its specific weight. The resultant SINTACS vulnerability map of the study area indicates that the highest potential sites for contamination are along the area between Er Ramah and Kafrein area. To the north of the study area there is a small, circular area which shows fairly high potential. Elsewhere, very low to low SINTACS index values are observed, indicating areas of low vulnerability potential. 相似文献

Groundwater vulnerability assessment in coastal plain of Rio Grande do Sul State,Brazil, using drastic and adsorption capacity of soils 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Groundwater vulnerability assessment to delineate areas that are more susceptible to contamination has become an important
element for resource management and land use planning. The objective of this work was to integrate hydrogeologic data in a
geographic information system (GIS) for phreatic groundwater vulnerability assessment of a pilot area from the Coastal Plain
of the Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil, using the DRASTIC method and adsorption capacity of soils. The studied ions were copper,
lead, sulfate and phosphate. Using the original DRASTIC method, the vulnerability presented high values, mainly due to the
texture of the sediments and the low depths of waters, which favor the accessibility of the contaminants to the groundwaters.
DRASTIC with adsorption capacity of soils showed specifics results for each studied ion. Groundwater vulnerability to metals
in relationship to anions was lower. These results show that the original DRASTIC method represents better contaminants with
high mobility.

Evaluation of groundwater vulnerability in the lower Varuna catchment area,Uttar Pradesh,India using AVI concept 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Groundwater vulnerability assessments calculate the sensitivity of quality of groundwater to an imposed contaminant load which is essential element of the aquifer management plans. Seventy five groundwater samples have been analyzed for different chemical parameters to understand the groundwater quality of the lower Varuna river basin, Uttar Pradesh, India. The intrinsic groundwater vulnerability map of the lower Varuna catchment area in the north of the city of Varanasi (India) shows a high dependency on the depth to groundwater. The topmost layer of alluvial silty clay, protects the groundwater against contamination in this urban area, but the retention time in the unsaturated zone can be estimated to several months only. The input dataset is very sparse i.e. groundwater levels were measured twice (pre- and post-monsoon 2009) and the geological map shows only alluvium as the outcrop. Several boreholes in this area show, that the alluvium has a thickness of about 4 m and below that are fine grained sands. The surface information does not allow the development of a risk map since land use changes very fast and contamination areas can not be identified accurately. The vulnerability maps developed in this study have become important tools for environmental planning and predictive management of the groundwater resources in the fast urbanizing region in the Varanasi area. 相似文献

Evaluation of aquifers vulnerability to contamination in the Yarmouk River basin, Jordan, based on DRASTIC method 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The existing different human activities and planned land uses put the groundwater resources in Jordan at considerable risk. There are evidences suggesting that the quality of groundwater supplies in north Jordan is under threat from a wide variety of point and non-point sources including agricultural, domestic, and industrial. Vulnerability maps are designed to show areas of greatest potential for groundwater contamination on the basis of hydrogeological conditions and human impacts. DRASTIC method incorporates the major geological and hydrogeological factors that affect and control groundwater movement: depth to groundwater (D), net recharge (R), lithology of the aquifer (A), soil texture (S), topography (T), lithology of vadose zone (I), and hydraulic conductivity (C). The main goal of this study is to produce vulnerability maps of groundwater resources in the Yarmouk River basin by applying the DRASTIC method to determine areas where groundwater protection or monitoring is critical. ArcGIS 9.2 was used to create the groundwater vulnerability maps by overlaying the available hydrogeological data. The resulting vulnerability maps were then integrated with lineament and land use maps as additional parameters in the DRASTIC model to assess more accurately the potential risk of groundwater to pollution. The general DRASTIC index indicates that the potential for polluting groundwater is low in the whole basin, whereas the resulting pesticide DRASTIC vulnerability map indicates that about 31% of the basin is classified as having moderate vulnerability, which may be attributed to agricultural activities in the area. Although high nitrate concentrations were found in areas of moderate vulnerability, DRASTIC method did not depict accurately the nitrate distribution in the area. 相似文献

The concept of aquifer vulnerability is certainly useful in the field of groundwater protection. Nevertheless, within the scientific community, the definition of vulnerability is still under debate and lacks standardisation. As a consequence, the methods for evaluating the vulnerability degree are numerous and often lead to conflicting results. Thus, in this study, three methods that are commonly used in groundwater vulnerability assessments due to their easy application (namely DRASTIC, GOD and TOT) were utilised in four areas of the Piedmont region (NW Italy). The results obtained by the different methods were compared and correlated with the nitrate concentrations in the groundwater. The aims of the study were (i) to evaluate the effectiveness of the adopted methods and their comparability, (ii) to discuss the limits of the intrinsic vulnerability methods and (iii) to verify the applicability of nitrate as a tracer in the assessment of groundwater vulnerability or explain the reasons why it is not applicable. It was observed that the three intrinsic vulnerability methods are not able to uniquely identify the most or least vulnerable areas. Additionally, the comparison of the intrinsic vulnerability indexes only occasionally showed a reasonable correlation. Furthermore, there was no clear correlation between the vulnerability indexes and nitrate concentrations in the groundwater. These results could be explained by several reasons: (1) the methods are mostly based on the level of groundwater protection provided by the overlaying lithologies and do not consider the physical processes occurring in the aquifer; (2) the intrinsic vulnerability methods only consider vertical pathways for contaminants, but a pre-existing contaminant could be present in the aquifer; (3) groundwater nitrate concentrations are affected by the nitrate input and surplus; and (4) nitrates are subject to physical and biological attenuation in aquifers and cannot necessarily be considered stable tracers in the assessment of groundwater vulnerability. 相似文献

According to the characteristics of groundwater in arid area, this paper proposes DRAV model for groundwater vulnerability
assessment, where D is groundwater depth, R is the net recharge of aquifer, A is the aquifer characteristics, and V is the lithology of vadose zone. As a case study, the paper assesses the vulnerability of pore phreatic water in Tarim Basin
of Xinjiang, China by using the DRAV model. The results indicate that the areas of phreatic water with vulnerability index
ranges of 2–4, 4–6, 6–8 and >8 accounting for 10.1, 80.4, 9.2 and 0.2% of the total plain area of the Tarim Basin respectively,
and the areas with the latter two vulnerability ranges (6–8 and >8) are mainly located in the irrigation districts with thin
soil layer (20–30 cm thick surface soil of vadose zone, mainly with underlying sandy gravel) and with silty and fine sand
layer. Such vadose zone generally lacks sandy loam and clayey soil and has larger recharge by infiltration of irrigation water. 相似文献

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.
