地质部系统各水文地质单位近一、二年来,陆续开展了第四纪地质研究课题,并取得了一定的成果。如江苏二水对淮北地区第四纪地层划分与对比进行了较为系统的总结;辽宁、浙江队编制了全省第四纪地质图,江苏一水在对长江三角洲第四纪地质研究工作中,与中科院海洋所等单位协作,完成了1/50万三角洲地区第四纪地质图和1/20万南通沿海第四纪地质图的编制工作;黑龙江一水初步确定了黑龙江省第四系下限深度,认为第四系内存在九套地层,并首次获得了白土山组地层的年龄,为编     

青海省共和盆地的第四纪地层

共和盆地是我国西北地区比较典型的一个中、新生代断陷盆地。其内堆积了一套发育良好的第四纪河湖相地层。早在1936年,孙健初教授就将其内的晚第三纪及第四纪早、中更新世红色地层命名为共和统。1959年,青海省水文队在该区进行水文地质普查工作时,在这套地层中采到了一批脊椎动物化石。后经周本雄、刘后一鉴定研究,发现其中有我国北方第四纪早、中更新世动物群的标准种属:三门马、中国鬣狗等。并依此将该套地层时代确定为早、中更新世。至此,这套河湖相地层便引起了国内许多研究第四纪地质的学者们注意和重视,并与我国北方早更     

甘肃酒泉Q_(y1)钻孔磁性地层划分与对比

甘肃第四纪地质研究取得了丰硕成果，但因各家对第四纪地层划分的原则和依据不统一及其他原因，致使第四纪划分的一些基本问题尚无统一意见。为建立河西走廊地层层序，本文依据酒泉Ｑｙ１钻孔磁性地层特征、热释光测试成果、１４Ｃ资料及岩石地层特征进行地层划分。依据区域地质资料和古地磁成果，确定第四纪下限为２．４８Ｍａ，中更新世下限为０．７３Ｍａ，晚更新世下限为０．２０Ｍａ，全新世下限为０．０１２Ｍａ。

基于生态优先的水资源承载力分源评价及应用——以河北保定平原为例

水资源是保障区域发展的重要因素,是维持生态环境的关键要素。保定平原区作为京津冀地区的重要区域,其水资源承载能力对于区域生态和社会经济发展具有重要意义。本文以生态优先为基本理念,基于不同供水来源与不同用水类型的供给与利用关系,采用定额计算和线性加权目标规划相结合的方法,对保定平原区水资源承载力进行分源评价,并与地方规划相对比,进行了水资源承载力分级。结果表明:在保证生态需水和农业灌溉用水的基础上,保定平原区在持续枯水年条件下城镇生活和工业生产2025年可提供水量为4.63×10~8m~3、水量缺口0.52×10~8m~3,2030年可提供水量为6.96×10~8m~3、水量缺口0.56×10~8m~3;持续平水年条件下,城镇生活和工业生产2025年可提供水量为5.81×10~8m~3、水量盈余0.66×10~8m~3;2030年可提供水量为8.14×10~8m~3、水量盈余0.62×10~8m~3。该项研究旨在为保定平原地区发展规划制定提供科学依据。     

Groundwater resources in the North China Plain

Shallow groundwater is a major object of exploitation in the North China Plain. About 20 billion m³/yr of fresh groundwater and about 20 billion m³/yr of surface water are available. Present water demand is about equal to or exceeds the utilizable water resources in the North China Plain. Strict economy of water use is needed along with strengthened water control, a restructured development plan, and artificial recharge.     

Ground water geochemistry of 228Ra, 226Ra and 222Rn

²²⁸Ra, ²²⁶Ra, and ²²²Rn activities were determined on over 150 ground water samples collected from drilled, public water supply wells throughout South Carolina. A wide range of aquifer lithologies were sampled including the crystalline rocks of the Piedmont and sedimentary deposits of the Coastal Plain. A significant linear relationship between log ²²⁸Ra and log ²²⁶Ra (n = 182, r = 0.83) was indistinguishable between Piedmont and Coastal Plain ground water. Median ${}^{228}\text{Ra}{}^{226}\text{Ra}$ activity ratios for the Piedmont, 1.2, and Coastal Plain, 1.3, ground water are close to estimated average crustal ${}^{232}\text{Th}{}^{238}\text{U}$ activity ratios of 1.2 to 1.5 corresponding to Th/U weight ratios of 3.5 to 4.5. A linear correlation was also found between log ²²²Rn and log ²²⁶Ra for Piedmont (n = 68, r = 0.62) and Coastal Plain (n = 89, r = 0.64) ground water. However, the median ${}^{222}\text{Rn}{}^{226}\text{Ra}$ activity ratio for Piedmont ground water, 6100, was much higher than for Coastal Plain ground water, 230. Higher excess ²²²Rn activities may be due to greater retention of ²²⁶Ra by the chemically active Piedmont aquifers compared to the more inert sand aquifers sampled in the Coastal Plain. The relationship between log ²²⁸Ra and log ²²⁶Ra was used to predict total Ra (${}^{228}\text{Ra +}{}^{226}\text{Ra}$) distributions in Appalachian and Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain ground water. Predictions estimate that 2.4% of Appalachian and 5.3% of Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain ground water supplies contain total Ra activities in excess of the 5 pCi/l limit established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. These predictions also indicate that 40–50% of these ground water wells may be overlooked using the presently suggested screening activity of 3.0 pCi/l of ²²⁶Ra for ²²⁸Ra analysis.     

中国东北平原西部荒漠化现状、成因及其治理途径研究

中国东北平原西部土地荒漠化,主要表现为土地沙漠化和土地盐碱化,它属于荒漠化的两种类型。东北 平原西部分布着科尔沁沙地和松嫩沙地,前者是全国五大沙漠之一。文章全面、系统地对该地区编制了 1∶1000000荒漠化图和量算出土地沙漠化面积。东北平原西部土地沙漠化面积为72280.6km²,占土地总面积的 22.2%。自20世纪50年代至80年代末,土地沙漠化面积迅速扩大,平均每年以1.5%～3.7%的速度递增;自9 年代以来,沙漠化呈现出逆转趋势,但就总体而言,沙漠化发展仍然大于逆转。东北平原西部土地盐碱化面积 33850.79km²,占土地总面积10.44%,主要分布在松嫩平原,面积为23329.19km²,占土地总面积15.2%,它是世 界上苏打盐碱化土壤的三大片之一,土地盐碱化每年以1.4%～2.5%速率正在发展。所以,该地区的土地荒漠化 不仅制约着当地农、牧业和农村经济的发展,影响周围和毗邻国家的生态环境安全,而且已危及当地人民的生存。 东北平原西部荒漠化的形成有自然因素和人为因素,前者有物源和气候变化等原因,后者有草原超载过牧、滥 垦、滥伐滥櫵、乱挖,河流上中游修建水库等原因,以及冻融作用的特殊原因,致使荒漠化形成和发展。文章总结了 该地区沙漠化正、逆过程的演变,并提出荒漠化的治理应根据荒漠化     

Groundwater Flow Simulation and its Application in Groundwater Resource Evaluation in the North China Plain,China

The purpose of this study is to establish a 3D groundwater flow modelling for evaluating groundwater resources of the North China Plain.First,the North China Plain was divided into three aquifers vertically through a characterization of hydrogeological conditions.Groundwater model software GMS was used for modeling to divide the area of simulation into a regular network of 164 rows and 148 lines.This model was verified through fitting of the observed and the simulated groundwater flow fields at deep and shallow layers and comparison between the observed and simulated hydrographs at 64 typical observation wells.Furthermore,water budget analysis was also performed during the simulation period(2002-2003).Results of the established groundwater flow model showed that the average annual groundwater recharge of the North China Plain during 1991 to 2003 was 256.68×10~8 m~3/yr with safe yield of groundwater resources up to 213.49×10~8 m~3/yr,in which safe yield of shallow groundwater and that of deep groundwater was up to 191.65×10~8 m~3/yr and 22.64×10~8 m~3/yr respectively.Finally,this model was integrated with proposal for groundwater withdrawal in the study area after commencement of water supply by South-North Water Transfer Project,aiming to predict the changing trend of groundwater regime.As indicated by prediction results,South-North Water Transfer Project,which is favorable for effective control of expansion and intensification of existing depression cone,would play a positive role in alleviation of short supply of groundwater in the North China Plain as well as maintenance and protection of groundwater.     

Geochemical characterization of arsenic-affected alluvial aquifers of the Bengal Delta (West Bengal and Bangladesh) and Chianan Plains (SW Taiwan): Implications for human health

Major ion and trace element analyses were performed on groundwater samples collected from the Bengal Delta (Chakdaha municipality, West Bengal and Manikgonj town, Bangladesh) and Chianan Plains (SW Taiwan) to compare geochemical characteristics. Results showed that concentrations of Na, K, Mg, Cl and SO₄ were generally higher in Chianan Plain (CNP) groundwaters, while high Ca was observed in Bengal Delta Plain (BDP) groundwater. Measured As concentrations in groundwaters of BDP and CNP showed large variations, with mean As concentrations of 221 μg/L (range: 1.1-476 μg/L) in Chakdaha, 60 μg/L (range: 0.30-202 μg/L) in Manikgonj, and 208 μg/L (range: 1.3-575 μg/L) in CNP groundwater. The Fe-reduction mechanism was found to be the dominant geochemical process in releasing As from sediment to groundwater in Chakdaha, West Bengal, however the Mn-reduction process was dominant in groundwaters of Manikgonj, Bangladesh. In Chianan Plain groundwater, a combination of geochemical processes (e.g., bacterial Fe-reduction, mineral precipitation and dissolution reactions) controlled release of As. Fluorescence spectral patterns of the groundwater showed low relative fluorescence intensity (RFI) of dissolved humic substances in BDP groundwater (mean: 63 and 72 QSU, Chakdaha and Manikgonj, respectively), while high RFI was observed in CNP groundwater (mean: 393 QSU). The FT-IR spectra of the extracted humic acid fractions from sediments of Chianan Plain showed a stronger aliphatic band at 2850-3000 cm⁻¹ and a higher resolved fingerprint area (from 1700 to 900 cm⁻¹) compared with BDP sediments. The geochemical differences between the study areas may play a crucial role in the clinical manifestation of Blackfoot disease observed only in Chianan Plain, SW Taiwan.     

Groundwater arsenic in the Chaco-Pampean Plain,Argentina: case study from Robles county,Santiago del Estero Province

In large parts of rural Argentina people depend on groundwater whose As content exceeds the Argentine drinking water standards (0.05 mg l⁻¹). The most affected areas are located in the Chaco-Pampean Plain, where aquifers comprise Tertiary loess deposits (in the Pampean Plain) and Tertiary and Quaternary fluvial and aeolian sediments (in the Chaco Plain). Robles county is located in the alluvial cone of the Dulce River consisting of loess (aeolian), and gravel, silt, sand and clay (alluvial) deposits. In the shallow aquifers, more than 48% of the 63 studied wells show As at toxic levels (maximum 4.8 mg l⁻¹), while in the deep groundwater the concentration is below 0.05 mg l⁻¹. The pH of the shallow groundwaters range between 6.5 and 9 and generally have high electrical conductivity with mean values of 2072 and 1693 μS/cm⁻¹ in the years 1998 and 1999, respectively. Arsenic concentrations are high in the alkaline Na–HCO₃ type groundwaters, where As correlates positively with Na⁺ and HCO₃⁻. Moreover, As correlates positively with Mo, U, and V, while a negative correlation was observed with Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺. The potential sources of groundwater As are: (i) layers of volcanic ash with 90% of rhyolitic glass; (ii) volcanic glass dispersed in the sediments; and (iii) clastic sediments of metamorphic and igneous origin. Great lateral variability in the concentration of groundwater As is caused by several hydrogeological and hydrogeochemical factors.     

Occurrence and geochemistry of radium in water from principal drinking-water aquifer systems of the United States

A total of 1270 raw-water samples (before treatment) were collected from 15 principal and other major aquifer systems (PAs) used for drinking water in 45 states in all major physiographic provinces of the USA and analyzed for concentrations of the Ra isotopes ²²⁴Ra, ²²⁶Ra and ²²⁸Ra establishing the framework for evaluating Ra occurrence. The US Environmental Protection Agency Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) of 0.185 Bq/L (5 pCi/L) for combined Ra (²²⁶Ra plus ²²⁸Ra) for drinking water was exceeded in 4.02% (39 of 971) of samples for which both ²²⁶Ra and ²²⁸Ra were determined, or in 3.15% (40 of 1266) of the samples in which at least one isotope concentration (²²⁶Ra or ²²⁸Ra) was determined. The maximum concentration of combined Ra was 0.755 Bq/L (20.4 pCi/L) in water from the North Atlantic Coastal Plain quartzose sand aquifer system. All the exceedences of the MCL for combined Ra occurred in water samples from the following 7 PAs (in order of decreasing relative frequency of occurrence): the Midcontinent and Ozark Plateau Cambro-Ordovician dolomites and sandstones, the North Atlantic Coastal Plain, the Floridan, the crystalline rocks (granitic, metamorphic) of New England, the Mesozoic basins of the Appalachian Piedmont, the Gulf Coastal Plain, and the glacial sands and gravels (highest concentrations in New England).     

Evaluation of shallow geothermal energy resources in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Plain based on land use

To discover the characteristics, distribution and potential of shallow geothermal energy in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Plain area. This paper, based on a large amount of data collection and field investigations, evaluateed the shallow-layer geothermal energy in the study area through the analytic hierarchy process and comprehensive index method. Based on suitability zoning results superimposed with 1:100 000 land use data, the study area is divided into encouraged, controlled, restricted and prospective mining areas regarding the development of shallow geothermal energy, and the economic availability of shallow geothermal energy in the encouraged and controlled areas are evaluated. The results show that the shallow geothermal energy in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Plain can meet the heating and cooling demand of 6×108 m~2 of buildings, equivalent to 1.15×10~7 t of standard coal, thus reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 2.73×10~7 t and reducing sulfur dioxide emissions by 1.95×10~5 t. According to the development and utilization mode, the energy demand level and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei coordinated development plan, the development and utilization of geothermal resources in the plain area has two types: Urban concentrated mining areas and rural scattered mining areas. The scale and level of intensive utilization of regional geothermal resources are of great significance.
