The degradation of groundwater quality, which has been noted in the recent years, is closely connected to the intensification
of agriculture, the unreasonable use of chemical fertilizers and the excess consumption of large volumes of irrigation water.
In the hilly region of central Thessaly in Greece, which suffers the consequences of intense agricultural use, a hydrogeological
study is carried out, taking groundwater samples from springs and boreholes in the Neogene aquifers. The aim of this study
is the investigation of irrigation management, water quality and suitability for various uses (water supply, irrigation),
the degradation degree and the spatial distribution of pollutants using GIS. The following hydrochemical types prevail in
the groundwater of the study area: Ca–Mg–HCO3, Mg–Ca–Na–HCO3 and Na–HCO3. In the above shallow aquifers, especially high values of NO3
− (31.7–299.0), NH4
+ (0.12–1.11), NO2
− (0.018–0.109), PO4
3− (0.07–0.55), SO4
2− (47.5–146.5) and Cl− (24.8–146.5) are found, particularly near inhabited areas (values are in mg L−1). The water of shallow aquifers is considered unsuitable for human use due to their high polluting load, while the water
of the deeper aquifers is suitable for human consumption. Regarding water suitability for irrigation, the evaluation of SAR
(0.153–7.397) and EC (481–1,680 μS cm−1) resulted in classification category ‘C3S1’, indicating high salinity and low sodium water which can be used for irrigation
in most soils and crops with little to medium danger of development of exchangeable sodium and salinity. The statistical data
analysis, the factor analysis and the GIS application have brought out the vulnerable-problematic zones in chemical compounds
of nitrogen and phosphates. The groundwater quality degradation is localized and related exclusively to human activities.
Based on 2005 and 2008 estimates, the annual safe yield of the region’s aquifers were nearly 41.95 MCM. However, the existing
situation is that 6.37 MCM of water is over extracted from these aquifers. 相似文献

Influence of hydrogeochemical processes on temporal changes in groundwater quality in a part of Nalgonda district, Andhra Pradesh, India 总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1
Geochemical processes that take place in the aquifer have played a major role in spatial and temporal variations of groundwater
quality. This study was carried out with an objective of identifying the hydrogeochemical processes that controls the groundwater
quality in a weathered hard rock aquifer in a part of Nalgonda district, Andhra Pradesh, India. Groundwater samples were collected
from 45 wells once every 2 months from March 2008 to September 2009. Chemical parameters of groundwater such as groundwater
level, EC and pH were measured insitu. The major ion concentrations such as Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, Cl−, and SO4
2− were analyzed using ion chromatograph. CO3
− and HCO3
− concentration was determined by acid–base titration. The abundance of major cation concentration in groundwater is as Na+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ > K+ while that of anions is HCO3
− > SO4
2− > Cl− > CO3
−. Ca–HCO3, Na–Cl, Ca–Na–HCO3 and Ca–Mg–Cl are the dominant groundwater types in this area. Relation between temporal variation in groundwater level and
saturation index of minerals reveals the evaporation process. The ion-exchange process controls the concentration of ions
such as calcium, magnesium and sodium. The ionic ratio of Ca/Mg explains the contribution of calcite and dolomite to groundwater.
In general, the geochemical processes and temporal variation of groundwater in this area are influenced by evaporation processes,
ion exchange and dissolution of minerals. 相似文献

Hydrochemical appraisal of groundwater and its suitability in the intensive agricultural area of Muzaffarnagar district,Uttar Pradesh,India 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Muzaffarnagar is an economically rich district situated in the most fertile plains of two great rivers Ganga and Yamuna in
the Indo-gangetic plains, with agricultural land irrigated by both surface water as well as groundwater. An investigation
has been carried out to understand the hydrochemistry of the groundwater and its suitability for irrigation uses. Groundwater
in the study area is neutral to moderately alkaline in nature. Chemistry of groundwater suggests that alkaline earths (Ca + Mg)
significantly exceed the alkalis (Na + K) and weak acids exceed the strong acids (Cl + SO4), suggesting the dominance of carbonate weathering followed by silicate weathering. Majority of the groundwater samples (62%)
posses Ca–Mg–HCO3 type of hydrochemical species, followed by Ca–Na–Mg–HCO3, Na–Ca–Mg–HCO3, Ca–Mg–Na–HCO3–Cl and Na–Ca–HCO3–SO4 types. A positive high correlation (r
2 = 0.928) between Na and Cl suggests that the salinity of groundwater is due to intermixing of two or more groundwater bodies
with different hydrochemical compositions. Barring a few locations, most of the groundwater samples are suitable for irrigation
uses. Chemical fertilizers, sugar factories and anthropogenic activities are contributing to the sulphate and chloride concentrations
in the groundwater of the study area. Overexploitation of aquifers induced multi componential mixing of groundwater with agricultural
return flow waters is responsible for generating groundwater of various compositions in its lateral extent. 相似文献

Twenty groundwater samples were collected from two different areas in Satkhira Sadar Upazila to identify the source of salinity
in deep groundwater aquifer. Most of the analyzed groundwater is of Na–Cl–HCO3 type water. The trends of anion and cation are Cl− > HCO3
− > NO3
− > SO4
2− and Na+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ > K+, respectively. Groundwater chemistry in the study area is mainly governed by rock dissolution and ion exchange. The dissolved
minerals in groundwater mainly come from silicate weathering. The salinity of groundwater samples varies from ~1 to ~5%, and
its source is possibly the paleo-brackish water which may be entrapped during past geologic periods. 相似文献

This study was carried out to analyze groundwater quality in selected villages of Nalbari district, Assam, India, where groundwater
is the main source of drinking water. 40 groundwater samples collected from hand pumps and analyzed for pH, EC, TDS, Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, HCO3
−, SO4
2−, Cl− and F−. Chemical analysis of the groundwater showed that mean concentration of cations in (mg/L) is in the order Ca2+ > Mg2+ > Na+ > K+ while for anions it is HCO3
− > Cl− > SO4
2− > F−. Fluoride concentration was recorded in the range of 0.02–1.56 mg/L. As per the desirable and maximum permissible limits
for fluoride in drinking water recommended by WHO and by Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), which is 1.5 mg/L, the groundwater
of about 97% of the samples were found to be suitable for drinking purpose. The suitability of the groundwater for irrigation
purpose was investigated by some determining factors such as sodium adsorption ratio, soluble sodium percentage, Kelly’s ratio
and electrical conductivity. The value of the sodium absorption ratio and electrical conductivity of the groundwater samples
were plotted in the US Salinity laboratory diagram for irrigation water. Most of the groundwater samples fall in the field
of C2S1 and C3S1 indicating medium to high salinity and low sodium water, which can be used for irrigation on almost all types
of soil with little doubt of exchangeable sodium. The hydrochemical facies shows that the groundwater is Ca-HCO3 type. 相似文献

National scale evaluation of groundwater chemistry in Korea coastal aquifers: evidences of seawater intrusion 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
Youngyun Park Jin-Yong Lee Jeong-Hee Kim Sung-Ho Song 《Environmental Earth Sciences》2012,66(3):707-718
Pollution of groundwater by seawater intrusion poses a threat to sustainable agriculture in the coastal areas of Korea. Therefore, seawater intrusion monitoring stations were installed in eastern, western, and southern coastal areas and have been operated since 1998. In this study, groundwater chemistry data obtained from the seawater intrusion monitoring stations during the period from 2007 to 2009 were analyzed and evaluated. Groundwater was classified into fresh (<1,500 μS/cm), brackish (1,500–3,000 μS/cm), and saline (>3,000 μS/cm) according to EC levels. Among groundwater samples (n = 233), 56, 7, and 37% were classified as the fresh, brackish, and saline, respectively. The major dissolved components of the brackish and saline groundwaters were enriched compared with those of the fresh groundwater. The enrichment of Na+ and Cl− was especially noticeable due to seawater intrusion. Thus, the brackish and saline groundwaters were classified as Ca–Cl and Na–Cl types, while the fresh groundwater was classified as Na–HCO3 and Ca–HCO3 types. The groundwater included in the Na–Cl types indicated the effects of seawater mixing. Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, SO4 2−, and Br− showed good correlations with Cl− of over r = 0.624. Of these components, the strong correlations of Mg2+, SO4 2−, and Br− with Cl− (r ≥ 0.823) indicated a distinct mixing between fresh groundwater and seawater. The Ca/Cl and HCO3/Cl ratios of the groundwaters gradually decreased and approached those of seawater. The Mg/Cl, Na/Cl, K/Cl, SO4/Cl, and Br/Cl ratios of the groundwaters gradually decreased, and were similar to or lower than those of seawater, indicating that Mg2+, Na+, K+, SO4 2−, and Br−, as well as Cl− in the saline groundwater can be enriched by seawater mixing, while Ca2+ and HCO3 − are mainly released by weathering processes. The influence of seawater intrusion was evaluated using threshold values of Cl− and Br−, which were estimated as 80.5 and 0.54 mg/L, respectively. According to these criteria, 41–50% of the groundwaters were affected by seawater mixing. 相似文献

Hydrogeochemical investigations are carried out in and around Perumal Lake, Cuddalore district, South India in order to assess
its suitability in relation to domestic and agricultural uses. The water samples (surface water = 16; groundwater = 12) were
analyzed for various physicochemical attributes like pH, electrical conductivity (EC), sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), chloride (Cl−), bicarbonate (HCO3
−), sulfate (SO4
2−), phosphate (PO4), silica (H4SiO4) and total dissolved solids (TDS). Major hydrochemical facies were identified using Piper trilinear diagram. Hydrogeochemical
processes controlling the water chemistry are water–rock interaction rather than evaporation and precipitation. Interpretation
of isotopic signatures reveals that groundwater samples recharged by meteoric water with few water–rock interactions. A comparison
of water quality in relation to drinking water quality standard proves that the surface water samples are suitable for drinking
purpose, whereas groundwater in some areas exceeds the permissible limit. Various determinants such as sodium absorption ratio
(SAR), percent sodium (Na%), residual sodium carbonate (RSC) and permeability index (PI) revealed that most of the samples
are suitable for irrigation. 相似文献

Hydrochemical investigations were carried out in Damagh area, Hamadan, western Iran, to assess chemical composition of groundwater.
Forty representative groundwater samples were collected from different wells to monitor the water chemistry of various ions.
Chemical analysis of the groundwater showed that the mean concentration of the cations is in the order Na+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ > K+, while that for anions was HCO3− > Cl− > SO42 − > NO3−. All of the investigated groundwaters present two different chemical facies (Ca–HCO3 and Na–HCO3) which is in relation with their interaction with the geological formations of the basin, cation exchange between groundwater
and clay minerals and anthropogenic activities. The principal component analysis (PCA) performed on groundwater identified
three principal components controlling their variability in groundwater. Electrical conductivity, Mg2+, Na+, SO42−, and Cl− content were associated in the same component (PC1) (salinity), determined principally by anthropogenic activities. The pH,
CO32 −, HCO3−, and Ca2+ (PC2) content were related to the geogenic factor. Finally, the NO3−, Cl− and K+ (PC3) were controlled by anthropogenic activity as a consequence of inorganic fertilizers. 相似文献

Hydrogeochemical processes in the groundwater environment of Heihe River Basin,northwest China 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The Heihe River Basin is a typical arid inland river basin for examining stress on groundwater resources in northwest China.
The basin is composed of large volumes of unconsolidated Quaternary sediments of widely differing grain size, and during the
past half century, rapid socio-economic development has created an increased demand for groundwater resources. Understanding
the hydrogeochemical processes of groundwater and water quality is important for sustainable development and effective management
of groundwater resources in the Heihe River basin. To this end, a total of 30 representative groundwater samples were collected
from different wells to monitor the water chemistry of various ions and its quality for irrigation. Chemical analysis shows
that water presents a large spatial variability of chemical facies (SO4
2−–HCO3−, SO4
2−–Cl−, and Cl−–SO4
2−) as groundwater flow from recharge area to discharge area. The ionic ratio indicates positive correlation between the flowing
pairs of parameters: Cl− and Na+(r = 0.95), SO4
2− and Na+ (r = 0.84), HCO3
− and Mg2+(r = 0.86), and SO4
2− and Ca2+ (r = 0.91). Dissolution of minerals, such as halite, gypsum, dolomite, silicate, and Mirabilite (Na2SO4·10H2O) in the sediments results in the Cl−, SO4
2−, HCO3
−, Na+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ content in the groundwater. Other reactions, such as evaporation, ion exchange, and deposition also influence the water composition.
The suitability of the groundwater for irrigation was assessed based on the US Salinity Laboratory salinity classification
and the Wilcox diagram. The results show that most of the groundwater samples are suitable for irrigation uses barring a few
locations in the dessert region in the northern sub-basin. 相似文献

Geochemistry of groundwater,Markandeya River Basin,Belgaum district,Karnataka State,India 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The Markandeya River Basin stretches geographically from 15o56′ to 16o08′ N latitude and 74o37′ to 74o58′ E longitude, positioned in the midst of Belgaum district, in the northern part of Karnataka. The groundwater quality of 54 pre-monsoon samples in the Markandeya River Basin was evaluated for its suitability for drinking and irrigation purposes by estimating pH, EC, TDS, hardness and alkalinity besides major cations (Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+) and anions (HCO3–, Cl–, SO42–, PO43-, F-, NO3–), boron, SAR, % Na, RSC, RSBC, chlorinity index, SSP, non-carbonate hardness, Potential Salinity, Permeability Index, Kelley’s ratio, Magnesium hazard and Index of Base Exchange. Negative Index of Base Exchange indicates the chloro-alkaline disequilibrium in the study area and the majority of water samples fall in the rock dominance field based on Gibbs’ ratio. Permeability indices of classes I and II suggest suitability of groundwater for irrigation. Based on Cl, SO4, HCO3 concentrations, water samples can be classified as normal chloride (96.3%) and normal sulfate (94.4%) and normal bicarbonate (44.4%) water types. 相似文献

The Markanda river basin occupying an area of about 1547 km2 is a part of the alluvial deposits of the Indo- Gangetic plain near the Himalayan foothills in the northwest India. The region
is associated with active agricultural activities and makes significant contribution to the country’s agricultural products.
Assessment of groundwater quality for irrigation use and hydrochemical evolution of groundwater has been studied. Hydrochemical
analysis has been carried out based on concentrations of Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, Cl−, SO4
2−, CO3
2− and HCO3
−. Sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), percent sodium (%Na), permeability index (PI) and Trilinear diagram have been studied to
evaluate suitability of irrigation use. Hydrochemical evolution has been analyzed based on the Chebotarev sequence and expanded
Durov diagram. SAR, %Na and PI results indicate that the groundwater in the basin is suitable for irrigation use. Analysis
on Trilinear diagram reveals that hydrochemical facies are dominated by HCO3
−- Ca2+- Mg2+ facies indicating that the groundwater is associated with recharge waters percolating through sandstone and limestone rocks
which are exposed in the northern part of the basin. Studies based on Chebotarev anion sequence and expanded Durov diagram
indicate that the evolution of groundwater belongs to initial to intermediate stage indicating fresh water quality. Thus,
the present work reveals that groundwater in the Markanda basin is of good quality and is suitable for all uses including
interbasin water transfer in the region. 相似文献

An integrated study has been carried out to elucidate the distribution and occurrence of arsenic in selected groundwater samples
in the area of Sherajdikhan, Bangladesh. Arsenic and other parameters (T, pH, EC, Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cl−, NO3
−, SO4
2−, HCO3
−, PO4
3−, Fe, Mn and DOC) have been measured in groundwater samples collected from shallow/deep tube wells at different depths. Hydrogeochemical
data suggest that the groundwaters are generally Ca–Mg–HCO3 and Mg–Ca–HCO3 types with bicarbonate (HCO3
−) as the dominant anion, though the other type of water has also been observed. Dissolved arsenic in groundwater ranged from
0.006 to 0.461 mg/l, with 69% groundwater samples exceeded the Bangladesh limit for safe drinking water (0.05 mg/l). Correlation
and principal component analysis have been performed to find out possible relationships among the examined parameters in groundwater.
Low concentrations of NO3
− and SO4
2−, and high concentrations of DOC, HCO3
− and PO4
3− indicate the reducing condition of subsurface aquifer where sediments are deposited with abundant organic matter. Distinct
relationship of As with Fe and Mn, and strong correlation with DOC suggests that the biodegradation of organic matter along
with reductive dissolution of Fe–Mn oxyhydroxides has being considered the dominant process to release As in the aquifers
studied herein. 相似文献

Recharge source and hydrogeochemical evolution of shallow groundwater in a complex alluvial fan system,southwest of North China Plain 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Fadong Li Guoying Pan Changyuan Tang Qiuying Zhang Jingjie Yu 《Environmental Geology》2008,55(5):1109-1122
Many cities around the world are developed at alluvial fans. With economic and industrial development and increase in population,
quality and quantity of groundwater are often damaged by over-exploitation in these areas. In order to realistically assess
these groundwater resources and their sustainability, it is vital to understand the recharge sources and hydrogeochemical
evolution of groundwater in alluvial fans. In March 2006, groundwater and surface water were sampled for major element analysis
and stable isotope (oxygen-18 and deuterium) compositions in Xinxiang, which is located at a complex alluvial fan system composed
of a mountainous area, Taihang Mt. alluvial fan and Yellow River alluvial fan. In the Taihang mountainous area, the groundwater
was recharged by precipitation and was characterized by Ca–HCO3 type water with depleted δ18O and δD (mean value of −8.8‰ δ18O). Along the flow path from the mountainous area to Taihang Mt. alluvial fan, the groundwater became geochemically complex
(Ca–Na–Mg–HCO3–Cl–SO4 type), and heavier δ18O and δD were observed (around −8‰ δ18O). Before the surface water with mean δ18O of −8.7‰ recharged to groundwater, it underwent isotopic enrichment in Taihang Mt. alluvial fan. Chemical mixture and ion
exchange are expected to be responsible for the chemical evolution of groundwater in Yellow River alluvial fan. Transferred
water from the Yellow River is the main source of the groundwater in the Yellow River alluvial fan in the south of the study
area, and stable isotopic compositions of the groundwater (mean value of −8.8‰ δ18O) were similar to those of transferred water (−8.9‰), increasing from the southern boundary of the study area to the distal
end of the fan. The groundwater underwent chemical evolution from Ca–HCO3, Na–HCO3, to Na–SO4. A conceptual model, integrating stiff diagrams, is used to describe the spatial variation of recharge sources, chemical
evolution, and groundwater flow paths in the complex alluvial fan aquifer system. 相似文献

Hydrochemical characteristics and quality assessment of shallow groundwater in a coastal area of Southwest Bangladesh 总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1
In this study, the hydrochemical characteristics of shallow groundwater in a coastal region (Khulna) of southwest Bangladesh
have been evaluated based on different indices for drinking and irrigation uses. Water samples were collected from 26 boreholes
and analyzed for major cations and anions. Other physico-chemical parameters like pH, electrical conductivity (EC), and total
dissolved solids were also measured. Most groundwater is slightly alkaline and largely varies in chemical composition, e.g.
EC ranges from 962 to 9,370 μs/cm. The abundance of the major ions is as follows: Na+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ > K+ = Cl− > HCO3
− > SO4
2− > NO3
−. Interpretation of analytical data shows two major hydrochemical facies (Na+–K+–Cl−–SO4
2− and Na+–K+–HCO3
−) in the study area. Salinity, total hardness, and sodium percentage (Na%) indicate that most of the groundwater samples are
not suitable for irrigation as well as for domestic purposes and far from drinking water standard. Results suggest that the
brackish nature in most of the groundwaters is due to the seawater influence and hydrogeochemical processes. 相似文献

Environmental geochemistry and quality assessment of surface and subsurface water of Mahi River basin, western India 总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1
The hydrogeochemical study of surface and subsurface water of Mahi River basin was undertaken to assess the major ion chemistry,
solute acquisition processes and water quality in relation to domestic and irrigation uses. The analytical results show the
mildly acidic to alkaline nature of water and dominance of Na+ and Ca2+ in cationic and HCO3
− and Cl− in anionic composition. In general, alkaline-earth elements (Ca2+ + Mg2+) exceed alkalis (Na+ + K+) and weak acids (HCO3
−) dominate over strong acids (SO4
2+ + Cl−) in majority of the surface and groundwater samples. Ca2+–Mg2+–HCO3
− is the dominant hydrochemical facies both in surface and groundwater of the area. The weathering of rock-forming minerals
mainly controlled the solute acquisition process with secondary contribution from marine and anthropogenic sources. The higher
concentration of sodium and dissolved silica, high equivalent ratios of (Na+ + K+/TZ+), (Na+ + K+/Cl−) and low ratio of (Ca2+ + Mg2+)/(Na+ + K+) suggest that the chemical composition of the water is largely controlled by silicate weathering with limited contribution
from carbonate weathering and marine and anthropogenic sources. Kaolinite is the possible mineral that is in equilibrium with
the water, implying that the chemistry of river water favors kaolinite formation. Assessment of water samples for drinking
purposes suggests that the majority of the water samples are suitable for drinking. At some sites concentrations of TDS, TH,
F−, NO3
− and Fe are exceeding the desirable limit of drinking. However, these parameters are well within the maximum permissible limit
except for some cases. To assess the suitability for irrigation, parameters like SAR, RSC and %Na were calculated. In general,
both surface and groundwater is of good to suitable category for irrigation uses except at some sites where high values of
salinity, %Na and RSC restrict its uses. 相似文献

Hydrogeochemical investigations are carried out in the different blocks of Burdwan district, West Bengal, India in order to
assess its suitability for drinking as well as irrigation water purpose. Altogether 49 representative groundwater samples
are collected from bore wells and the water chemistry of various ions viz. Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, CO32−, HCO3−, Cl−, SO42− and NO3− are carried out. The chemical relationships in Piper and Gibbs diagram suggest that the groundwater mainly belongs to alkali
type and Cl− group and are controlled by rock dominance. A comparison of groundwater quality in relation to drinking water quality standards
proves that most of the water samples are suitable for drinking water purpose whereas groundwater in some areas of the district
has high salinity and high sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), indicating unsuitability for irrigation water and needs adequate
drainage. 相似文献

Seasonal variation of groundwater quality in a part of Guntur District, Andhra Pradesh, India 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
N. Subba Rao 《Environmental Geology》2006,49(3):413-429
The area in Guntur district, Andhra Pradesh, India, is selected to discuss the impact of seasonal variation of groundwater
quality on irrigation and human health, where the agriculture is the main livelihood of rural people and the groundwater is
the main source for irrigation and drinking. Granite gneisses associated with schists and charnockites of the Precambrian
Eastern Ghats underlie the area. Groundwater samples collected seasonally, pre- and post-monsoons, during three years from
forty wells in the area were analyzed for pH, EC, TDS, TA, TH, Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, CO32−, HCO3−, Cl−, SO42−, NO3−and F−. The chemical relationships in Piper’s diagram, Chebotarev’s genetic classification and Gibbs’s diagram suggest that the
groundwaters mainly belong to non-carbonate alkali type and Cl− group, and are controlled by evaporation-dominance, respectively, due to the influence of semi-arid climate, gentle slope,
sluggish drainage conditions, greater water–rock interaction, and anthropogenic activities. A comparison of the groundwater
quality in relation to drinking water quality standards proves that most of the water samples are not suitable for drinking,
especially in post-monsoon period. US Salinity Laboratory’s and Wilcox’s diagrams, and %Na+ used for evaluating the water quality for irrigation suggest that the majority of the groundwater samples are not good for
irrigation in post-monsoon compared to that in pre-monsoon. These conditions are caused due to leaching of salts from the
overlying materials by infiltrating recharge waters. A management plan is suggested for sustainable development of the area. 相似文献

Hydrochemical characteristics of groundwater in the Zhangye Basin, Northwestern China 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The Zhangye Basin, located in arid northwest China, is an important agricultural and industrial center. In recent years rapid
development has created an increased demand for water, which is increasingly being fulfilled by groundwater abstraction. Detailed
knowledge of the geochemical evolution of groundwater and water quality can enhance understanding of the hydrochemical system,
promoting sustainable development and effective management of groundwater resources. To this end, a hydrochemical investigation
was conducted in the Zhangye Basin. Types of shallow groundwater in the Zhangye Basin were found to be HCO3
−, HCO3
−–SO4
2−, SO4
2−–HCO3
−, SO4
2−–Cl−, Cl−–SO4
2− and Cl− . The deep aquifer groundwater type was found to be HCO3−–SO42− throughout the entire area. Ionic ratio and saturation index calculations suggest that silicate rock weathering and evaporation
deposition are the main processes that determine the ionic composition in the study area. The suitability of the groundwater
for irrigation was assessed based on the US Salinity Laboratory salinity classification and the Wilcox diagram. In the study
area, the compositions of the stable isotopes δ18O and δD in groundwater samples were found to range from −4.00 to −9.28‰ and from −34.0 to −65.0‰, respectively. These values
indicate that precipitation is the main recharge source for the groundwater system; some local values indicate high levels
of evaporation. Tritium analysis was used to estimate the ages of the different groundwaters; the tritium values of the groundwater
samples varied from 3.13 to 36.62 TU. The age of the groundwater at depths of less than 30 m is about 5–10 years. The age
of the groundwater at depths of 30–50 m is about 10–23 years. The age of the groundwater at depths of 50–100 m is about 12–29 years.
For groundwater samples at depths of greater than 100 m, the renewal time is about 40 years. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine geochemical properties of groundwater and thermal water in the Misli Basin and to assess
thermal water intrusion into shallow groundwater due to over-extraction. According to isotope and hydrochemical analyses results,
sampled waters can be divided into three groups: cold, thermal, and mixed waters. Only a few waters reach water–rock chemical
equilibrium. Thermal waters in the area are characterized by Na+–Cl−–HCO3−, while the cold waters by CaHCO3 facies. On the basis of isotope results, thermal waters in the Misli basin are meteoric origin. In particular, δ18O and δ2H values of shallow groundwater vary from −10.2 to −12.2‰ and −71.2 to −82‰, while those of thermal waters range from −7.8
to −10.1‰ and from −67 to −74‰, respectively. The tritium values of shallow groundwater having short circulation as young
waters coming from wells that range from 30 to 70 m in depth vary from 10 to 14 TU. The average tritium activity of groundwater
in depths more than 100 m is 1.59 ± 1.16, which indicates long circulation. The rapid infiltration of the precipitation, the
recycling of the evaporated irrigation water, the influence of thermal fluids and the heterogeneity of the aquifer make it
difficult to determine groundwater quality changes in the Misli Basin. Obtained results show that further lowering of the
groundwater table by over-consumption will cause further intrusion of thermal water which resulted in high mineral content
into the fresh groundwater aquifer. Because of this phenomenon, the concentrations of some chemical components which impairs
water quality in terms of irrigation purposes in shallow groundwaters, such as Na+, B, and Cl−, are highy probably expected to increase in time. 相似文献

Major Ion Chemistry in a Freshwater Coastal Lagoon from Southern Brazil (Mangueira Lagoon): Influence of Groundwater Inputs 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

This paper characterizes major ion distributions and investigates whether groundwater exerts a major control on the chemical
functioning of Mangueira Lagoon, a large (90 km long), shallow (∼4–5 m deep), and fresh coastal lagoon in southern Brazil.
Water volumes equivalent to ∼80% of the total annual input are used in the summer for irrigating nearby rice plantations,
the most important regional economic activity. While Na+ and Cl− are the major ions in local groundwater, Na+ and HCO3− are the most enriched ions in lagoon water. The ion concentrations measured in Mangueira Lagoon were homogeneous, except
for a few samples affected by rainwater and groundwater inputs. A shore-normal transect starting at the pump house of a rice
irrigation canal indicated strong groundwater input at this canal. In spite of the small volume contribution (∼2% of precipitation),
groundwater discharge accounts for 50–70% of major ion inputs into the lagoon, with ∼70% of the groundwater inputs being anthropogenically
derived (e.g., from the rice irrigation canals). This may have serious implications for the management of the coastal water
resources from Mangueira Lagoon and other similar areas as groundwater associated with agricultural systems may be contaminated
by fertilizers and pesticides. The results imply that groundwater should not be neglected in dissolved species’ budgets even
when its volume contribution is small. 相似文献
