Abstract We present precipitation isotope data (δ 2 H and δ 18 O values) from 19 stations across the tropics collected 2012 to 2017 under Coordinated Research Project F31004 sponsored by International Atomic Energy Agency. Rainfall samples were daily analysed for stable isotopic ratios of oxygen hydrogen participating laboratories following a common analytical framework. also calculated mean stratiform rainfall area fractions around each station over an 5° x longitude/latitude based on...
Reconnaissance on the suitability of available groundwater resources for irrigation in Thakurgaon District northwestern Bangladesh was done by determining pH, TDS, EC, hardness, alkalinity, major cations and anions. The pH values suggest that water is slightly acidic to strongly basic. dominant cation anion study area are Ca2+, Mg2+ HCO3−, respectively. Calcium bicarbonate, calcium–magnesium–bicarbonate calcium carbonate hydrochemical facies among samples. system may be recharged through...
Major ions and stable isotopes of groundwater in the Cape Coast granitoid complex (G1) Lower Birimian (LB) formations Eastern Region Ghana were evaluated to establish source recharge system. Five major hydrochemical facies identified various rocks study area. They are calcium-magnesium-bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate, chloride calcium waters mixed or non dominant water type. Sodium dominate aqui-fers whereas calcium-magnesium-bicarbonate is hydro-chemical aquifers. The most probable...
This study comprises soils formed on Paleoproterozoic Birimian Basement rocks (poorly graded silty sand, gravely sand and clays) from the unsaturated zone of Densu River Basin, taken a five meter depth. Elemental analysis samples were carried out by Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) to ascertain levels major trace elements (K, Ca, Ti, Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Zr, Sr, Y, Pb, V, Cr, Ga, Ni Rb) determine statistical soil components which control vertical distribution geochemical processes...
Stable isotopes of oxygen-18 and deuterium content in groundwater, surface water rainfall the northern part Densu river basin were studied with main aim identifying origin sources ions groundwater area. The conversion stable to d-excess was also exploited as a complementary tool understand processes recharge. A comparison isotopic data rainfall, Local Meteoric Water Line (LMWL) Global (GMWL) indicates that study area is mainly meteoric few all showing an evidence evaporation. has shown that,...
Agriculture, rapid urbanization and geochemical processes have direct or indirect effects on the chemical composition of groundwater aquifer geochemistry. Hydrochemical investigations which are significant for assessment water quality been carried out to study source dissolve ions in some rural communities northern part Densu River basin. Twenty six samples comprising twenty one boreholes, hand-dug well four surface waters were sampled this study. The analyzed in-situ pH, Conductivity...
Rainwater, groundwater and soil-water samples were analysed to assess geochemistry the origin of salinity in Ochi-Narkwa basin Central Region Ghana. The measured for major ions stable isotopes (δ18O, δ2H δ13C). Cl− content rainwater decreased with distance from coast. hydrochemical facies Na-Cl shallow groundwaters Ca-Mg-HCO3, Ca-Mg-Cl-SO4 deep groundwaters. Groundwater salinization is caused largely by halite dissolution a minor extent silicate weathering seawater intrusion. Stable isotope...
