Abstract:

This study specified a riparian site to research the effect of common surface pollutant sources to groundwater. A field investigation and a series of hydrographic geological drilling work, sampling campaigns were carried out in the riparian site. A systemic study in respect of hydrochemistry was conducted on the basis of these work. The results demonstrate that there is no obvious hydraulic connection between the polluted river and groundwater, and the hydraulic connection between the deep aquifer and shallow aquifer is weak. The chemical compositions of the shallow groundwater are mainly caused by the effect of mineral dissolution and cation exchange processes. The shallow groundwater is vulnerable to surface pollutant sources and anthropogenic activities. The chemical compositions of the deep groundwater are domained by the effect of large scale evolution of hydrogeological environment.

Key words: riparian site, hydraulic connection, hydrochemistry study, surface pollutant source, formation of groundwater composition
