Abstract

Our study presents the hydrochemical data obtained from seven perennial springs located on the Jasov Plateau – Slovak Karst. It is part of the most heavily karstified area in Slovakia extending into northern Hungary. Monthly observations of discharge, temperature and the calcium content have been carried out on perennial springs for 19 months. Since November 2013 the seasonal changes of the basic hydrochemical parameters (water temperature, electric conductivity, pH and major ions), the stable isotope composition and tritium content have been measured on a regular basis. Except for water temperature, no other parameter showed a clear seasonal signal. Statistically significant relationships were discovered between some springs concerning the fluctuation of the various parameters. The stable isotope analyses of the water samples showed that the springs are of meteoric origin, their stable isotope composition varied between -74.9‰ to -62.1‰ and from -10.5‰ to -9.5‰ for δD and δ18O, respectively. The mean residence time of the water varies between 3.5 and 6 years (tritium concentration).

jasovskk - Planina高原(斯洛伐克喀斯特)部分水质参数的时空变化差异

本文介绍了位于雅索夫高原-斯洛伐克喀斯特地区的7个多年生泉水的水化学资料。它是斯洛伐克喀斯特化最严重的地区之一，一直延伸到匈牙利北部。对多年生泉水进行了连续19个月的流量、温度和钙含量的逐月观测。自2013年11月起，定期测量了基本水化学参数(水温、电导率、pH、主要离子)、稳定同位素组成和氚含量的季节变化。除水温外，其他参数均无明显的季节变化。在涉及各参数波动的一些弹簧之间发现了统计上显著的关系。水样稳定同位素分析表明，泉水为大气源，δD和δ18O的稳定同位素组成分别在-74.9‰~ -62.1‰和-10.5‰~ -9.5‰之间变化。水的平均停留时间在3.5年至6年之间(氚浓度)。
