Widespread chronic kidney disease of unknown etiology (CKDu), which is considered to be influenced by groundwater geochemistry and related factors, is reported in this part of the island. This study, therefore aimed to investigate the geochemical composition and seasonal variations of groundwater in metamorphic aquifers to elucidate possible relationships with the occurrence of CKDu in the dry climatic region. For this study, samples from sixty-six groundwater wells, five surface water sources and one natural spring were analyzed for major anions, cations, trace elements and stable isotopes (δ<sup>2</sup>H and δ<sup>18</sup>O) during pre- and post-monsoon periods. The results showed that the major ions in groundwater mainly derived from the weathering of silicate and carbonate minerals, while seasonal fluctuations significantly influence the geochemical composition. High ionicity in groundwater was found in the pre-monsoon period compared to the post-monsoon. Groundwater isotope compositions confirmed extensive evaporation and possible mixing with surface water during the dry period. Compared to non-CKDu clusters, EC, HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup> and TH were significantly higher in CKDu hotspots, where over 70 % of samples exceeded safe drinking water limits in both sampling seasons. The co-occurrence of significantly high dissolved-Si (mean = 44 mg/L) and F<sup>−</sup> (mean = 0.90 mg/L) levels in hard water (mean = 340 mg/L) showed the potential risk of their combined effect for CKDu incidence in hotspots. The study showed that groundwater in CKDu hotspots is not suitable for direct consumption due to exceeding geochemical contaminants compared to their standards. Therefore, it is recommended to improve groundwater quality and make it suitable for consumption, possibly through artificial aquifer recharge and water treatment methods. This study highlights the potential groundwater-related risk factors for CKDu in the dry zone, demonstrating that groundwater geochemistry is significantly influenced by seasonal fluctuations and underlying geological characteristics in the region.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":362,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hydrology","volume":"657 ","pages":"Article 133154"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143696959","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its leakage to surrounding regions and the related impacts on water resource stability have never been studied under climate warming. This study attempts to meticulously examine the dynamics of groundwater leakage and its implications for terrestrial water storage (TWS) and groundwater stability from 2002 to 2022. A modified water balance approach by introducing the term of groundwater exchange, different from traditional equation for endorheic basin, was utilized to calculate groundwater leakage. The findings indicate that the average annual groundwater leakage amounts to 111.87 × 10<sup>8</sup> m<sup>3</sup>/year, with approximately 89.67 % of this leakage occurring during the warm season from May to October. The study identifies three critical thresholds of the difference between precipitation (P) and evapotranspiration (ET) (P-ET = 17.39 mm, 33.74 mm, and 58.14 mm) necessary for maintaining TWS stability on an annual basis. Under conditions of climate warming, there is a notable increase in groundwater leakage, with an absolute rate of 0.83 mm/year, which is particularly pronounced during the cold season. Based on the average monthly variation of multi-year P-ET, TWS, air temperature, groundwater level and calculated groundwater leakage, it demonstrates that groundwater leakage is significantly influenced by frozen soil conditions, including both permafrost and seasonally frozen soil, which mediate the interactions between groundwater and surface water/soil water. Soil freezing during the cold season from November to April of next year, coupled with sufficient P-ET, plays a crucial role in facilitating groundwater recharge during the warm season. Additionally, according to the basic permafrost and soil properties and calculated changing rate of TWS, the northern edge of Great Lake Depression is identified as potential pathway for increased groundwater leakage. The study concludes that both TWS and groundwater are at considerable risk of decline.

Mass-volume [M(V)] curves and event mean concentrations (EMCs) of suspended solids and dissolved nutrients were compared between pre- and post-restoration periods. There were evidences of nonpoint source pollution in the studied stream regarding all the assessed water parameters in most of the monitored rainfall events.

While such interventions seemed to prevent the occurrence of the first flush for suspended solids, the added structures did not significantly reduce the overall downstream export of sediments and nutrients as evidenced by the EMCs. Therefore, it is essential to manage these structures specifically for solids removal and to align their functioning with processes that target the removal of specific nutrients.
