A Stable Isotope-hydrochemical Approach to Assess Groundwater Chemistry and Recharge Dynamics in Southwest Delhi, India
Groundwater is an essential supply of freshwater in the peri-urban area of Southwest Delhi, India. This study is novel in its dual-seasonal (pre-monsoon and post-monsoon) analysis of groundwater chemistry and recharge dynamics using stable isotope (δ2H and δ1⁸O) at different depths which highlighting the groundwater-drain water (GR-DRW) interactions. The findings indicated that both groundwater (EC range: 262–9581 μS/cm in pre-monsoon, 763–8600 μS/cm in post-monsoon) and drain water (ECrange:2120- 5326 μS/cm in pre-monsoon,1935–3600 μS/cm in post-monsoon) had salinity beyond the permissible limit in both the seasons.The observed dominance of anions in groundwater and drain water was in the order of HCO3− > Cl− > NO3− > SO42−, while the cations followed the order Na+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ > K+. The stable isotopic data for the deep groundwater shows the most depleted δ18O (-9.13‰) and δ2H (-54.17‰) values, indicating minimal evaporation and longer residence times. Moderate depth groundwater has δ18O and δ2H value shows less depleted (-6.47‰ and -45.09‰). Shallow groundwater (δ18O: -6.17‰ to -3.23‰, δ2H: -42.75‰ to -31.02‰) and drain water (δ18O: -6.91‰ to -2.21‰, δ2H: -48.02‰ to -35.52‰) exhibit enriched isotopic values due to evaporation in the pre-monsoon season. In the pre-monsoon season, recent recharge from precipitation or snowmelt slightly influences isotopic values, with deep groundwater at δ18O: -7.85‰ and δ2H: -47.13‰, and shallow groundwater at δ18O: -5.66‰ to -1.82‰ and δ2H: -48.57‰ to -39.91‰. Furthermore, the analysis of d-excess values reveals that deep groundwater has the highest d-excess (21.27‰) during pre-monsoon, indicating minimal evaporation. Shallow groundwater (-0.70‰) and drain water (-4.03‰) show negative d-excess, suggesting evaporative enrichment. In post-monsoon, d-excess values decrease overall, with drain water (-16.08‰) showing significant evaporation effects. Therefore, this study is crucial for managing groundwater resources in peri-urban areas of Southwest Delhi, where the freshwater scarcity is a growing concern.
期刊介绍:
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution is an international, interdisciplinary journal on all aspects of pollution and solutions to pollution in the biosphere. This includes chemical, physical and biological processes affecting flora, fauna, water, air and soil in relation to environmental pollution. Because of its scope, the subject areas are diverse and include all aspects of pollution sources, transport, deposition, accumulation, acid precipitation, atmospheric pollution, metals, aquatic pollution including marine pollution and ground water, waste water, pesticides, soil pollution, sewage, sediment pollution, forestry pollution, effects of pollutants on humans, vegetation, fish, aquatic species, micro-organisms, and animals, environmental and molecular toxicology applied to pollution research, biosensors, global and climate change, ecological implications of pollution and pollution models. Water, Air, & Soil Pollution also publishes manuscripts on novel methods used in the study of environmental pollutants, environmental toxicology, environmental biology, novel environmental engineering related to pollution, biodiversity as influenced by pollution, novel environmental biotechnology as applied to pollution (e.g. bioremediation), environmental modelling and biorestoration of polluted environments.
Articles should not be submitted that are of local interest only and do not advance international knowledge in environmental pollution and solutions to pollution. Articles that simply replicate known knowledge or techniques while researching a local pollution problem will normally be rejected without review. Submitted articles must have up-to-date references, employ the correct experimental replication and statistical analysis, where needed and contain a significant contribution to new knowledge. The publishing and editorial team sincerely appreciate your cooperation.
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution publishes research papers; review articles; mini-reviews; and book reviews.
