Title Hydrogeochemistry of deep formation brines in the central Sichuan Basin, China Type Journal Article
Year 1992 Publication Journal of Hydrology Abbreviated Journal
Volume 138 Issue 1 Pages 1-15
Keywords
Abstract Subsurface brines are abundant in the Sichuan Basin, China. Five brine-bearing aquifers have been identified within rocks of Triassic age in the central part of the basin. These are of two types: brine-bearing clastic and brine-bearing carbonate aquifers. Brines in this region have high total dissolved solids and chemical species that are different from those of evaporatively concentrated seawater. Deep formation brines in clastic aquifers, in which evaporites do not exist, are characterized by high concentrations of Ca, Sr, Ba, Br and I, low concentrations of Mg and K, and lack of SO4, and are dominated by the NaCaCl type. Brines in carbonate aquifers, which have interbeds of evaporites, are characterized by high total dissolved solids, low concentrations of Ca, Mg and SO4, and lack of Ba, and are of the NaCl type. The brines in clastic aquifers originate from connate continental sedimentary waters mixed with marine waters; membrane filtration through shales has played an important part in modifying the chemical compositions and increasing the salinity of the brines. Those in carbonate aquifers are bittern marine sedimentary waters, with chemical compositions mainly controlled by precipitation of evaporites.

Title Evaluation of soil salinization in a Mediterranean site (Agoulinitsa district—West Greece) Type Journal Article
Year 2015 Publication Arabian Journal of Geosciences Abbreviated Journal
Volume 8 Issue 3 Pages 1373-1383
Keywords Agricultural soil . Soil quality . Soil salinization
Abstract Soil salinization is an environmental problem having

significant impacts on the soil–water–plant system. This

problem is more frequent in coastal areas due to seawater

intrusion into the land. Assessing the soil salinization is a

critical issue for the agricultural areas situated in the

Mediterranean basin. This paper examines the deterioration

of soil quality in the cultivated land of a Mediterranean site

(Agoulinitsa district—West Greece). Soil samples were collected

in both pre-irrigation and post-irrigation seasons.

Electrical conductivity (EC), pH and the ions Br−, Ca2+, Cl−,

F−, K+, Li+, Mg2+, Na+, NH4

+, NO2

−, NO3

−, PO4

3− and SO4

2−

were determined by the 1:2 (soil/water ratio on weight basis)

method. The salts which were present in both seasons in the

soils of the area studied are KCl, MgCl2, NaCl, CaSO4 and

K2SO4. The wide spatiotemporal variation of EC in the cultivated

land in both seasons demonstrates that soil salinity is

controlled mainly by seawater intrusion and anthropogenic

factors such as the application of salt-rich water which is

directly pumped from the drainage ditches. Seawater intrusion

provides the affected soil with elevated contents of Ca2+, Cl−,

K+, Mg2+, Na+ and SO4

2−. Classification of the soils by using

criteria given by the literature is discussed. Practices to prevent,

or at least ameliorate, salinization in the cultivated land

of Agoulinitsa district are proposed.

Title Global biochemical cycle of boron Type Journal Article
Year 2002 Publication Global Biogeochemical Cycles Abbreviated Journal
Volume 16 Issue Pages 1072
Keywords
Abstract The global Boron (B) cycle is primarily driven by a large flux (1.44 Tg B/yr) through the atmosphere derived from seasalt aerosols. Other significant sources of atmospheric boron include emissions during the combustion of biomass (0.26-0.43 Tg B/yr) and coal, which adds 0.20 Tg B/yr as an anthropogenic contribution. These known inputs to the atmosphere cannot account for the boron removed from the atmosphere during rainfall (3.0 Tg B/yr) and estimated dry deposition (1.3-2.7 Tg B/yr). In addition to atmospheric deposition, rock weathering is a source of boron (0.19 Tg B/yr) for terrestrial ecosystems, and humans mine about 0.31 Tg B/yr from the Earth's crust. More than 4.8 Tg B/yr circulates in the biogeochemical cycle of land plants, and about 0.53-0.63 Tg B/yr is carried from land to sea by rivers. The biogeochemical cycle of boron in the sea includes 4.4 Tg B/yr circulating in the marine biosphere, and an annual loss of 0.47 Tg B/yr to the oceanic crust via a variety of sedimentary processes that collectively remove only a small fraction of the total annual inputs to the oceans. Thus with our current understanding of the global biogeochemistry of B, the atmospheric budget shows outputs > inputs, while the marine compartments show inputs > outputs. Despite these uncertainties, it is clear that the human perturbation of the global B cycle has more than doubled the mobilization of B from the crust and contributes significantly to the B transport in rivers.
