  Title Coastal groundwater salinization: Focus on the vertical variability in a multi-layered aquifer through a multi-isotope fingerprinting (Roussillon Basin, France) Type Journal Article
  Year 2016 Publication Science of The Total Environment Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 566-567 Issue Pages (down) 398-415  
  Keywords Groundwater salinization, Coastal aquifer, Roussillon Basin, Isotopes, Westbay System, Barcarès and Canet sites  
  Abstract The Roussillon sedimentary Basin (South France) is a complex multi-layered aquifer, close to the Mediterranean Sea facing seasonally increases of water abstraction and salinization issues. We report geochemical and isotopic vertical variability in this aquifer using groundwater sampled with a Westbay System® at two coastal monitoring sites: Barcarès and Canet. The Westbay sampling allows pointing out and explaining the variation of water quality along vertical profiles, both in productive layers and in the less permeable ones where most of the chemical processes are susceptible to take place. The aquifer layers are not equally impacted by salinization, with electrical conductivity ranging from 460 to 43,000μS·cm−1. The δ2H–δ18O signatures show mixing between seawater and freshwater components with long water residence time as evidenced by the lack of contribution from modern water using 3H, 14C and CFCs/SF6. S(SO4) isotopes also evidence seawater contribution but some signatures can be related to oxidation of pyrite and/or organically bounded S. In the upper layers 87Sr/86Sr ratios are close to that of seawater and then increase with depth, reflecting water–rock interaction with argillaceous formations while punctual low values reflect interaction with carbonate. Boron isotopes highlight secondary processes such as adsorption/desorption onto clays in addition to mixings. At the Barcarès site (120m deep), the high salinity in some layers appear to be related neither to present day seawater intrusion, nor to Salses-Leucate lagoonwater intrusion. Groundwater chemical composition thus highlights binary mixing between fresh groundwater and inherited salty water together with cation exchange processes, water–rock interactions and, locally, sedimentary organic matter mineralisation probably enhanced by pyrite oxidation. Finally, combining the results of this study and those of Caballero and Ladouche (2015), we discuss the possible future evolution of this aquifer system under global change, as well as the potential management strategies needed to preserve quantitatively and qualitatively this water resource.

  Title Hydrogeochemical and isotopic evidence of groundwater salinization in a coastal aquifer: a case study in Jeju volcanic island, Korea Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Journal of Hydrology Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 270 Issue 3 Pages (down) 282-294  
  Keywords Jeju volcanic island, Coastal aquifer, Groundwater salinization, Hydrogeochemistry, Environmental isotopes, Mixing process  
  Abstract In order to identify the origin of saline groundwater in the eastern part of Jeju volcanic island, Korea, a hydrogeochemical and isotopic study has been carried out for 18 observation wells located in east and southeast coastal regions. The total dissolved solid contents of groundwaters are highly variable (77–21,782mg/l). Oxygen, hydrogen, sulfur, and strontium isotopic data clearly show that the saline water results from mixing of groundwater with seawater. Strontium isotopic compositions and Br/Cl and I/Cl ratios strongly suggest that the source of salinity is modern seawater intrusion. Hydrogeochemical characteristics based on bivariate diagrams of major and minor ions show that changes in the chemical composition of groundwater are mainly controlled by the salinization process followed by cation-exchange reactions. The highly permeable aquifers at the east coastal region are characterized by low hydraulic gradient and discharge rate and high hydraulic conductivity as compared with other regions. These properties enhance the salinization of groundwater observed in the study area. Based on the Cl, Br, and δ18O data, seawater was determined to have intruded inland some 2.5km from the coastline. Considering the poor correlation of sampling depth and Cl concentrations observed, the position of seawater-freshwater interface is not uniformly distributed in the study area, due to heterogeneities of the basaltic aquifers.

  Title Agricultural impact on Mediterranean alluvial aquifers: do groundwater communities respond? Type Journal Article
  Year 2013 Publication Fundamental and Applied Limnology/Archiv für Hydrobiologie Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 182 Issue 4 Pages (down) 271-282  
  Keywords alluvial aquifers, groundwater, stygobiont, nitrate, overexploitation  
  Abstract In Mediterranean countries agricultural development heavily depends on groundwater availability due

to arid and semi-arid climate and poor surface-water resources. Agriculture represents one of the most relevant

pressures which generate impacts in alluvial aquifers by means of fertilizers and pesticides usage and groundwater

overexploitation. Until now, very few studies have addressed the ecological response of groundwater fauna to

groundwater contamination and overexploitation due to agricultural practices. We investigated a Mediterranean

alluvial aquifer heavily affected by nitrates contamination and groundwater abstraction stress due to crop irrigation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity of groundwater communities to (a) groundwater nitrate

contamination, (b) groundwater abstraction due to irrigation practices, and (c) saltwater intrusion. The present

work suggests that nitrate concentration lower than 150 mg l

–1 is not an immediate threat to groundwater biodiversity in alluvial aquifers. This conclusion must be carefully considered in the light of the total lack of knowledge

of the effects of long-term nitrate pollution on the groundwater biota. Moreover, local extinctions of less tolerant

species, prior to monitoring, cannot be ruled out. Conversely, species abundances in ground water are affected by

groundwater withdrawal, but species richness may be less sensitive. This result is attributable to the disappearance

of saturated microhabitats and to the depletion of fine unconsolidated sediments, reducing the surface available

to bacterial biofilm, which represent the trophic resource for several groundwater invertebrates and where the

main aquifer self-purification processes, such as denitrification, take place. Saltwater intrusion seems not to affect

groundwater species at the values measured in this coastal aquifer.

  Title A hydrogeochemistry and multi-isotope (Sr, O, H, and C) study of groundwater salinity origin and hydrogeochemcial processes in the shallow confined aquifer of northern Yangtze River downstream coastal plain, China Type Journal Article
  Year 2017 Publication Applied Geochemistry Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 86 Issue Pages (down) 49-58  
  Keywords Coastal confined groundwater, Salinity, Hydrogeochemcial processes, Multiple environmental tracers  
  Abstract Economically developed coastal areas have a high water demand, and their groundwater resources can be threatened by salinization. Many methods and tracers have been used to discriminate the source of salinization because a single method does not yield reliable results. In this paper, the shallow confined coastal plain aquifer, north of the downstream Yangtze River in China, is used as a case study to investigate the origin of the salinity and the relevant geochemical processes for this aquifer. Multiple environmental tracers of major ions, minor ions (Br−, I−), and isotopes (18O, 2H, 13C, 87Sr, 3H, 14C) were used so as to provide reliable conclusions. The TDS distribution of the aquifer has an increasing trend, from below 500 mg/L in the inland areas to more than 20,000 mg/L around the southeast coastline. The water chemical type evolves from HCO3-Ca to Cl-Na as the TDS increases. The results suggest that the groundwater salinity is influenced by seawater intrusion. The seawater proportions in the groundwater samples range from 0.07% to 94.41% and show the same spatial distribution pattern as TDS. The 3H and 14C values show that the highest salinity was mainly caused by a seawater transgression around 6000a B.P. The aquifer is also affected by other hydrogeochemical processes: base exchange has enriched Ca2+ and depleted K+ and Na+, sulfate reduction has reduced the concentration of SO42− and enriched HCO3−, and iodine-rich organic matter decomposition has enriched the concentration of I−. The iodine enrichment also suggests paleo-seawater intrusion. In addition, the precipitation of carbonate minerals has decreased the concentration of Ca2+, Mg2+, and HCO3−, albeit to a limited extent.
