Impact of artificial recharge on dissolved noble gases in groundwater in California.
Dissolved noble gas concentrations in groundwater can provide valuable information on recharge temperatures and enable 3H-3He age-dating with the use of physically based interpretive models. This study presents a large (905 samples) data set of dissolved noble gas concentrations from drinking water supply wells throughout California, representing a range of physiographic, climatic, and water ma...
متن کاملExcess Air in Groundwater as a Potential Indicator of past Environmental Changes
Dissolved noble gases in groundwater are used to reconstruct paleotemperature, but also yield information about "excess air", a component of dissolved gases in excess of solubility equilibrium, derived from dissolution of trapped air in the ground. A good characterization of the excess air component is necessary not only to obtain reliable noble gas temperatures, but also to investigate the pot...
متن کاملSeasonal variation of high elevation groundwater recharge as indicator of climate response
Keywords: Climate impacts Groundwater hydrology Infiltration Water supply Isotopes s u m m a r y High elevation groundwater basins in the western United States are facing changes in the amount and timing of snowmelt due to climate change. The objective of this study is to examine seasonal variability in a high elevation aquifer (Martis Valley Watershed near Truckee, CA) by analyzing (1) tritium...
متن کاملInfluence of volcanic history on groundwater patterns on the west slope of the Oregon High Cascades
[1] Spring systems on the west slope of the Oregon High Cascades exhibit complex relationships among modern topography, lava flow geometries, and groundwater flow patterns. Seven cold springs were continuously monitored for discharge and temperature in the 2004 water year, and they were periodically sampled for dO, dD, tritium, and dissolved noble gases. Anomalously high unit discharges suggest...
متن کاملPii: S0022-1694(99)00069-4
Noble gas isotopes (He, He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe), tritium (H), chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and dissolved oxygen (O2) were seasonally measured in a small groundwater system recharged by infiltration of river water at Linsental, northeastern Switzerland. All Groundwater samples contained an excess of atmospheric noble gases (‘excess air’) usually with an elemental composition equal to air. The concentr...
