Trends in anthropogenically driven episodic acidification associated with extended winter snow melt/rain episodes between 1983 and 1998 were investigated for two streams in Nova Scotia, Canada. The anthropogenic contribution to Acid Neutralization Capacity (ANC) was analysed using the Boreal Dilution Model (Bishop et al., 2000) modified by applying a sea-salt correction to all input hydrochemis...

this paper presents results of hydro-chemical processes controlling groundwater chemical composition, using an integrated application of hierarchical cluster analysis and factor analysis of a major ion data set of groundwater from mighan playa aquifer. cluster analysis classified samples into four clusters(a, b, c and d) according to their dominant chemical composition: cluster a (dominant comp...

investigations of lake umbozero, the second largest and the deepest lake of the murmansk region, were carried out to detect and define biogeochemical patterns of distribution of the chalcophile elements (hg, cd, pb, as) in water, sediments and organs and tissues of whitefishes. lake umbozero is affected by emissions and effluents from mining and metallurgical enterprises of the murmansk region,...

this paper gives an account of the implementation of geomorphological, hydrogeological, hydrochemical and isotopic techniques to understand groundwater-surface water interactions in a multiple use area, los padres-la brava corridor (se of buenos aires province, argentina). the isophreatic map reveals a regional flow from the sw to ne sector, and allowed us to define the effluent-influent behav...
