| Abstract | In light of the increasing deterioration of groundwater supplies in Rajasthan, India, rainwater harvesting practices in southern Rajasthan were studied to determine the effects of artificially recharged groundwater on the supply and quality of local groundwater. A physical and geochemical investigation utilizing environmental tracers (δ$^{18}$O and Cl$^{–}$), groundwater level and groundwater quality measurements, and geological surveys was conducted with two objectives: (1) to quantify the proportion of artificially recharged groundwater in wells located near rainwater harvesting structures and (2) to examine potential effects of artificial recharge on the quality of groundwater in these wells. A geochemical mixing model revealed that the proportion of artificial recharge in these wells ranged from 0 to 75%. Groundwater tracer, water table, and geological data provided evidence of complex groundwater flow and were used to explain the spatial distribution of artificial recharge. Furthermore, wells receiving artificial recharge had improved groundwater quality. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference between the water quality in these wells and wells determined not to receive artificial recharge, for electrical conductivity and SO 4 – . The findings from this study provide quantitative evidence that rainwater harvesting structures in southern Rajasthan influence the groundwater supply and quality of nearby wells by artificially recharging local groundwater.Par suite de la détérioration croissante des ressources en eau souterraine, on a étudié le mode de réalimentation d’une nappe du Sud Rajasthan, Inde, pour évaluer localement les effets quantitatifs et qualitatifs de la recharge artificielle. Des investigations avec levers géologiques, études physique et géochimique utilisant des traceurs environnementaux (δ$^{18}$O and Cl$^{–}$), étude de niveau et de qualité de la nappe, ont été menées avec deux objectifs: (1) évaluer la proportion d’eau de recharge artificielle dans les puits proches des aires de recharge et (2) examiner l’incidence de la recharge artificielle sur la qualité de l’eau de ces puits. Un modèle géochimique multiparamétrique a révélé que la proportion de recharge artificielle dans ces puits s’échelonne de 0 à 75%. Les traçages, la piézométrie et les données géologiques ont montré la complexité de écoulements souterrains et permis de comprendre la distribution spatiale de la recharge. Par ailleurs, les puits rechargés artificiellement présentent une eau de meilleur qualité. L’analyse statistique a révélé une importante différence de qualité entre ces puits et ceux connus pour ne pas recevoir de recharge artificielle, en termes de conductivité électrique et de concentration SO 4 – . Les résultats quantitatifs de cette étude montrent que la réalimentation artificielle de nappe au Sud Rajasthan influence la productivité et la qualité de l’eau des puits proches de la zone de recharge.A la luz del creciente deterioro del abastecimiento de aguas subterráneas en Rajasthan, India, las prácticas de recolección de agua de lluvia en el sur de Rajasthan fueron estudiadas para determinar los efectos de las aguas recargadas artificialmente en el abastecimiento y calidad del agua subterránea local. Una investigación física y geoquímica utilizando medidas de trazadores ambientales (δ$^{18}$O and Cl$^{–}$), niveles de aguas subterráneas y de calidad de las aguas subterráneas, y relevamientos geológicos fueron llevados a cabo con dos objetivos: (1) cuantificar la proporción de agua subterránea recargada artificialmente en pozos localizados cerca de estructuras de recolección de agua de lluvia y (2) examinar los efectos potenciales de la recarga artificial sobre la calidad del agua subterránea de estos pozos. Un modelo de mezcla geoquímica reveló que la proporción de recarga artificial en estos pozos variaba de 0 a 75%. Los trazadores de agua subterránea, el nivel freático, y los datos geológicos proveyeron evidencias de un flujo subterráneo complejo y fueron usados para explicar la distribución espacial de la recarga artificial. Además, los pozos receptores de la recarga artificial había mejorado la calidad del agua subterránea. Los análisis estadísticos revelaron una significativa diferencia entre la calidad del agua en estos pozos y aquellos que se determinaron que no recibieron recarga artificial, desde el punto de vista de la conductividad eléctrica y los sulfatos. Los hallazgos de este estudio proveen evidencias cuantitativas que la estructura recolectoras de agua de lluvia en el sur de Rajasthan influyen en el abastecimiento de agua subterránea y en la calidad de los pozos cercanos por el agua subterránea local recargada artificialmente.鉴于印度Rajasthan省的地下水供水能力持续降低, 对Rajasthan省南部的雨水收集试验进行了研究, 以确定人工地下水补给对当地地下水供应和水质的影响。 应用环境示踪剂 (δ$^{18}$O和Cl$^{–}$)、地下水位和地下水质观测、地质调查等物理和地球化学调查方法, 达到了两个目标: (1) 确定雨水收集设备附近井中地下水人工补给的比例(2) 研究人工补给对这些井中地下水水质的潜在影响。地球化学混合模式揭示, 这些井中人工补给比例为0到75%。地下水示踪剂、地下水位和地质资料提供了复杂的地下水流的证据, 并用来解释人工补给的空间分布。另外, 接受人工补给的井中地下水水质有所改善。 通过电导率和SO 4 – 的统计分析, 这些井的水质和那些没有接受人工补给的井存在显著差异。本次研究结果提供了定量证据, 证明Rajasthan省南部的雨水收集设备通过人工补给当地地下水, 影响到周围井的地下水供水和水质。Face à crescente deterioração do abastecimento de águas subterrâneas no Rajastão, Índia, foram estudadas práticas de armazenamento de águas pluviais no sul do Rajastão, para determinar os efeitos da recarga artificial no abastecimento e qualidade das águas subterrâneas locais. Foi conduzida uma investigação físico-química baseada em traçadores ambientais (δ$^{18}$O e Cl$^{–}$), em medições do nível e da qualidade da água subterrânea, e em levantamentos geológicos, com dois objectivos: (1) quantificar a proporção de águas subterrâneas de infiltração artificial em captações próximas de estruturas de armazenamento de águas pluviais e (2) avaliar os potenciais efeitos da recarga artificial na qualidade da água dessas captações. Um modelo geoquímico de mistura revelou que a proporção de recarga artificial nas captações variava entre 0 e 75%. Informações obtidas a partir dos traçadores, do nível freático e dos dados geológicos, forneceram indícios sobre a complexidade do fluxo de água subterrânea, e foram usadas para explicar a distribuição espacial da recarga artificial. Adicionalmente, constatou-se um incremento da qualidade da água subterrânea das captações influenciadas pela recarga artificial. Uma análise estatística para a condutividade eléctrica e para o SO 4 – demonstrou uma diferença significativa entre a qualidade da água naquelas captações e nas captações que não sofreram recarga artificial. Os resultados deste estudo fornecem evidências quantitativas de que as estruturas de armazenamento de água pluvial no sul do Rajastão influenciam o abastecimento e a qualidade das águas subterrâneas de captações, através da recarga artificial das águas subterrâneas locais. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
