| Abstract | Irrigation in semi-arid agricultural regions can have profound effects on recharge rates and the quality of shallow groundwater. This study coupled stable isotopes ($^{2}$Η, $^{18}$O), age-tracers ($^{3}$H, CFCs, $^{14}$C), $^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr ratios, and elemental chemistry to determine the sources, residence times, and flowpaths of groundwater and agricultural contaminants (e.g. NO 3 – ) in the Saddle Mountains Basalt Aquifer in central Washington, USA, where over 80% of the population depend on groundwater for domestic use. Results demonstrate the presence of two distinct types of water: contaminated irrigation water and pristine regional groundwater. Contaminated irrigation water has high NO 3 – concentrations (11–116 mg/l), $^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr ratios (0.70659–0.71078) within range of nitrogen-based fertilizers, detectable tritium (2.8–13.4 TU), CFC ages 20–40 years, high δ$^{18}$O values (−16.9 to −13.5‰), and ∼100 percent modern $^{14}$C. Pristine regional groundwater has low NO 3 – concentrations (1–5 mg/l), no detectable tritium (≤0.8 TU), low δ$^{18}$O values (−18.9 to −17.3‰) and $^{14}$C ages from ∼15 to 33 ky BP. Nitrogen and oxygen isotopes of NO 3 – , combined with high dissolved oxygen values, show that denitrification is not an important process in the organic-poor basalt aquifers resulting in transport of high NO 3 – irrigation water to depths greater than 40 m in less than 30 years.L’irrigation dans des régions agricoles semi-arides peut avoir des effets importants sur les taux de recharge et la qualité des aquifères superficiels. Cette étude combine l’utilisation des isotopes stables de l’eau ($^{2}$Η, $^{18}$O), des traceurs d’âges ($^{3}$H, CFCs, $^{14}$C), du rapport $^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr et de la chimie élémentaire afin de déterminer les sources, les temps de résidence et les flux préférentiels des eaux souterraines et des contaminants agricoles (comme le NO 3 – ) dans l’aquifère basaltique de Saddle Mountains, Washington central, Etats-Unis, dont plus de 80% de la population dépend pour un usage domestique. Les résultats montrent la présence de deux types distincts d’eau: l’eau d’irrigation contaminée et l’eau souterraine régionale pure. Les eaux d’irrigation contaminées ont de fortes concentrations en NO 3 – (11–116 mg/l), un rapport $^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr (0.70659–0.71078) dans la gamme des fertilisants azotés, un tritium détectable (2.8–13.4 TU), des âge-CFC de 20–40 ans, un δ$^{18}$O élevé (–16.9 to –13.5‰) et ∼100% de $^{14}$C moderne. Les eaux souterraines régionales pures ont de faibles concentrations en NO 3 – (1–5 mg/l), un tritium non détectable (<0.8 TU), un δ$^{18}$O bas (–18.9 to –17.3‰) et des âges $^{14}$C de ∼15 000 à 33 000 ans BP. Les isotopes de l’azote et de l’oxygène du NO 3 – combinés à de fortes concentrations en oxygène dissous montrent que le transport des eaux d’irrigation très enrichies en NO 3 – en moins de 30 ans à des profondeurs supérieures à 40 m n’est pas un processus important de dénitrification dans les aquifères basaltiques pauvres en matière organique.La irrigación en regiones agrícolas semiáridas pueden tener profundos efectos en los ritmos de recarga y en la calidad del agua subterránea somera. Este estudio acopla los isótopos estables ($^{2}$Η, $^{18}$O), los trazadores de edad ($^{3}$H, CFCs, $^{14}$C), las relaciones $^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr, y la química elemental para determinar las fuentes, tiempos de residencia y trayectorias del agua subterránea y de los contaminantes agrícolas (por ejemplo NO 3 – ) en el acuífero basáltico de Saddle Mountains en Washington central, EEUU, donde más del 80% de la población depende del agua subterránea para usos domésticos. Los resultados demuestran la presencia de dos tipos diferentes de aguas, agua de riego contaminada y agua subterránea regional prístina. Las aguas de riego contaminadas tienen altas concentraciones de NO 3 – (11–116 mg/l), relaciones $^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr (0.70659–0.71078) dentro de los intervalos de fertilizantes nitrogenadas, tritio detectable (2.8–13.4 UT), edades CFC 20 a 40 años, altos valores de δ$^{18}$O (–16.9 a –13.5‰), y ∼100 por ciento de $^{14}$C moderno. El agua subterránea regional prístina tiene baja concentración de NO 3 – (1–5 mg/l), cantidades de tritio no detectables (≤0.8 TU), bajos valores de δ$^{18}$O (–18.9 a –17.3‰) y edades $^{14}$C desde ∼15 a 33 k años AP. Los isótopos de nitrógeno y oxígeno de NO 3 – , combinados con altos valores de oxígeno disuelto, muestran que la desnitrificación no es un proceso importante en los acuíferos basálticos pobremente orgánicos, lo que resulta en el transporte valores altos de NO 3 – en el agua de irrigación a profundidades mayores que 40 m en menos que 30 años.摘要:农业回灌对半干旱地区的地下水补给速率和浅部地下水水质影响很大。本研究综合利用稳定同位素($^{2}$H, $^{18}$O),年龄示踪剂($^{3}$H, CFCs, $^{14}$C),$^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr 比值和水化学技术来确定美国华盛顿中部Saddle山玄武岩含水层的地下水补给来源,滞留时间和流动路径以及农业污染物(如NO 3 – )。地下水为研究区80%以上的人口的生活用水。结果证明了研究区存在污染的灌溉水和原生的区域地下水这两种截然不同的水。污染的灌溉水NO 3 – 浓度较高(11–116 mg/l),$^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr 比值(0.70659–0.71078)在氮肥的变化范围内,氚可检出(2.8–13.4 TU),CFC年龄为20–40岁, $^{18}$O 值高 (–16.9 to –13.5‰), $^{14}$C活度约为100pmC。原生区域地下水NO 3 – 浓度低(1–5 mg/l),无氚检出(≤0.8 TU), $^{18}$O 值低(–18.9 to –17.3‰),$^{14}$C 年龄表明其为15000–33000年以前的老水。NO 3 – 的氮氧同位素以及高溶解氧表明在有机质贫乏的玄武岩含水层中反硝化作用不明显,这也导致在过去30年不到的时间里高NO 3 – 浓度的灌溉水运移至40米以深的含水层中。A rega em regiões agrícolas semi-áridas pode produzir efeitos notórios nas taxas de recarga e na qualidade da água subterrânea freática. Neste estudo foram usados isótopos estáveis acoplados ($^{2}$Η, $^{18}$O), traçadores da idade ($^{3}$H, CFCs, $^{14}$C), rácios $^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr e química elementar para determinar as origens, os tempos de residência e as linhas de fluxo da água subterrânea e de contaminantes agrícolas (como o NO 3 – ) no Aquífero das Montanhas Basálticas de Saddle, no centro de Washington, EUA, onde cerca de 80% da população depende da água subterrânea para uso doméstico. Os resultados revelam a presença de dois tipos de água: água contaminada pela rega e água subterrânea regional não contaminada. As águas contaminadas pela rega têm elevada concentração de NO 3 – (11–116 mg/l), rácios de $^{87}$Sr/$^{86}$Sr (0.70659–0.71078) que estão dentro da gama observada em fertilizantes azotados, trítio detectável (2.8–13.4 TU), idades CFC de 20 a 40 anos, valores elevados de δ$^{18}$O (–16.9 to –13.5‰) e ∼100% $^{14}$C moderno. A água subterrânea regional não contaminada tem baixa concentração de NO 3 – (1–5 mg/l), trítio não detectável (≤0.8 TU), valores baixos de δ$^{18}$O (–18.9 to –17.3‰) e idade de $^{14}$C desde ∼15 a 33 mil anos atrás. Os isótopos de oxigénio e azoto da molécula de NO 3 – , aliados a elevados teores de oxigénio dissolvido, mostram que a desnitrificação não é um processo importante nos aquíferos basálticos pobres em matéria orgânica, o que conduz ao transporte de água de rega rica em NO 3 – até profundidades superiores a 40 m em menos de 30 anos. |

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.
