Biogeochemical processes were investigated in alpine river—Kamni?ka Bistrica River (North Slovenia), which represents an ideal natural laboratory for studying anthropogenic impacts in catchments with high weathering capacity. The Kamni?ka Bistrica River water chemistry is dominated by HCO3 ?, Ca2+ and Mg2+, and Ca2+/Mg2+ molar ratios indicate that calcite weathering is the major source of solutes to the river system. The Kamni?ka Bistrica River and its tributaries are oversaturated with respect to calcite and dolomite. pCO2 concentrations were on average up to 25 times over atmospheric values. δ13CDIC values ranged from ?12.7 to ?2.7 ‰, controlled by biogeochemical processes in the catchment and within the stream; carbonate dissolution is the most important biogeochemical process affecting carbon isotopes in the upstream portions of the catchment, while carbonate dissolution and organic matter degradation control carbon isotope signatures downstream. Contributions of DIC from various biogeochemical processes were determined using steady state equations for different sampling seasons at the mouth of the Kamni?ka Bistrica River; results indicate that: (1) 1.9–2.2 % of DIC came from exchange with atmospheric CO2, (2) 0–27.5 % of DIC came from degradation of organic matter, (3) 25.4–41.5 % of DIC came from dissolution of carbonates and (4) 33–85 % of DIC came from tributaries. δ15N values of nitrate ranged from ?5.2 ‰ at the headwater spring to 9.8 ‰ in the lower reaches. Higher δ15N values in the lower reaches of the river suggest anthropogenic pollution from agricultural activity. Based on seasonal and longitudinal changes of chemical and isotopic indicators of carbon and nitrogen in Kamni?ka Bistrica River, it can be concluded that seasonal changes are observed (higher concentrations are detected at low discharge conditions) and it turns from pristine alpine river to anthropogenic influenced river in central flow. 相似文献

Hydrogeochemical and Stable Isotope Characteristics of the River Idrijca (Slovenia), the Boundary Watershed Between the Adriatic and Black Seas 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
The hydrogeochemical and isotope characteristics of the River Idrijca, Slovenia, where the world’s second largest mercury
(Hg) mine is located, were investigated. The River Idrijca, a typical steep mountain river, has an HCO3
−–Ca2+–Mg2+ chemical composition. Its Ca2+/Mg2+ molar ratio indicates that dolomite weathering prevails in the watershed. The River Idrijca and its tributaries are oversaturated
with respect to calcite and dolomite. The pCO2 pressure is up to 13 times over atmospheric pressure and represents a source of CO2 to the atmosphere. δ18O values in river water indicate primary control from precipitation and enrichment of the heavy oxygen isotope of infiltrating
water recharging the River Idrijca from its slopes. The δ13CDIC values range from −10.8 to −6.6‰ and are controlled by biogeochemical processes in terrestrial environments and in the stream:
(1) exchange with atmospheric CO2, (2) degradation of organic matter, (3) dissolution of carbonates, and (4) tributaries. The contributions of these inputs
were calculated according to steady state equations and are estimated to be—11%:19%:30%:61% in the autumn and 0%:26%:39%:35%
in the spring sampling seasons. 相似文献

The hydrogeochemistry and isotope geochemistry of groundwater from 85 wells in fractured dolomite aquifers of Central Slovenia were investigated. This groundwater represents waters strongly influenced by chemical weathering of dolomite with an average of δ13CCARB value of +2.2 ‰. The major groundwater geochemical composition is HCO3 ? > Ca2+ > Mg2+. Several differences in hydrogeochemical properties among the classes of dolomites were observed when they were divided based on their age and sedimentological properties, with a clear distinction of pure dolomites exhibiting high Mg2+/Ca2+ ratios and low Na+, K+ and Si values. Trace element and nutrient concentrations (SO4 2?, NO3 ?) were low, implying that karstic and fractured dolomite aquifers are of good quality to be used as tap water. Groundwater was generally slightly oversaturated with respect to calcite and dolomite, and dissolved CO2 was up to 46 times supersaturated relative to the atmosphere. The isotopic composition of oxygen (δ18OH2O), hydrogen (δDH2O) and tritium ranged from ?10.3 to ?8.4 ‰, from ?68.5 to ?52.7 ‰ and from 3.5 TU to 10.5 TU, respectively. δ18O and δD values fell between the GMWL (Global Meteoric Water Line) and the MMWL (Mediterranean Meteoric Water Line) and indicate recharge from precipitation with little evaporation. The tritium activity in groundwater suggests that groundwater is generally younger than 50 years. δ13CDIC values ranged from ?14.6 to ?9.3 ‰ and indicated groundwater with a contribution of degraded organic matter/dissolved inorganic carbon in the aquifer. The mass balances for groundwater interacting with carbonate rocks suggested that carbonate dissolution contributes from 43.7 to 65.4 % and degradation of organic matter from 34.6 to 56.3 %. 相似文献

The relative contributions of dolomite to calcite weathering related to riverine fluxes are investigated on a highly resolved spatial scale in the diverse watersheds of Slovenia, which previous work has shown have some of the highest carbonate-weathering intensities in the world and suggests that dolomite weathering is favored over limestone weathering in mixed carbonate watersheds. The forested Sava and So?a River watersheds of Slovenia with their headwaters in the Julian Alps drain alpine regions with thin soils (<30 cm) and dinaric karst regions with thicker soils (0 to greater than 70 cm) all developed over bedded Mesozoic carbonates (limestone and dolomite), and siliclastic sediments is the ideal location for examining temperate zone carbonate weathering. This study extends previous work, presenting geochemical data on source springs and documenting downstream geochemical fluctuations within tributaries of the Sava and So?a Rivers. More refined sampling strategies of springs and discrete drainages permit directly linking the stream Mg2+/Ca2+ ratios to the local bedrock lithology and the HCO3 ? concentrations to the relative soil depths of the tributary drainages. Due to differences in carbonate source lithologies of springs and tributary streams, calcite and dolomite weathering end members can be identified. The Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio of the main channel of the Sava River indicates that the HCO3 ? concentration can be attributed to nearly equal proportions by mass of dolomite relative to calcite mineral weathering (e.g., Mg2+/Ca2+ mole ratio of 0.33). The HCO3 ? concentration and pCO2 values increase as soil thickness and alluvium increase for discrete spring samples, which are near equilibrium with respect to calcite. Typically, this results in approximately 1.5 meq/l increase in HCO3 ? from the alpine to the dinaric karst regions. Streams in general do not change in HCO3 ?, Mg2+/Ca2+, or Mg2+/HCO3 ? concentrations down course, but warming and degassing of CO2 produce high degrees of supersaturation with respect to calcite. Carbonate-weathering intensity (mmol/km2-s) is highest within the alpine regions where stream discharge values range widely to extreme values during spring snowmelt. Overall, the elemental fluxes of HCO3 ?, Ca2+, and Mg2+ from the tributary watersheds are proportional to the total water flux because carbonates dissolve rapidly to near equilibrium. Importantly, dolomite weathers preferentially over calcite except for pure limestone catchments. 相似文献

The hydrogeochemical and carbon isotope characteristics of the Krka River, Slovenia, were investigated to estimate the carbon transfer from the land ecosystem in the watershed. During the 3-year sampling period (2008–2010), temperature, pH, electrical conductivity, major ion content, dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and dissolved organic carbon content, and the isotopic composition of DIC (δ13CDIC) were monitored in the main stream of the Krka River and its tributaries. The major solute composition of analysed waters is dominated by an input of HCO3 ?, Ca2+ and Mg2+ originating from carbonate dissolution. The Mg2+/Ca2+ and Mg2+/HCO3 ? molar ratio values ranging from 0.24 to 0.71 and 0.05 to 0.30, respectively, indicate a high degree of dolomite dissolution relative to calcite. Dissolved CO2 concentrations in the river were up to tenfold supersaturated relative to the atmosphere, resulting in supersaturation with respect to calcite and degassing of CO2 downstream. The δ13C values in river water range from ?15.6 to ?9.4 ‰ and are controlled by the input of tributaries, exchange with atmospheric CO2, degradation of organic matter, and dissolution of carbonates. The mass balance calculations for riverine DIC suggest that the contribution from carbonate dissolution and degradation of organic matter have major influence, whereas the exchange with atmospheric CO2 has minor influence on the inorganic carbon pool in the Krka River. 相似文献

The geochemical and isotopic composition of surface waters and groundwater in the Velenje Basin, Slovenia, was investigated seasonally to determine the relationship between major aquifers and surface waters, water–rock reactions, relative ages of groundwater, and biogeochemical processes. Groundwater in the Triassic aquifer is dominated by HCO3 –, Ca2+, Mg2+ and δ13CDIC indicating degradation of soil organic matter and dissolution of carbonate minerals, similar to surface waters. In addition, groundwater in the Triassic aquifer has δ18O and δD values that plot near surface waters on the local and global meteoric water lines, and detectable tritium, likely reflecting recent (<50 years) recharge. In contrast, groundwater in the Pliocene aquifers is enriched in Mg2+, Na+, Ca2+, K+, and Si, and has high alkalinity and δ13CDIC values, with low SO4 2– and NO3 – concentrations. These waters have likely been influenced by sulfate reduction and microbial methanogenesis associated with coal seams and dissolution of feldspars and Mg-rich clay minerals. Pliocene aquifer waters are also depleted in 18O and 2H, and have 3H concentrations near the detection limit, suggesting these waters are older, had a different recharge source, and have not mixed extensively with groundwater in the Triassic aquifer. 相似文献
