Isotope Zusammensetzung Der Mineralwässer Der Mongolei

Abstract

The isotopic composition (D, ¹⁸O, ⁸⁷Sr, ³He) of thermal and mineral waters of Mongolia is discussed. The Sr-isotope ratio depends on the rock's contact. Near the Chubsugul-lake ³He-/⁴He-values are high. A certain similarity between the waters of Mongolia and those of East Siberia can be derived from the obtained data.     

Optimal observation network in geostatistics and underground hydrology

Mathematical models and algorithms for the optimal design of data collection for regionalized variables are presented. The topics considered subsume as a special case optimal drilling strategies in hydrology, the mining industries and other geostatistical applications. In these disciplines an optimal design is a critical consideration since data, can only be obtained through an expensive drilling process.The methods given here are based on the theory of regionalized variables and of kriging. The basis of the methods for locating a single additional data point, and for locating multiple points, is the theory of minimizing uncertainty in parameter estimation. That is, the possible locations of additional points must be determined on the basis of surface analysis with respect to the projected costs of obtaining this data.After a summary of basic kriging techniques, four models are discussed. The first deals with the optimal location problem for a single experimental point, and the second, third and fourth models pertain to the case of multiple additional points. (Unfortunately the repeated application of the single-point model leads only to approximations of the global optima, since the global optima are usually unobtainable as a simple sum of the partial optima.) In the second model, an optimal regular observation network is to be designed to minimize the uncertainty of the estimation process subject to either the given number of additional data, or an upper bound for the cost of the additional data. In the fourth model, the number or cost of additional points is minimized subject to bounded uncertainty conditions. Finally, a numerical example will be used to illustrate the models and algorithms.     

A 15-year record of seasonal variation in the isotopic composition of precipitation water over continental Portugal

The Nuclear and Technological Institute (Instituto Tecnológico e Nuclear—ITN) in cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has been conducting a nationwide survey of hydrogen (²H/¹H) and oxygen (¹⁸O/¹⁶O) isotopic composition of monthly precipitation since 1988. This paper focuses on basic features of spatial and temporal distribution of δ¹⁸O and δ²H in the precipitation over Continental Portugal derived from ITN database. Phenomenological relationships between stable isotopes composition of precipitation and various climate-related parameters (local air temperature, distance to the Atlantic coast, altitude, amount of precipitation) are established and discussed.

A probability distribution for precipitation data analysis

Hydrologic design is often based on assessments of large return interval measures; it is vital to be able to conclude them as precisely as possible. Henceforth, the selection of a probability distribution is very crucial for such cases. In view of this scenario, we propose and study a pliant probability distribution for precipitation data analysis. Some mathematical and statistical properties are analyzed. In order to make stronger predictions and judge the realistic return period, we have also characterized the model via Laplace transformation. We have estimated its parameters via the maximum likelihood estimation and constructed its information matrix for developing the confidence belt of population parameters. Moreover, a real-life setup is also considered by applying the model over precipitation data of diverse regions, including Jacksonville, Florida (USA), Barkhan (Pakistan), British Columbia (Canada), and Alexandria (Egypt). This investigated study is based on various statistical parametric and nonparametric tests, which indicates that the proposed model is one of the better strategies for precipitation data analysis when compared with the famous three-parameter Kappa model.     

Sea and Wind: Multivariate Extremes at Work

Multivariate extreme value theory is used to estimate the probability of failure of a sea-wall near the town of Petten in Noord Holland, The Netherlands. The sample consists of 828 observations of still water levels and wave heights collected during storm events over a 13-year period. The paper sketches the probabilistic and statistical theory behind the estimation procedures used. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A degenerate elliptic-parabolic system arising in competitive contaminant transport

The objective of this work is to study a coupled system of degenerate and nonlinear partial differential equations governing the transport of reactive solutes in groundwater. We show that this system admits a unique weak solution provided the nonlinear adsorption isotherm associated with the reaction process satisfies certain physically reasonable structural conditions, by addressing a more general problem. In addition, we conclude, that the solute concentrations stay non-negative if the source term is componentwise non-negative and investigate numerically the finite speed of propagation of compactly supported initial concentrations, in a two-component test case.

Spatial and temporal characteristics of stable isotopes in the Tarim River Basin

By using 233 isotope samples, we investigated the spatial and temporal variations of δ¹⁸O and δ²H in precipitation and surface water, and the contribution of different water sources in the rivers within the Tarim River Basin (TRB), which receives snow/glacier meltwater, groundwater, and rainfall. Our study revealed a similar seasonal pattern of precipitation δ¹⁸O and δ²H at both the north and south edges of the basin, indicating the dominant effect of westerly air masses in the summer and the combined influence of westerly and polar air masses during the winter, although the southern part showed more complex precipitation processes in the summer. River water in the basin has relatively large temporal variations in both δ¹⁸O and δ²H showing a distinct seasonal pattern with lower isotope values in May than in September. Higher d-excess values throughout the year in the Aksu river and the Tizinafu river suggest that water may be intensively recycled in the mountains of the TRB. Based on isotopic hydrograph separation, we found that groundwater is the main water source that discharges the entire basin although individual rivers vary.
