Hydrogeochemical indications of regional flow in the Lower Greensand aquifer of the London Basin

Autor: Melinda Lewis, W. George Darling

Publikováno v: Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology. 55

The Lower Greensand (LGS) forms the second most important aquifer in the London Basin but, being largely absent beneath the city itself, has received much less attention than the ubiquitous overlying Chalk aquifer. While the general directions of gro

Thermal groundwaters of the UK: geochemical indications of flow, vulnerability and possible threat to the shallow hydrosphere

Autor: W. George Darling

Three types of thermal groundwater are known from the UK: warm springs (≤45°C), mine inflows (≤50°C) and deep basin waters (≤80°C). The warm springs depend on Carboniferous Limestone conveying water to sufficient depth (600–3000 m) to acqu

A long-term study of stable isotopes as tracers of processes governing water flow and quality in a lowland river basin: the upper Thames, UK

Autor: W. George Darling, Michael J. Bowes

Publikováno v: Hydrological Processes. 30:2178-2195

A long-term study of O, H and C stable isotopes has been undertaken on river waters across the 7000 km2 upper Thames lowland river basin in the southern UK. During the period, flow conditions ranged from drought to flood. A 10-year monthly record (20
