Differences in the spatial variability of Na+ and K+ ion concentrations in the groundwater sourced in Southern Poland have been analysed. The study was based on selected hydrogeological environments differing in the lithology and geometry of aquifer rock voids. The hydrogeochemical background for Na+ and K+ ions was determined for various hydrogeological environments as well. The hydrogeochemical background ranges obtained do not deviate significantly from the background ranges for groundwater observed in other areas of Poland. The analyses conducted indicate the presence of anomalous concentrations of Na+ and K+ ions in all hydrogeological environments often accompanied with significantly elevated concentrations of Cl- and SO42- ions. Owing to the fact that the data analysed exhibit a distribution deviating considerably from a normal one, non-parametric methods of statistical inference were used. The results obtained indicate statistically significant differences between the variabilities of Na+ and K+ ion concentrations in various hydrogeological environments. The factors responsible for such differences are lithological variability and different groundwater circulation systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
