Nitrate pollution has become an environmental problem of global concern. One effective way for controlling the nitrate pollution of water is to identify the pollution source and reduce the input of nitrate. This study traces and quantifies the sources of nitrate contamination to groundwater and surface water in the northeastern suburbs of Beijing, where an emergency groundwater source zone is located. Nitrogen and oxygen stable isotope analysis, geospatial analysis techniques, principal component analysis, correlation analysis, and a Bayesian isotope mixing model were used to achieve our goals. The results show that the main sources of nitrate pollution in groundwater were manure and sewage (M&S) (42.6 %) > soil nitrogen (SN) (26.6 %) > NH 4 + in fertilizer and rain (NHF&R) (24.5 %) > NO 3 − fertilizer (NOF) (5.0 %) > NO 3 − in atmospheric deposition (NAD) (1.3 %), and main sources of nitrate in surface water were M&S (28.8 %) > SN (20.4 %) > NAD (19.8%) > NOF (16.5%) > NHF&R (14.5 %). Due to the high permeability of the aquifer in the study area, there was a strong hydraulic connection between groundwater and surface water. The discharge of treated wastewater (reclaimed water) into the mostly dried river channel in the study area might aggravate nitrate pollution in the groundwater. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
