Notizen:
Chemical analyses of wells penetrating the coastal aquifer of Israel indicate that the relative concentrations of sodium, calcium, magnesium, bicarbonate, and hydrogen species deviate considerably from the ideal mixing line between fresh water and sea water, as represented by the concentration of chlorides. Furthermore, deviation patterns were found to be distinctly different for areas of present sea-water intrusion, and areas from which ancient brines are still flushed. These differences, explainable in major part as the combined effects of cation exchange and carbonate equilibria, can in turn be utilized to distinguish between invading and retreating saline-water bodies, and identify their existence at the very beginning of the salinization process. Observed patterns are verified here in major part, with the aid of a single-cell simulation model.
