Groundwater recharge and age-depth profiles of intensively exploited groundwater resources in northwest India

Intensive irrigation in northwest India has led to growing concerns over the sustainability of current and future groundwater ion. Environmental tracers and measurements of groundwater residence times can help quantify the renewal processes. Results from 16 paired locations show the interquartile ra...

description Intensive irrigation in northwest India has led to growing concerns over the sustainability of current and future groundwater ion. Environmental tracers and measurements of groundwater residence times can help quantify the renewal processes. Results from 16 paired locations show the interquartile ranges for residence times in shallow alluvial groundwater (8–50 m deep) to be 1–50 years and significantly less than those from deeper groundwater (76–160 m deep) at 40–170 years. The widespread occurrence of modern tracers in deep groundwater (>60% of sites had >10% modern recharge) suggests that there is low regional aquifer anisotropy and that deep aquifers are recharged by a significant component of recent recharge via vertical leakage. Stable isotope and noble gas results at all depths conform to modern meteoric sources and annual average temperatures, with no evidence of significant regional recharge from canal leakage in this study area close to the Himalayas. Key Points Tracers reveal low regional anisotropy in the sedimentary aquifer system of NW India Local meteoric recharge sources dominate in both shallow and deep aquifers Evidence of enhanced modern recharge at depth due to intensive ion
