Hydrogeochemical and isotopic constraints on the origins of dryland salinity, Murray Basin, Victoria, Australia

Combined hydrogeological and hydrogeochemical data allow flow systems and the origins of solutes in the Honeysuckle Creek area of the southeastern Murray Basin, which is an area affected by dryland salinity, to be constrained. Recharge occurs both on the uplands that are composed of fractured Violet...

Zusammenfassung:	Combined hydrogeological and hydrogeochemical data allow flow systems and the origins of solutes in the Honeysuckle Creek area of the southeastern Murray Basin, which is an area affected by dryland salinity, to be constrained. Recharge occurs both on the uplands that are composed of fractured Violet Town Volcanic rocks and the Riverine Plain that comprises sediments of the Shepparton and Coonambidgal Formations. Groundwater from the Violet Town Volcanics has low salinity (
