Distribution of saline and freshwater in groundwater in Thai Binh province and solution for reasonable exploitation / Hiện trạng phân bố mặn – nhạt nước dưới đất tỉnh Thái Bình và đề xuất giải pháp khai thác hợp lý

Tran, Thi Than Thuy, Nguyen, Van Lam, Dang, Huu On 09 December 2015 (has links) (PDF)
Thai Binh is a coastal province of Red River Delta in Vietnam, having administrative boundaries at the river systems and coastlines that cause groundwater quality varies complicatedly. Today in Thai Binh province, the groundwater in Holocene and Pleistocene aquifers is exploited for domestic use. But, beside the quality of groundwater in this region is not uniform, it is interspersed between salt water and fresh water zones in Holocene and Pleistocene aquifers. Nowaday, under the force of groundwater exploitation activity for domestic purposes, agricultural activities, the impact of climate change and sea level rise issues, the quality of distribution of groundwater here change. According to the recent research results, groundwater quality and distribution of salt water - fresh water there have many changes compared with the research results of the Northern Division for Water resources Planning and Investigation in the year 1996. For the the Holocene aquifer (qh), distribution area of salt water zone has been narrowed. Besides, saline cleaning process occurred in some coastal areas in Tien Hai, Thai Thuy and a part of Quynh Phu district. For the Pleistocene aquifer (qp), compared with research result in 1996, the boundaries between saline and fresh water at the present time is not change so much. By assessing the status of the distribution of saline and fresh water zones in groundwater in Thai Binh and the movement of this boundary, author’s research results will be the basis that helps the managers give out reasonable exploiting and sustainable using methods for these natural resources. / Thái Bình là một tỉnh ven biển thuộc vùng châu thổ sông Hồng của Việt Nam, được bao bọc bởi hệ thống sông biển khép kín làm cho chất lượng nước ngầm biến đổi rất phức tạp. Hiện nay, tại Thái Bình có 2 tầng chứa nước chính phục vụ ăn uống sinh hoạt là tầng chứa nước Holocen và tầng chứa nước Pleistocen. Tuy nhiên, chất lượng nước ngầm ở các tầng chứa nước này không đồng đều, có sự phân bố xen kẽ giữa các khoảnh nước mặn và nước nhạt. Hiện nay, dưới tác động của hoạt động dân sinh, sản xuất nông nghiệp, khai thác nước phục vụ sinh hoạt cùng ảnh hưởng của biến đổi khí hậu và sự dâng cao của mực nước biển đã làm thay đổi chất lượng và quy mô phân bố nước ngầm khu vực. Theo những kết quả nghiên cứu mới nhất của tác giả cho thấy diện tích phân bố của các vùng nước mặn - nước nhạt của các tầng chứa nước trên địa bàn tỉnh đã có nhiều thay đổi so với kết quả nghiên cứu trước đây của Liên đoàn Địa chất thủy văn – Địa chất công trình miền Bắc năm 1996. Với tầng chứa nước Holocen, diện tích phân bố các khoảnh nước mặn bị co hẹp và đang có sự nhạt hóa tại một số khu vực ven biển thuộc Huyện Tiền Hải, Thái Thụy và một phần thuộc huyện Quỳnh Phụ. Trong tầng chứa nước Pleistocen (qp), so với kết quả nghiên cứu năm 1996, ranh giới mặn – nhạt tại thời điểm hiện tại đã có sự thay đổi nhưng không lớn. Kết quả nghiên cứu này là cơ sở giúp các nhà quản lý đề xuất giải pháp, phân vùng khai thác và sử dụng hợp lý nguồn tài nguyên thiên nhiên này đặc biệt trước tình trạng khan hiếm nước như hiện nay trên địa bàn tỉnh Thái Bình.

Palaeoenvironmental reconstruction on the basis of Quaternary palaeo dune sequences on Fuerteventura

Roettig, Christopher-Bastian 30 October 2019 (has links)
The volcanic origin of the Canarian Archipelago widely determines the landscape of these islands. Partially in coastal near areas the volcanic rocks are covered by dune fields. The eastern Canary Islands show the largest areas of sand deposits. On northern Fuerteventura sandpits and deep incised gully systems allow broader insight into generations of these archives. The dune material originates from the shallow shelf. Hence, the mineral composition is dominated by calcite and aragonite. The outcrops show the layering of several generations of biogenic carbonate sands which are separated by palaeosurfaces. These surfaces suggest soil-forming processes by their (often) reddish colour. Generally, the occurrence of several palaeosurfaces promises a high potential of those Quaternary dune archives on northern Fuerteventura. Former studies focussed on just few quarries being situated in close distances. Differing formation concepts and contradicting chronologies (Middle to Late Pleistocene versus Late Pleistocene) suggest the need for further investigation of landward palaeo dune sections, resulting in a DFG funded project with regard to palaeo dune sequences within the catchments of two Barrancos on northern Fuerteventura. Firstly, the project called for defining representative sections of the two catchments for the purpose of working out a correlation and deducing a standard profile, both should be based on stratigraphic findings. IRSL dating shall contribute to finally establishing a chrono-stratigraphy. Besides the carbonate sands, the dune archives are influenced by the imprint of volcanic material (tephra, lapilli, and basaltic rock) and Saharan dust. Generally, the archives’ composition and appearance raise several further questions: Are periods of surface formation dependent on reduced sand supply or on changes in climatic conditions? Which soil forming processes contribute to the characteristics of palaeosurface layers? How about the influence of Saharan dust? As dating of lava flows on northern Fuerteventura revealed Middle to Late Pleistocene ages, a further question refers to the relationship of dune formation and volcanic activity. Mainly deduced from findings in the field but also by use of grain size distribution, elemental composition, content of CaCO3, determination of Fed, measurements of rock magnetic parameters, analyses of gastropod associations, micromorphological analyses, determination of quartz content via Morphologi G3-ID measurements, XRD analyses, and IRSL dating, this thesis provides a chronostratigraphy of palaeo dune archives of northern Fuerteventura deduced from a correlation of sections close to the western coast and sections close to the eastern coast. The derived standard profile shows 15 units divided into 5 main sequences. These 5 sequences mainly differ in sand supply and accumulation, in changing humidity, and in imprint of volcanic activity. The chrono-stratigraphy dates back to about 450 ka. Generally, the archives are very site-specific, because features of a stratigraphic layer often change within close distances, depending on connectivity to erosion pathways and distance to sand sources. Micromorphological analyses indicate soil forming processes which are restricted to de- and recalcification and recrystallisation of iron and manganese. Ultimately, the palaeosurfaces are primarily dominated by the characteristics of Saharan dust (silt dominated, yellow to red in colour, containing hematite and goethite). The archives indicate a cyclicity of predominant processes, starting with I) sand accumulation, followed by II) dust accumulation and weak soil formation, leading to III) water-induced relocation. On the basis of this cyclicity a conceptual approach of the archives’ relationship to changes in sea level could be drawn. We assume highest sand supply during starting regression after sea level maxima. With dropping sea level, the distance between the studied sites and the sand source area (which are the gradually exposed shallow shelf areas) increases, leading to reduced sand accumulation. Starting transgression at the end of glacials suggests the lowest potential of sand accumulation. Furthermore, the concept is based on the assumption that with lower sea levels, more precipitation can reach the Canary Islands. Deduced from periods of lowest potential of sand accumulation in combination with periods of increased precipitation, best conditions for predominant dust accumulation and in-situ processes should be given at terminations. Generally, prevalence of palaeosurface formation is related to transgression periods. These periods are in good agreement with increased dust supply, which, in turn, seem to be affected by precession minima (according to Moreno et al., 2001). The predominance of dust accumulation and in-situ processes causes the fining of sediments, leading to reduced morphological resistance and, finally, water-induced relocation. Ultimately, site-specific sand availability seems to determine whether surfaces are exposed for longer durations, whereas the availability of precipitation (and dust) suggests determining the intensity of surface formation. The studied sections indicate a strong relationship to local volcanic activity because lava flows are able to cut off sand pathways and cover former sand source areas. In combination with dated lava flows the findings point to three different periods of volcanic activity which ceased the sand supply gradually. A first period around 180-170 ka, a next period around 135 ka, and a third period after 100 ka but latest around 50 ka which, finally, completely stopped the sand supply. Regarding the northern part of Fuerteventura, the latest period has so far not been described.

Ecological stability of Indo-Pacific coral reefs during Quaternary climatic fluctuations

Mewis, Heike 15 March 2016 (has links)
Rezente Korallenriffe sind einer ganzen Reihe von Bedrohungen ausgesetzt. Das Pleistozän bietet die Gelegenheit Veränderungen an Korallenriffgemeinschaften durch Klimaschwankungen hinweg zu studieren und mit heutigen Riffen zu vergleichen. Am besten sind pleistozäne Riffe in der Karibik untersucht, während aus dem Indo-Pazifik, der über eine deutlich höhere Biodiversität verfügt, bisher nur wenige quantitative Studien vorliegen. Frühere Studien zeigen eine erstaunliche Stabilität und Langlebigkeit der Korallengemeinschaften hinsichtlich Diversität und taxonomischer Zusammensetzung trotz extremer Meeresspiegelschwankungen und starker klimatischer Veränderungen im Quartär. Die vorliegende Arbeit behandelt zwei Regionen, aus der quantitative Daten auf Artniveau über die Zusammensetzung der fossilen Korallengemeinschaften bisher weitestgehend fehlten: das tropische Vanuatu (Südpazifik) und der subtropische Sinai, Ägypten (nördliches Rotes Meer). In Vanuatu sind mindestens 5 fossile Riffterrassen mit einem Alter von etwa 5000 - 400.000 Jahren überliefert, von denen 4 detailliert untersucht werden konnten. Veränderungen in der Diversität wurden sowohl lateral als auch vertikal nur mit unterschiedlichen Riffhabitaten in Verbindung gebracht. Die Riffe waren insgesamt über die Interglaziale bin ins mittlere Holozän hinweg stabil. Nur die Gattung Acropora scheint erst in den letzten 96.000 Jahren häufiger zu werden. In Ägypten wurden Daten aus der jüngsten interglazialen Terrasse (MIS 5e, ~125.000 Jahre) mit rezenten Daten aus dem Roten Meer verglichen und eine Migration von Arten nach Norden während des letzten Interglazials belegt. Diese Beobachtung unterstützt frühere Arbeiten, die eine Verschiebung der Riffdiversität in höhere Breiten verbunden mit einer Abnahme der Diversität in niederen Breiten aufzeigten, sowie Studien, die das nördliche Rote Meer als mögliches Refugium für Korallen im Zuge der weiteren Klimaerwärmung sehen. / The Pleistocene provides the opportunity to study changes of coral reef communities through times of climate change, and to compare fossil to recent reefs. Whereas Pleistocene reefs from the Caribbean are well studied and understood, the much larger Indo-Pacific region with a greater coral diversity is represented by only a few quantitative studies on community ecology. Previous studies observed an astonishing persistence and stability in community composition and diversity throughout several interglacial episodes until today, which is contradictory to the claim that recent coral reefs are especially sensitive to climate change. The present study deals with two Indo-Pacific regions that so far lacked quantitative data of fossil reef communities: tropical Vanuatu (Coral Sea) and subtropical Sinai, Egypt (northern Red Sea). In Vanuatu at least seven fossil reef terraces with ages between 5,000 and 400,000 years are preserved, of which four could be studied in more detail. A great variability was observed among terraces and especially among sub-environments within terraces. Reefs remained stable in terms of diversity throughout the Pleistocene and Holocene but it seems that the dominance of the coral genus Acropora is a fairly recent phenomenon in Vanuatu, because this genus does not play a large role in terraces older than 96,000 years (MIS 5c). In Egypt quantitative and binary data from the last interglacial episode (MIS 5e) were compared with data from the recent Red Sea and adjacent regions. These show a northward migration of coral taxa during the last MIS5e. This observation confirms earlier studies that demonstrated a range expansion of tropical reef communities towards higher latitudes, and supports studies that suggest the northern Red Sea and especially the Gulf of Aqaba as future refuge for corals during climate warming. These results indicate that coral reefs were able to cope with dramatic environmental changes in the absence of anthropogenic impact.
