The comparison of hydrogeochemical conditions of Jurassic-Cretaceous sediments of Koltogor- Tolkinskaya suture zone and the adjacent tectonic structures was based on the results of the chemical composition analysis of almost 1,500 groundwater samples. The average values of the overall salinity of subsurface water and their content of basic components of ion-salt and microcomponent composition were compared for Aptian-Albian-Senomanian, Neocomian and Jurassic aquifer complexes of Koltogorsky, Tolkinsky, Yuzhno-Tolkinsky megatroughs and Tagrinsky, Bakhilovsky, Alexandrovsky, Srednevasyugansky megaswells, as well as Nizhnevartovsky, Kaymysovsky arches. Using Sulin’s classification and cluster analysis the type of groundwater was characterized by the hydrogeochemical parameters set. It was defined that the suture zone presence does not directly affect the hydrogeochemical conditions of deep horizons of this zone and adjacent areas.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
