Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan untuk memetakan pola aliran air tanah di sekitar Kali Sumpil di wilayah Kota Malang. Lokasi penelitian ini adalah di segmen Kali Sumpil sepanjang 5,6 km yang mengalir mulai dari Kecamatan Lowokwaru hingga ke pertemuan antara Kali Sumpil dan Kali Sari di Kecamatan Blimbing, Kota Malang. Pola aliran air tanah di lokasi penelitian dipetakan berdasarkan elevasi muka air tanah yang diukur dari 43 lokasi sumur gali milik warga yang tersebar di sepanjang aliran Kali Sumpil tersebut. Elevasi muka air tanah pada sumur gali warga di lokasi penelitian berkisar antara +493,88 m dpl di bagian hulu hingga +436,70 m dpl di bagian hilir. Elevasi muka air tanah tertinggi berada pada sumur gali SG-26 yang berada di sebelah kanan aliran bagian hulu Kali Sumpil, sedangkan elevasi muka air tanah terendah berada pada sumur gali SG-25 di sebelah kiri aliran bagian hilir Kali Sumpil. Secara umum, aliran air tanah di lokasi penelitian mengalir dari arah Barat Laut menuju ke arah Tenggara bersesuaian dengan arah aliran Kali Sumpil. Hubungan antara air tanah dan air permukaan adalah air tanah mengisi air permukaan Kali Sumpil.
The objective of this study was to know the chemical characteristics of surface water in a segment of Sumpil River and the groundwater on its surrounding. The location of this study was in 3 cross sections, consisting of 1 well on the right of the Sumpil River, 1 well on the left of the Sumpil River flow, and 1 point on the Sumpil River flow. The chemical characteristics of the water were determined by the concentrations of cations and anions in the water sample using the Piper Trilinear Diagram with the GW Chart 1.30 computer program. Based on the results of the study, it was shown that the chemical characteristics of the Sumpil River water and the groundwater at the location of this study were the same, where all water samples had an alkaline earth metals content over the alkali content (zone 1), had a strong acidic content exceeding the weak acidic content (zone 4), have a balanced cation and anion pairs, none of which exceed 50% (zone 9), and shown that all of the water in the location of this study were fresh water.
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.
