Drying increases organic colloidal mobilization in the karst vadose zone: Evidence from a 15‐year cave‐monitoring study

Abstract: Understanding the hydrological processes of colloids within the karst vadose zone is vital to the security of karst groundwater and providing appropriate paleohydrological explanations of colloid-facilitated metals in speleothem. This study addresses the mobilization mechanisms driving colloidal organic matter (COM) transport in the karst vadose zone using a 15-year long monthly monitoring dataset from a cave drip point (HS4) in Heshang Cave, Qingjiang Valley, China. Variations in COM concentrations were repor… Show more

“…We also note that we cannot exclude the interannual effects, for example, multiyear droughts, which may additionally modulate the relationship between precipitation and runoff, and, hence, potentially the transport of organic ligands. 26,66,67 Nevertheless, even though the attribution of a single event is challenging, the overall picture drawn by our results from the four drip sites suggests that drip water transition metals in Larga Cave respond not only to seasonal variations but may also have the potential to trace event-based high-flux infiltration.…”

“…While our record is too short to make similar inferences, we note that the length of the dry seasons during or directly before the monitored time interval was not significantly different; nor did the region experience pronounced water deficits as indicated by the estimated P-PET values (Figure 5), which is in line with the data from the U.S. Drought Monitor. 63 Given that Heshang Cave typically experiences larger dry season water deficits than Puerto Rico, we expect that the effect described by Liao et al (2021) 26 is of minor importance at Larga Cave.…”
