“…The rSO4 2− /rCl − ratio varies between 0.16 and 0.34 in the Quaternary aquifer and 0.22 in the Tertiary aquifer. The elevated SO4 2− in groundwater is related to local terrestrial sulfate rock dissolution [57]. The rNa + /rCl − ratio of around one molar ratio indicates that halite dissolution is the chief Na + source in the groundwater [57].…”

Higher rNa + /rCl − ratio than 1 are explained as Na + being delivered from silicate dissolution [58].…”

Economic development and human life depend on groundwater resources in arid regions around the world. To define water quality in the Northwest Gulf of Suez, its elements, geogenic and anthropogenic sources, and suitability for various purposes, ten groundwater samples were collected and analyzed from wells tapping Quaternary and Tertiary aquifers. Average ion distribution was in the following order: Na+ > Mg2+ > Ca2+ > K+ and Cl− > SO42− > HCO3−. Two water types with hydrochemical Ca-Mg-Cl-SO4 facies accounted for 30% of samples due to reverse ion exchange, while Na-K-Cl-SO4 accounted for 70% of samples due to evaporation. Cd (0–0.042 mg/L) and Pb (0–0.222 mg/L) from industrial applications in the study area exceeded the acceptable values in drinking water (>0.003 and 0.01 mg/L, respectively). Heavy metals and ionic value enrichment are due to weathering, precipitation/evaporation, ion exchange, and anthropogenic activities. Most ions in groundwater are higher than the acceptable limits prescribed for drinking water at all sites. Most groundwater in the investigated area is inappropriate for irrigation based on total salinity and MH index. High-salinity-tolerant plants and vegetables can be utilized according to the USSLS diagram. All groundwater samples have improper effects of incrustation and corrosion. Proper management actions are recommended to ameliorate the groundwater quality.

“…The hydrological characteristic can be inferred from the groundwater manifest of Kecamatan Pagak (Mishra & Singh, 2019;Frisbee et al, 2016;Teixeira et al, 2013;Gebrie et al, 2018). Geomorphological conditions affect the condition of environmental precipitation during rock formation, rock mineral composition of aquifers, processes and patterns of groundwater movement in aquifers, and the length of time groundwater stays in aquifers or is trapped in one rock layer (Kudamnya et al, 2019;Obiajulu et al, 2016;Djorfi et al, 2018). It is expected that this research can be used as the intial identification in the groundwater management as a form of preventive solution to solve the water crisis through groundwater management.…”

A. IntroductionKarst landforms are landforms that are formed as a result of the dissolving process of constituent rocks which are dominated by limestone by the power of water (Sugiyanta, 2017;Groves & Meiman, 2005). The development of karst landforms can be seen from the units in the area (Ford & Williams, 2007). In the developed karst landforms, there are many drainage systems in the form of underground river flows (Lewin & Woodward, 2009).
