Identification of origin and runoff of karst groundwater in the glacial lake area of the Jinsha River fault zone, China

Abstract: Karst groundwater plays important roles as a water supply and in sustaining the biodiversity and ecosystems of the eastern Qinghai–Xizang Plateau. Owing to the stratigraphic structure, high tectonic activity, and changeable climate of the region, the recharge source, runoff path, and dynamic characteristics of karst groundwater are highly complex, which poses challenges with regard to the protection of water resources and ecology. This study identified the origin and flow processes of karst groundwater in the … Show more

“…Karst area accounts for about 15.2% of the global land area, and is widely distributed in China [ 1 ], the United States [ 2 ], South Africa [ 3 ], Ireland [ 4 ], and many other countries in the world. About 25% of the world population depends on water from karst aquifers due to the large volume of water stored in these formations and excellent water quality [ 5 ].…”
