“…Br − in saline minerals/waters is an important indicator to reflect the degree and stage of the evaporation condition of the brine, and a higher content of Br − usually indicates a stronger evaporation of the salt lake and thus a higher concentration of brine (Sanders, 1991;Warren, 2006;Cheng et al, 2008;Farid et al, 2013;Zarei et al, 2013;Biehl et al, 2014;Zhao et al, 2020). However, the Br − content in the ISL1A core was abnormally high in the early stage of salt formation (Figure 7); it then decreased since 37.79 m, re-increased in the late stage of salt formation, (Wang and Wang, 2010). The study of δ 11 B and ρ(B 3+ ) in salt lakes of the QB shows that there is a significant positive correlation between them, indicating B 3+ contents can be used as an index to reconstruct the salinity of ancient lakes in arid areas (Liu et al, 2000;Du et al, 2019;Zhang et al, 2019).…”

The fluid inclusion composition of halite can help track chemical composition of ancient fluids and, thus, serves as a reliable index to analyze ancient brine in salt lakes. Qarhan Salt Lake (QSL) is the largest potash brine deposit in China. Although the mixing of modern river water and Ca-Cl deep water is widely accepted as potassium formation, the mixing characteristics in the time domain and driving factors of deep water are still unclear. Here, the chemical composition of fluid inclusions in primary halite samples collected from the ISL1A borehole in QSL was measured by LA-ICP-MS technology. The analysis results show that, during the formation stage of the S4 salt layer in QSL, the main potassium salt layer, the contents of Ca2+ and Sr2+ in brine increased significantly. There is evidence confirming that Ca-Cl deep water is beneficial to the enrichment of potassium and the surrounding rivers generally develop terraces. It suggests that, during the formation stage of the QSL potassium salt layer, more Ca-Cl inflow water of the northern margin supplies the salt lake, inferring that it was driven by tectonic activities. In addition, the chemical composition of halite fluid inclusions shows that there is an anomaly in geochemistry at the early stage of salt formation in QSL. By combining the time of tectonic activities, it is inferred that the anomaly is not caused by tectonic activities but maybe caused by a salt-forming event. This work indicates that deep water and tectonic movement have a huge impact on the evolution of salt lakes. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the influence of deep water and tectonic activities on the salt-forming evolution stage of salt lakes when studying the salt-forming evolution stage of salt lakes and paleoclimate by using salt lake deposition.

“…Considering the impact of shipping, the measuring positions were near the banks, with certain distances ranging from 605 to 70 m. A Global Positioning System was used to confirm the exact measuring locations ( Table 1). The Humen estuary is well-mixed under normal flow conditions during the dry season (Ou, 2009;Luo et al, 2010). Due to 3 years of drought, the river discharge decreased by 50 % during the study period in 2005 compared to a normal year (Liao et al, 2008).…”

Knowledge of the processes governing salt intrusion in estuaries is important, since it influences the ecoenvironment of estuaries as well as its water resource potential in many ways. Analytical models of salinity variation offer a simple and efficient method for studying salt intrusion in estuaries. In this paper, an unsteady analytical solution is presented to predict the spatio-temporal variation in salinity in convergent estuaries. It is derived from a one-dimensional advection-diffusion equation for salinity, adopting a constant mixing coefficient and a single-frequency tidal wave, which can directly reflect the influence of the tidal motion and the interaction between the tide and runoff. The deduced analytical solution is illustrated with an application to the Humen estuary of the Pearl River Delta (PRD) and proves to be an efficient and accurate approach for predicting the salt intrusion in convergent estuaries. The unsteady analytical solution is tested against observations from six study sites to validate its capability to predict intratidal variation in salt intrusion. The results show that the proposed unsteady analytical solution can be successfully used to reproduce the spatial distribution and temporal processes governing salinity dynamics in convergent, well-mixed estuaries. The proposed method provides a quick and convenient approach for deciding on waterfetching methods to make good use of water resources.

Abstract. Knowledge of the processes governing salt intrusion in estuaries is important since it influences the eco-environment of estuaries as well as its water resource potential in many ways. Analytical models of salinity variation offer a simple and efficient method to study salt intrusion in estuaries. In this paper, an unsteady analytical solution is presented to simulate the spatial-temporal variation of salinity in convergent estuaries. It is derived from a one-dimensional advection-diffusion equation for salinity adopting a constant mixing coefficient and a single-frequency tidal wave. Compared with steady-state solutions, it can directly reflect the influence of the tide and the interaction between the tide and runoff. The deduced analytical solution is illustrated with an application to the Humen estuary of the Pearl River Delta (PRD), and proves to be an efficient and accurate approach to predicate the salt intrusion in convergent estuaries. The unsteady analytical solution is tested against six surveys made at six study sites, to validate its capability of predicating salt intrusion variation. The results show that the proposed unsteady analytical solution can be successfully used to reproduce the spatial distribution and temporal processes governing salinity dynamics in convergent, well-mixed estuaries. Meanwhile, this predictive equation provides a quick and convenient approach to decide upon water fetching works to make good use of water resources.
