摘要:
The influent and effluent characteristics of river Ganga in the Hardwar-Narora sector in Uttar Pradesh, India was studied using environmental oxygen-18. δ18O of river water and also of groundwater close to the river course was monitored at 8 stations along the 220 km stretch for a period of ten months. δ18O of the river during the monsoon months (June to September) was about – 10 at all the stations. However, during the dry months from October to April, the δ18O of the river was enriched progressively from Hardwar to Narora. The enrichment indicated groundwater contribution to the river during the non-monsoon months. The contribution was comuted using the principle of isotope balance.
