Abstract

 

Groundwater samples have been collected from eight locations in the western part of the Marqia River Basin, during two periods(June-October) of the year 2019.

 A hydrochemical and Statistical study were carried out with the aim to determining chemical composition of groundwater, evaluation its validity and determining correlation coefficients between the basic components of this composition in order to know the basic variables that refer to the conditions and natural factors affecting this composition. It was found that there were no sharp changes either in salinity or in geochemical type of the water in the direction of groundwater movement. Moreover, that mutual influence between water, carbonic rocks and detrital which has a carbonate cement, led to development of carbon acid decomposition processes with these rocks.

Hence, it is rich in Mg, Ca, HCO3 ions, and the dominance of Magnesium and calcareous hydrocarbon type of the water of the region.

The results of this study also confirmed that the filtration cycle played a main role in shaping the chemical composition of the groundwater.

Likewise, the marine transgression, marine sediments in the stratigraphic section, in addition to the intrusions of marine water affected in chemical composition of this water.
