Using Chloride Mass Balance to Quantify Groundwater Recharge of the Ordos Plateau,China

摘要

Groundwater is a valuable resource in the semiarid Ordos Plateau where abundant natural resources,such as coal,natural gas and halite,are present.With the development of the resources,groundwater demand increases dramatically.Origin identification and recharge estimates of groundwater are significant parts of the sustainable groundwater development in the Ordos Plateau.Both groundwater and precipitation
