Numerical simulation of shallow groundwater salinization process induced by paleo-seawater transgression in North China Plain

摘要:
为了研究受到晚更新世和全新世海侵、现代海水入侵和蒸发作用共同影响下的地下水咸化过程,以沧州地区2个浅层含水层组作为研究对象,基于一系列古环境演化资料,运用SEAWAT软件建立了二维古水文地质模型,模拟了全新世以来地下水盐分的演化过程。结果表明:当今浅层地下水盐分的分布情况受到全新世海侵和海退事件的影响,来自古海侵的海水呈指状下渗,平均下渗速度达到23 mm/a,古海侵形成的咸水已下渗至地下−140~−160 m处。晚更新世海侵及全新世海侵事件中被捕获并储存的古海水仍然存在含水层中且未被完全淡化,滨海地区地下水盐分运移过程仍未到达平衡。古海侵形成的地下咸水仍以较低的速率持续下渗,地下水咸化过程也在持续进行,可能会导致更深层地下水水质的进一步恶化。研究成果可为沿海地区水资源管理提供参考。
Abstract:Objective To investigate the salinization of groundwater impacted by Late Pleistocene/Holocene transgression, current seawater intrusion, and evaporation, and to comprehend the consequences of marine transgression events and seawater intrusion due to groundwater over-exploitation on groundwater salinization, two shallow aquifers were chosen for research in the Cangzhou area.
Methods Using the SEAWAT software, a paleo-hydrogeological model was developed to simulate the evolution of groundwater salinity since the Holocene, relying on a series of paleo-environmental evolution data.
Results The results suggest that the distribution of shallow groundwater salinity is impacted by the Holocene transgression/regression. A traditional fingering process of saline water infiltration in shallow areas was discovered at an average rate of 23 mm/a, resulting from transgression events. Despite the low-permeability aquitards, saline infiltration persists over extended periods, reaching depths of up to 140~160 m B.S.L.
Conclusion Trapped marine water from the Late Pleistocene and Holocene transgression events remains present and has not been flushed out. The salt transport in the coastal aquifer-aquitard system has yet to reach an equilibrium state, potentially affecting the groundwater quality of deep confined aquifers.
