Abstract

The δ 18 O and δ 2 H stable isotope techniques for studying properties of groundwater and surface help us to understand more clearly about the distribution and movement of groundwater in the South of Hanoi area. There were 68 water samples from the studying area and analyzed by a Liquid Water Isotope Analyzer (LWIA-24D). The stable isotope values of the groundwater from Pleistocene aquifers were range from -3.21‰ to -9.55‰ δ 18 O and -35.32‰ to -67.44‰ δ 2 H; rainwater from -8.18‰ to -4.13‰ δ18O and -61.19‰ to -17.93‰ δ 2 H; Red river water from -7.51‰ to -5.29‰ δ 18 O and -51.60‰ to -38.99‰ δ 2 H. Based on stable isotope characteristics, the results show that there was a relationship between surface water and groundwater in the South of Hanoi city. It is that groundwater recharges for river water in the dry season with 74%, and in the rainfall season groundwater is recharged from river with 87%.
