  • Unravelling the sources contributing to the urban water supply [Elektronski vir] : an isotope perspective from Ljubljana, Slovenia
    Žagar, Klara, 1993- ...
    In cities experiencing rapid urbanization, we must continually update our understanding of the partitioning of drinking water sources concerning its supply if it is to be managed sustainably. This ... need is especially crucial given the pressure on water resources arising from evolving land use patterns and climate change. For this reason, a city-wide study of stable water isotopes (δ2H and δ18O) in precipitation, surface water and groundwater across Ljubljana, Slovenia, was undertaken. The goal was to characterise the temporal dynamics of urban water cycling and trace the various sources contributing to the city’s drinking water supply. Monthly water sampling, combined with hydrogeochemical and in-situ data, permitted the identification of local precipitation and surface water contributions to its two groundwater supply aquifers. In addition, a re-examination of the mean residence times (MRT) of surface waters revealed an MRT of 3–4 years, which is much longer than previously reported. Also, changes in the contributions of surface water and precipitation to groundwater were observed compared to previous studies. These findings improve our understanding of local water partitioning and provide valuable insights for water managers addressing future urban water resource management.
