Isotope analyses of groundwaters of the North African Plain.
Catena 9, 253-263 (1982)
Isotope analyses of 36 groundwater samples were performed as part of an extensive hydrogeological study in Tripolitania, Libya. The stable isotope ratios 2H/1H, 18O/16O, and 13C/12C, and the radioactive isotope ratios 3H/1H and 14C/12C were measured which reflect mixing, vertical and horizontal flow as well as the individual recharge conditions of the various aquifers. The majority of water samples showed very low 14C as well as 3H concentrations corresponding to reliable conventional 14C ages exceeding 11,000 yrs. The results of the isotope analyses confirm, complete, and refine the hydrogeologically derived concepts of the study area.
