Assessing the recharge process and importance of montane water to adjacent tectonic valley-plain groundwater using a ternary end-member mixing analysis based on isotopic and chemical tracers
A study in eastern Taiwan evaluated the importance of montane water contribution (MC) to adjacent valley-plain groundwater (VPG) in a tectonic suture zone. The evaluation used a ternary natural-tracer-based en...

Evaluating the Relative Importance of Groundwater Recharge Sources in a Subtropical Alluvial Plain Using Tracer-Based Ternary End Member Mixing Analysis (EMMA)
In Taiwan’s humid climate, proximal fan groundwater (PFG) is mainly sourced from local precipitation (LP), mountain front recharge (MFR), and mountain block recharge (MBR). This study evaluates the relative im...

Assessing groundwater sources and their association with reservoir water using stable hydrogen and oxygen isotopes: a case study of the Taipei Basin, northern Taiwan
The purpose of this isotopic study is to identify groundwater sources in Taipei Basin (TPB) and their association with water of the Feitsui Reservoir (FTR), northern Taiwan. To this end, water samples includin...

A novel method for determining the anisotropy of geophysical parameters: unit range variation increment (URVI)
Geometric anisotropy is commonly assumed in the investigation of the spatial variations of geophysical parameters. However, this assumption is not always satisfied in practice. We propose a novel method to det...
