Faculty of Civil and Water Resources engineering through hydrology chair has conducted a training to faculties and graduate students on geochemistry and isotope hydrology applications in water resources management. There were 15 participants. The training introduced the applications of geochemistry and isotopes in hydrology, sampling of waters for lab analysis, how to present data, applications of Isotope hydrology using 18O-2H : H2O; 15N-18O: NO3; 222Rn; 13C-DIC; 3H; 14C and mass balance of geochemistry parameter (such as chloride) to separate baseflow from surface runoff.
The training was very much helpful to learn as a different tool to deal with hydrological processes. It was also important for MSc and PhD students who have started to use geochemistry and isotope as a methodology to deal with ground water recharge and runoff mechanism.
