Hydrogeochemical Characteristics of the Haiyuan-Liupanshan Seismic Belt at the Northeastern Edge of the Tibet Plateau by Xinyan Li, Xiaopeng Liu, Jianguo Du, Yueju Cui, Fengxia Sun

“…The 18O and δD values of groundwater in HLFZ indicated that meteoric water contributed dominantly to the groundwater and it was influenced by the water cycle and water-rock reaction. Furthermore, tectonic movement, seismicity, and the level of deformation along different segments of HLFZ are important factors in the migration of deep to shallow groundwater, and water-rock reactions during groundwater migration, which results in differences in chemical composition of the groundwater between Group 1 and Group 2. …”
