Rate of uptake of calcium carbonate in underground karst water
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 May 2009
Summary
A method of estimating the rate of flow-through time of water moving in an outcrop of massive limestone is reviewed. Mean values of calcium carbonate dissolved are shown to be proportional to flow-through times. The rate of uptake is very similar in both Derbyshire and Yorkshire. The pattern demonstrated resembled the relationship between salinity and increased depth noted for deep sub-surface brines.
