Abstract
The formation history of the Irkutsk Reservoir is considered along with its effect on changes in the nearby area and water chemistry. The results of hydrochemical studies, carried out by the authors in 2022 in reservoir bays and tributaries are analyzed and compared with earlier studies. The waters of rivers flowing into the Irkutsk Reservoir were found to belong to sulfate-hydrocarbonate magnesium-calcium type. The chemistry of the waters of rivers, bays of the Irkutsk Reservoir in the key areas, where inhabited localities, cottage settlements, and garden plots are situated, was found to differ from the background chemistry and to be chloride-hydrocarbonate magnesium-calcium. The microelement composition of water in the major portion of the reservoir corresponds to the ranges of the basic concentrations of microelements at the source of the Angara River.
期刊介绍:
Water Resources is a journal that publishes articles on the assessment of water resources, integrated water resource use, water quality, and environmental protection. The journal covers many areas of research, including prediction of variations in continental water resources and regime; hydrophysical, hydrodynamic, hydrochemical and hydrobiological processes, environmental aspects of water quality and protection; economic, social, and legal aspects of water-resource development; and experimental methods of studies.
