PRELIMINARY HYDROGEOLOGICAL RESULT OF SPRINGS STUDIES IN ORLICKIE MTS. (ZIELENIEC AND ZÁKOUTI AREA)

Abstract

The paper presents the results of hydrogeological mapping and research on pH, electrical conductivity and temperature of spring waters at the Polish-Czech border in the Zieleniec and Zákouti area. The purpose of the study was to characterise spring hydrology in the neighbouring catchments i.e. the upper part of the Bystrzyca Dusznicka River catchment in Poland (hydrogeological mapping in June, 2004) and the Belá River catchment in the Czech Republic (hydrogeological mapping in June 2011). Most of the springs represent Meinzer’s class 6 (0.1–1 L/s). However, higher spring discharge rates were found in the Bystrzyca catchment, where 12 springs yielded values more than 1 L/s. This catchmenr area was also characterized by higher values of pH and electrical conductivity of water. The water in the springs of this area was cooler, too. The research results indicate that the springs occurring on the Polish side are associated with a deeper water circulation system than the springs in the neighbouring Belá catchment 130.
