As one of China's nine border provinces, Jilin Province is an important window for “Belt and Road” to open up the north, channel foreign trade exchanges. Therefore, understanding hydrogeochemical characteristics very effective water resources management in Province. A total 64 groundwater samples were collected from 32 monitoring Wells Use analysis techniques, WQI index human health risk methods assess processes quality, including determination parameters, conventional ions, trace elements stable isotopes (δD δ 18 O). The results show that slightly alkaline, cations are mainly Na + , Ca 2+ Mg K anions HCO3- Cl − id="M2">SO42- . Most belong Ca-HCO 3 Na-HCO types, which formed by dissolution calcite, dolomite, gypsum, silicates carbonates.

Sediment concentrations of rare earth elements (REEs) can reflect aquatic system impact from anthropogenic activities, especially in small lakes characterized by high sensitivity. However, the literature on REEs sediment profiles is limited, impeding a comprehensive understanding historical influence activities urban environments. In this investigation, we examined spatial distribution and fractionation sediments Aha Lake, karst lake. The results reveal that average contents surface ranged 76.88 to 181.38 mg/kg. Light (LREEs) comprised > 80 % total almost all sediments, indicating distinct enhancement terrestrial source influx derived LREE-rich material. Negative Eu anomalies, weak positive Ce anomalies may be attributed oxidizing conditions. ΣREEs display declining tendency lake's border its center, primarily influenced human activities. Vertical distributions most core consistently vary with depth, showing decrease at 10–20 cm higher 20–30 cm. Additionally, UCC-normalized REE patterns are observed depths 0–30 reflecting contemporary environmental changes various sampling sites. coal mining content found than development only. Moreover, bivariate (La/Sm)UCC - (La/Yb)UCC plot effectively differentiates depositional origin different layers locations, such as those associated wastewater deposition deposition. This study provides valuable insights into variations water environments due utilizing sensitive levels lake sediments.

Rare earth element (REE) concentrations in river water reflect both local geological background and the intensity of anthropogenic activities. The increasing demand for high-tech applications is accompanied by an increase REEs environments, especially urban regions. Therefore, dissolved a typical (Yongding River) were analyzed to reveal influence inputs. It was found that sum REE (ΣREE) 6.27~86.26 ng L−1 (mean 31.05 L−1). spatial distribution significantly affected natural processes human To eliminate effect upstream land use on downstream measurements, this study established 500 m buffer zone alongside identified origin through correlations among proportions within zone, population density, REEs.

In this study, nine HMs from a typical urban river (Yongding River) in Beijing, China was implemented. Results evidence that mean HM concentrations decreased order: Mo > V As Zn Ni Mn Fe Cr Co. concentration As, Zn, Mn, Fe, has significant increase middle reaches, indicating agricultural industrial pollution sources nearby.
