摘要
Studying the isotope characteristics and water body transformation relationships among different water bodies in the hilly and gully region of the Loess Plateau can provide a theoretical foundation for evaluating regional climate, ecology, and water resources. In this study, daily and monthly averaged δD and δ18O in precipitation, river water, and shallow groundwater were measured in 2017 in the Jiuyuangou watershed, which has a good ecological condition. The compositional relationship between the stable hydrogen and oxygen isotopes in difference water bodies was explored, the influence factors and spatio-temporal variation of δ18O in precipitation and river water were analyzed, and the stable isotope conversion ratios between different water bodies in the study area were calculated using the two-terminal mixed model. The main conclusions of the study are as follows: the d-excess of river water showed an increasing trend with elevation during the observation period; the δ18O of river water was enriched with increasing distance from the river source and decreased with increasing altitude; temperature, wind speed, and relative humidity had significant effects on the hydrogen and oxygen isotopes of precipitation; precipitation and shallow groundwater replenish the river during the non-flood period, the proportions of which were 46% and 54%, respectively; and during the flood season, the shallow groundwater is replenished by river water and precipitation, the proportions were 60% and 40%, respectively. These results indicate that there is a good conversion relationship between "precipitation-river-shallow groundwater" in the study area. The implementation of soil and water conservation measures has had some influence on the conversion of different water bodies in small watersheds. The results provide a basis for the establishment of water cycle models for hilly and gully regions of the Loess Plateau. © 2019, Science Press. All right reserved.
