摘要
A large volume of groundwater is withdrawn annually in Tianjin Municipality, China, to meet agricultural, industrial, and municipal water uses. Groundwater overdraft in the urban districts and the Binhai New District in Tianjin Municipality has caused land subsidence. A series of field observation wells were installed to monitor the long-term groundwater level (GWL). The hydrostratigraphy of the aquifer system underlying Tianjin consists of four aquifer layers. The middle two aquifer layers are the main layers for groundwater withdrawal. The GWL of the top two aquifer layers responded rapidly to recharge from precipitation and seawater intrusion. The GWLs of the bottom two aquifer layers have been dropping steadily over the past 50 years. The aquifer sediments underlying Tianjin Municipality consist mainly of fine sand, silt, and clayey soil. The decline of the GWL has induced substantial land subsidence and led to overconsolidated compressible sediments.
