Groundwater Geochemistry and Isotopes provides a practical and theoretical understanding of geochemistry and environmental isotopes in hydrogeology with applications in both natural groundwater and in contaminated settings. This text teaches the thermodynamic basis and principal reactions involving the major ions, gases and isotopes during groundwater recharge, weathering, and redox evolution. This second edition brings additional case studies and new developments in the practical use of isotopes and geochemistry in understanding groundwater origin, evolution and anthropogenic impacts. Additional solved problems and example calculations are available as a free e-manual by request (idclark@uottawa.ca). The new edition develops the fundamentals of environmental isotopes and geochemistry and provides approaches for consultants and practitioners as well as undergraduates to address problems in natural and contaminant hydrogeology.

Covers the basics of solutes, gases and isotopes in water, and concentration-activity relationships and reactions
Describes tracing the water cycle, weathering, and the geochemical evolution of water quality
Explores dating groundwater as young as a few years to over hundreds of millions of years
Includes clear figures and calculations to enhance comprehension
Uses case studies to demonstrate the integration of geochemistry and isotopes for contaminated groundwater

Ian Clark is an emeritus professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of Ottawa. He completed a bachelor of science in earth sciences and a master of science in hydrogeology at the University of Waterloo followed by his doctoral degree at the Université de Paris-Sud (Orsay) in isotope hydrogeology and paleoclimatology. Since his earliest work on geothermal systems in western Canada, Dr. Clark’s research focuses on the integration of geochemistry and isotopes to address questions on the origin, age, and geochemical history of groundwater and solutes in natural and contaminated settings. He and his colleagues recently established the Advanced Research Complex for geosciences at the University of Ottawa hosting labs for accelerator mass spectrometry, stable isotopes, noble gases and geochemistry.
