Abstract:While many of hot springs are originated from meteoric water, it is known that some springs contain much non-meteoric water. However, characteristics and origins of non-meteoric water components contained in those springs have not been well understood. To clarify them, we collected source spring water samples from 62 hot springs in the central Japan. Among them, 29 springs were inferred to contain much non-meteoric-water on the basis of d-excess, total dissolved solid, and δ values. Then, using precipitation i… Show more
