The production of bottled water requires a forensic discriminant technique that enables the identification of the brands or accidents caused by intended contaminants. The bottled water poisoning crimes have drawn much attention, and such crimes may recur in the future. The water is colorless and odorless, and thus it is difficult to detect contaminated water through visual observation. Thus, bottled water can be easily exploited for poisoning, and a method for tracing their origin is currently required.Methods: In this study, a total of 27 brands of bottled water samples were analyzed to determine stable oxygen isotopes, strontium isotopes, major and trace elements. The geographical origin of the water was traced based on the climatic and geographical characteristics of the location from where water was sourced, which was assumed to be reflected in the bottled water. Furthermore, we investigated whether this method can be applied to identify bottled water products. Results:The results demonstrated that the characteristics of the bottled water, including the oxygen stable isotope ratios, reflect the latitude and altitude of bottled water source in South Korea, from the high-latitude region to the coastal regions. In addition, the results indicated that excellent discrimination was achieved using strontium isotopes to identify source areas with different types of bedrock, complex underlying lithologies, and ocean areas in South Korea. A statistical method based on discriminant analysis was applied to measure trace elements, and the results effectively reflected the characteristics of water-rock interactions (cross-validated classification probability: ≥92%).Conclusions: These data suggest that the geographical characteristics of the source area are well reflected in commercial bottled water in South Korea. The proposed analytical methods can be utilized to trace the geographical origin of different bottled water samples and identify bottled water products used in poisoning crimes.

The Reshui area, located to the northeast of the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau, exhibits complex geological conditions, well-developed structures, and strong hydrothermal activities. The distribution of hot springs within this area is mainly controlled by faults. In this paper, five hot springs from the area were taken as the research object. We comprehensively studied the geochemical characteristics and genetic mechanism of the geothermal water by conducting a field investigation, hydrogeochemistry and environmental isotopic analysis (87Sr/86Sr, δ2H, δ18O, 3H). The surface temperature of the geothermal water ranges from 84 to 91 °C. The geothermal water in the area exhibits a pH value ranging between 8.26 and 8.45, with a total dissolved solids’ (TDS) concentration falling between 2924 and 3140 mg/L, indicating a weakly alkaline saline nature. It falls into the hydrochemical type CI-Na and contains a relatively high content of trace components such as Li, Sr, B, Br, etc., which are of certain developmental value. Ion ratio analysis and strontium isotope characteristics show that the dissolution of evaporite minerals and carbonate minerals serves as a hot spring for the main source of solutes. Hydrogen and oxygen stable isotope characteristics findings indicate that the geothermal water is primarily recharged via atmospheric precipitation. Moreover, the tritium isotopic data suggest that the geothermal water is a mixture of both recent water and ancient water. Moreover, the recharge elevation is estimated to be between 6151 and 6255 m. and the recharge area is located in the Kunlun Mountains around the study area. The mixing ratio of cold water, calculated using the silicon enthalpy equation, is approximately 65% to 70%. Based on the heat storage temperature calculated using the silicon enthalpy equation and the corrected quartz geothermal temperature scale, we infer that the heat storage temperature of geothermal water in the area ranges from 234.4 to 247.8 °C, with a circulation depth between 7385 and 7816 m. The research results are highly valuable in improving the research level concerning the genesis of high-temperature geothermal water in Reshui areas and provide essential theoretical support for the rational development and protection of geothermal resources in the area.

Global bottled water consumption has largely increased (14.35 billion gallons in 2020) [1] , [2] , [3] , [4] , [5] during the last decade since consumers are demanding healthier and safer forms of rehydration. Bottled water sources are normally labeled as mountainous and pristine mineral springs (fed by rainfall and snow/glacier melting processes), deep groundwater wells or industrial purified water. The advent of numerous international and national-based bottled water brands has simultaneously raised a worldwide awareness related to the water source and chemical content traceability [6] . Here, we present the first database of stable isotope compositions and reported chemical concentrations from imported and national-based bottled waters in Costa Rica. In total, 45 bottled waters produced in Costa Rica and 31 imported from USA, Europe, Oceania, and other countries of Central America were analyzed for δ 18 O, δ 2 H, and d -excess. Chemical compositions were obtained from available bottle labels. National-based bottle waters ranged from -2.47‰ to -10.65‰ in δ 18 O and from -10.4‰ to -78.0‰ in δ 2 H, while d -excess varied from +4.2‰ up to +17.0‰. International bottle waters ranged between -2.21‰ and -11.03‰ in δ 18 O and from -11.3‰ up to -76.0‰ in δ 2 H, while d -excess varied from +5.0‰ up to +19.1‰. In Costa Rica, only 19% of the brands reported chemical parameters such as Na + , K + , Ca +2 , Mg +2 , F − , Cl − , NO 3 − , SO 4 −2 , CO 3 −2 , SiO 2 , dry residue, and pH; whereas 27% of the international products reported similar parameters. The absence of specific geographic coordinates or water source origin limited a spatial analysis to validate bottled water isotope compositions versus available isoscapes in Costa Rica [7] . This database highlights the potential and relevance of the use of water stable isotope compositions to improve the traceability of bottled water sources and the urgent need of more robust legislation in order to provide detailed information (i.e., water source, chemical composition, purification processes) to the final consumers.
