Abstract
|
Hormozgan province is located in the South of Iran. Geological formations with groundwater reservoirs consist of both calcitic or dolomitic carbonates, prone to karstification, and non-carbonate sediments. Hydrogeological research on two watersheds named Shamil and Mehran was based on 22 exploration wells, 3 piezometric wells and 322 springs. Results show that in the Shamil watershed 92% of springs have discharges less than 20 l/sec and in the Mehran watershed 96% of springs have discharges of 10 l/sec. Also, the water quality was identified.
