| Abstract | ||
| The study aims at assessing the groundwater quality and identify of its origin within Dibdibba aquifer (Jabel Snam area) south of Basrah. Twenty well has been selected from the studied area were subjected to comprehensive physical and chemical analysis involving major cations (Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+ and K+), anions (HCO3-, Cl- and SO42-) and trace elements (Zn, Cd, Ni and Pb) besides general parameters (pH, EC, TDS and total hardness). The spatial distribution of parameters were drawin using geostotistic interpolation technique namely ordinag Kriging in Arc GIS 10.2.2. Based on the results the groundwater quality was classified to chloride group-sodium family-type (Na+ >Ca2+ >Mg2+). On the other hand, the groundwater origin investigate by Sullin diagram which showed old meteoric origin for all studied wells. | ||
