[en] Measurements of uranium concentrations, and ²³⁴U/²³⁸U activity ratios along the Sabarmati River and adjacent phreatic aquifers, and radiocarbon in confined aquifers in the Watrak-Shedi sub-basin, part of the Sabarmati basin, have been carried out. The uranium isotope distributions show marked seasonal variations in river waters, whereas they are within experimental uncertainties in the groundwaters adjacent to the river bed. The observed seasonal variations indicate the presence of a groundwater component in the Sabarmati River, and its contribution to the total river flow appears to be maximum during summer. Apparent radiocarbon ages of confined aquifers in the Watrak-Shedi sub-basin show that the groundwater flow is in the NE-SW direction with a velocity of 6-7m/a. (author)
