The paper presents the method of chromatographic determination of noble gases concentrations (He, Ne and Ar) in groundwater. He concentration in groundwater is helpful in groundwater dating over a wide range of time. Ne and Ar concentrations are used to calculate excess air and recharge temperature of groundwater. Sulphide waters occurring in Cenomanian sediments in the southern part of the Miechów Trough in Busko-Zdrój, Krzyż and Kazimierza Wielka areas are the subject of research. The results of the noble gases concentrations measurements for boreholes: Busko C-1, Cudzynowice GT-1 and Wełecz S-6 are presented as well as the methodology of calculating concentrations of these gases and groundwater ages.
In this study the method for evaluating resistance hydrogeological systems to anthropogenic pollution using environmental tracers is described. Resistance of groundwater systems to anthropogenic pollution is correlated with the age of water, which can be determined by means of environmental tracers. The paper presents modified chromatographic measurement system which allow for the determination of CFC-11, CFC-12, SF6, Ne, Ar and He. Developed chromatographic system can be used to dating young groundwaters, and the helium method allows for the determination of groundwater age in the range from Holocene to the last interglacial. The developed measurement system of argon and neon in water allows to determine recharge temperature and the amount of "excess air" in groundwater. During the work implementation authors took part in a research project organized by the Université Paris-Sud and Université Rennes, France: Gdat1 intercomparison exercice. This exercise aimed to sampling groundwater from boreholes from the area of Paris (along with 31 laboratories from 14 countries) and test, upon them, developed at IFJ PAN analytical methods measuring CFCs, SF6 and noble gases in groundwater
An overview of long-term, sysiematic observations of trace gas composition of the atmosphere over southern Poland is given. Three major greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4, N2O) and selected halocarbons (freons F-11, F-12 and F-113; chloroform; 1,1,1-trichloroetane; carbon tetrachloride; sulphur hexafluoride and trifluoromethyl sulphur pentafuoride) were monitored. Measurements were performed at two locations of contrasting characteristics: (1) the high-mountain site Kasprowy Wierch, High Tatras, representing atmospheric conditions relatively free of local influences, and (2) two sites located in the Kraków agglomeration, representing a typical urban atmosphere. The data available for Kraków and Kasprowy Wierch were compared with the Mace Head data, representing a marine regional background. The impact of continental sources for some of the measured gases is clearly seen in the Kraków and Kasprowy Wierch records. The mean offset between CH4 concentrations recorded at Kasprowy Wierch and at Mace Head for the period 1998-2012 is 20.7 ppb and stems from continental emissions of this gas originating mainly from anthropogenic activities (leaks of natural gas distribution networks, landfills, livestock). For N2O, a similar offset of ca. 1 ppb for the period 2009-2012 was observed. Although the long-term concentration trends of selected halogenated compounds measured in Kraków coincide in general with the respective trends in Mace Head data, the Kraków records contain numerous spikes and periods of enhanced concentrations, reflecting the impact of local sources of these compounds. The impact of a legislative framework enforced in Poland in July 2002, regulating the trade, storage and disposal of ozone-depleting substances, is visible in the Kraków record of halogenated compounds.
