Hydrogeology and groundwater pollution of Yaqui Valley, Sonora, Mexico
We use the G.O.D. criteria to evaluate the vulnerability of the Yaqui Valley aquifer from drill holedata and water table maps. The pollutant loads are identified and quantified and the aquifer pollutionrisk was calculated from the aquifer vulnerabili ty and the pollution load. The most vulnerable zo...

| Sumario: | We use the G.O.D. criteria to evaluate the vulnerability of the Yaqui Valley aquifer from drill holedata and water table maps. The pollutant loads are identified and quantified and the aquifer pollutionrisk was calculated from the aquifer vulnerabili ty and the pollution load. The most vulnerable zonesare in the West, and the most important contributions of pollutants are from industrial, agricultural,livestock and population centers. The highest aquifer pollution risk areas are Central, West and East |
