The assessment of the vulnerability to pollution/contamination of natural mineral water is of maximum importance for long term exploitation of such a specific aquifer. A physically-based approach on the vulnerability should be based on three factors describing a pollution event, which are, the contaminant transfer time from the hazard location to the protected 'target', the level of contaminant concentration potentially reaching the 'target' and the contamination duration at the 'target' [1]. The main purpose of t...

The internal arch of the Eastern Carpathians is a well-known area of mineral water occurrence. The combination of the post-volcanic phenomena, in terms of CO2 emissions (mofette) and water bearing layers lead to the formation of numerous mineral water springs with several locations where the mineral water bottling started more than 200 years ago. This study deals with the assessment of hydrogeological conditions, both hydrodynamic and hydrochemical, in such a particular area ? Lower Ciuc Basin. The main purpose of...
