Hungarian Basin

The sorption properties of the radioactive ions can be different when the composition of rocks is more complex than that of bentonites. It is illustrated in Table 3.7, where the relative sorbed quantity of 137Cs ion in equilibrium (xCsexp) is listed for the bentonites from the Carpathian Basin and some other Hungarian rocks (Table 3.6). 

There are few remnants of this substage in Hungary apart from a few fissure faunas (nos. 1, 2, and 3 of Csarnota, locality no. 7 of Osztramos and the travertine of Sutto), all Pleistocene transitional faunas, only a single record from bore samples in the basin sediment of the Great Hungarian Plain (Mindszent, 650 m) testifies to this phase. 

Noble gases studies suggest that flow rates in basins are discontinuous and variable in time and space. For example, the water velocity in the Triassic aquifer of the Paris basin decreases drastically with distance from the recharge area and therefore with depth (Dewonck et al. 2001). Stute et al. (1992) also noted a similar decrease of water movement with depth in the case of the Great Hungarian Plain. It has also been suggested that deep fluid movement is controlled by tectonic events affecting the basins (Ballentine et al. 1991, 2001 Pinti and Marty 1995).
