The hnal example in this set is from the Madison regional aquifer study by Plummer et al. (1990). The Madison Limestone aquifer occurs in Wyoming, Montana, and South Dakota. Plummer et al. (1990) utilized a combination of saturation index constraints, inverse modeling, and carbon...

Humic substances from groundwater are considerably less colored per unit of carbon than humic substances from surface water their absorbance at 465 nm (a wavelength commonly used for color in Standard Methods, 1971) is 3-10 times less than the absorbance of humic substances from surface water. Table 6 compares absorbances of humic substances from groundwater with absorbances of humic substances from surface water. Absorbances of samples from the Red River, St. Peters, and Laramie-Fox Hills aquifers are considerably less than absorbances of humic substances from an average surface water. Only the Madison and the Biscayne samples are similar in color to humic substances from surface water. The Biscayne is... 

FIGURE 2. Infrared spectra of fulvic acid from the Madison (A), St. Peters (B), and Red River (C) aquifers, and of humic and fulvic acids from the Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer (D and E, respectively) (Thurman, 1979). 

Other evidence supporting the kerogen hypothesis is that kerogen is enriched in carbon and hydrogen and depleted in oxygen, as is the case for humic substances from the Red River, Madison, St. Peter, and Laramie-Fox Hills aquifers. The only conflicting evidence is the fractionation,...
