1 Water Quality Assessment Rio Conchos By Dr. Melida Gutierrez Visiting Professor from Southern Missouri State University
2 The Chihuahuan Desert The Chihuahuan Desert is approximately 800 miles long and 250 miles wide. Included in the region are parts of the states of Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo Leon, Durango, Zacatecas, and San Luis Potosi in Mexico. Elevation and Climate: Although the Chihuahuan Desert region extends farther south than other North American deserts, extensive portions lie above 4,000 ft. in elevation. The lowest portions of the Chihuahuan Desert region are about 1000 ft. in elevation along the Rio Grande while the highest portions, in Mexico, approach 10,000 ft. in elevation
3 Sampling Locations 1997 (about 100) H C B A Rio Conchos Basin
4 Water Quality Study, water samples 10 sediment samples ph, electrical conductivity Nitrates, phosphates, and 64 elements (21 found below detection limits, ICP-mass spectrometer) No anions (sulfates, chlorides) No data was available for comparing values
5 Results: a concentration pattern for each element Sampling points included river and incoming flows Sampling locations not evenly distributed
6 Elements following each concentration pattern: Ca (concentrations increase downstream): Ca, K, Ge, Sr, Cd, Ba, La Na (concentrations reach a maximum at end of segment B, where irrigation is extensive): Na, Li, Be, B, Mg, Al, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Cu, As, Se, Rb, Zr, Mo, Pd, Ce, Hf, U. Pb (highest concentration at end of segment A): Pb, W, Au, Hg, Nd, Ta Ni (no pattern): Ni, Zn, Ti, Co, Ag, Cs, Th.
7 Drastic change in water chemistry occurs in this area Rio Conchos Basin
8
9 There is a need for background data Why? There are not enough data for this area The Conchos is one of the largest tributaries of the Rio Grande; it supplies >75% of water in the Rio Grande at its confluence Region (central Chihuahua) is growing in population, services and industry. Wildlife protection is imperative Results could be applicable to other parts of the Chihuahuan desert or other semi-arid regions.
10 Study Area: Rio Conchos near El Granero Reservoir Last reservoir before the river joins the Rio Grande Water quality changes Wildlife abundant; riparian zone is an important source for habitat and food Potential use as drinking water source for the city of Chihuahua?

12 Geology of the area granodiorite shale Limestone limestone Rhyolite Conglomerate conglomerate alluvium Limestone w/gypsum rhyolite limestone w/gypsum Alluvium
13 Almost the perfect research area Unique location due to: Undisturbed land (no irrigation, sparsely populated, mostly native vegetation, some springs) Unique geology, wide variety of rock outcrops; salt deposits (playa lakes) in nearby closed-drainage basins Several different types of salts/types of soils are expected, which provides a (challenging) way to test the separability among salt- and sodium-affected soils. Relatively distant (100 km) highly utilized land (urban, agriculture, industrial) can be used to test the effectiveness of natural cleansing processes
14 How much of the area will look like this in the future? Salt affected parcels by Meoqui: how much of them are natural and how much irrigation-induced?
15 Salinity trends for the Rio Conchos near Ojinaga, Ene-Mar 3000 Abr-Jun 2500 Jul-Sep Oct-Dic y = x R 2 = y = x R 2 = µs/cm y = x R 2 = y = x R 2 =
16 Salinity of the river water is increasing So what? What can be done? Determine the sources Determine the variations with time Determine the mineralogy/geochemistry Once the above are known, a control and method can be developed which includes preventive and corrective measurements, disposal of brine, regulatory policies, etc.

International Water and Boundary Commission, El Paso, Texas, 246 pp. have stirred interest from Mexican scientists to participate in research projects: UACH, UACJ, Instituto de la Sequía, INIFAP CONACYT awarded in 2004 a grant for a three-year water quality study of the Conchos Basin to a former UACH investigator, Dr. H. Rubio (INIFAP), also shows that Mexican agencies are more willing to participate in international collaboration research efforts.
21 Additional research possibilities include Effects of deforestation in the Sierra Madre on water quality and soil erosion Watershed management practices that will ensure water supply (sustainable use) Effects of sewage/primary treated water on crops and river quality Long-term crop management for a best utilization of water and soil resources Safe utilization of treated water for public parks in urban settings Water savings by large-scale greenhouse utilization Monitoring of water table levels of aquifers fed by the Rio Conchos Monitoring of riparian vegetation abundance and vitality Wildlife inventory; Protection of endangered species (habitat)
