Abstract

Faults are among very important factors that makes the groundwater flow systems complicated. DOROUD FAULT in Doroud-Borujerd plain, as a segment of the main Zagros thrust, is an active and strike-slip fault with NW-SE trend. The aim of this study was to evaluate the DOROUD FAULT impact on alluvium aquifer after the earthquake event of March 2006 using the groundwater iso-potential map, hydrographs of observation wells, electrical conductivity of the groundwater, and the water table fluctuations in relation to the earthquake. Results showed that the abrupt changes in the lithology and thickness of the aquifer as well as the groundwater salinity areprobably associated with DOROUD FAULT’s movement. In addition, lagoonal fine grained sediments and the low quality of groundwater observed in the eastern fault block and moreover, the groundwater channelized in the western block of the fault are among the hydrogeological effects of this fault. This study suggests that in one month the earthquake caused up to an approximate two meter rise in water table in the areas adjacent to the fault comparing to 0.5 meter water table rise in other areas. Unexpectedly, the electrical conductivity of groundwater has a decreasing trend in the flow line direction, but with some local increasing anomalies along the fault zone.
