Fadeev Stream and spring of the same name: Water quality and geo-ecological characteristics

Research of the geoecological and hydrochemical characteristics of the water of the Fadeev Stream (surface source) and the spring "Fadeev Stream" (underground source) located in the Kola District of the Murmansk Region has been carried out in order to identify the influence of the anthropogenic factor on the formation of its hydrochemical composition, caused primarily by the consequences of construction and reconstruction of Eastern bypass highway located around the city of Murmansk. The sampling has been taken accounting the requirements of regulatory documents to perform measurements; the tests have been carried out according to standard methods of hydrochemical analysis. In the course of the study, it has been found that the waters of the Fadeev Stream and the underground source are of natural origin; there is no influence of technogenic factors. The Fadeev Stream water is very soft, slightly mineralized, with significant variations in color depending on the season, there is swamp nutrition of water bodies. The spring water can be described as slightly acidic, very soft, ultra-unleavened with a variable chemical composition depending on the season of the year. The increase in the content of pollutants in the spring water is observed during periods with the most intense precipitation and heavy snowmelt. Precipitation can wash out pollutants from the soil or parent rock. A comparison of the qualitative composition of water from surface and underground water sources has shown that at the sampling points, natural waters have a natural genesis and are not affected by anthropogenic factors.
