Cover Story: In the Northern Chihuahua Desert, dune fields may hold important volumes of water, often unquantified, that could augment regional groundwater resources but also be compromised by anthropogenic activity. Despite semi-arid conditions, the Kermit and Monahans dune fields contain >0.32 km3 of water and may contribute up to 18% of the annual recharge to the regional Pecos Valley Aquifer. Recharge happens through the infiltration of rainfall on the bare active dunes and groundwater flows towards the SW parallel to a Pliocene aquitard. Radiocarbon and δ13C analyses on dissolved inorganic carbon reveal possible groundwater contamination from hydrocarbons (up to 24%) downflow from the recharge zone in the Kermit dune field, and in the Pecos Valley Aquifer, associated with oil and gas activity in the Permian Basin, TX. View this paper
