[Chemical Characteristics and Genetic Analysis of Karst Groundwater in the Beijing Xishan Area].

As an important water supply source in Beijing， karst groundwater has played an irreplaceable role in the security of urban water supply and ecological environment protection in the past 70 years. The Xishan karst groundwater system， located in the upper reaches of western Beijing， belongs to ecological conservation areas. There are several centralized water supply fields in this area. In this study， the Xishan karst groundwater system was taken as the research object. A total of 120 karst groundwater samples in this area were investigated by using statistical analysis， ion ratio， and principal component analysis （PCA） methods to explore the spatial distribution characteristics and formation mechanism of groundwater hydrochemistry. The research results showed that： ① the groundwater quality of the Xishan system was generally good， with the characteristics of neutral pH and low salinity. A total of 84.17% of the water samples were classified as hard water. The chemical type of groundwater was mainly HCO
