Times Cited Count:5 Percentile:21.26(Geochemistry & Geophysics)Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) for C analysis of groundwater is usually extracted by a gas-strip or precipitation method. In this study, the certainty of the two methods for C dating were confirmed. DIC and C concentrations obtained by the gas-strip method were close to the theoretically predicted C value. Conversely, the C value obtained by the precipitation method always showed higher values than the predicted values. The difference in C value between gas-strip and precipitation methods was assumed to arise owing to contamination of modern carbon used in the precipitation method. The applicability of the precipitation method for groundwater should be considered carefully according to the DIC, C concentration of groundwater and purpose of the study being conducted.

C concentration in dissolved inorganic carbon is available index to infer groundwater residence time. We confirmed precision and accuracy during DIC collection methods such as degassing and precipitation by using NaHCO solution and natural groundwater.

Water chemistry, isotopes and chlorofluorocarbons in groundwater down to a depth of 500 m were monitored in the Mizunami Underground Research Laboratory (MIU), Japan. The monitoring of water chemistry for more than 10 years shows the increase of shallow water infiltration in UHFD at depths between 200 - 400 m. Based on 3H and CFCs concentrations the mixing proportion of shallow groundwater was estimated up to about 50 %. On the other hand groundwater in LSFD at the depth of 500 m was identified relatively isolated condition from the hydraulic disturbance by the facility construction. The residence time of the isolated groundwater was estimated 18 - 25 ka by C.

Groundwater dating using C, He, noble gas method was conducted in Mizunami Underground Research laboratory. The availability of degassing method for , flux estimation method for He were examined. It was identified that the groundwater have been derived in glacial age. The integration of distinct dating method is available to estimate precise age of groundwater.

Groundwater dating was conducted to Mizunami Underground Research Laboratory (MIU). C age and He age were estimated about 20,000 years around MIU. The estimation of noble gas temperature is also conducted. The estimated recharge temperature is around 6C. This temperature is about 9C cooler than present annual average temperature, which agree with estimation of modern analog method conducted near MIU.
