Abstract

The southern foot slope of the Galunggung volcano in Leuwisari subdistrict and surrounding, Tasikmalaya, Indonesia, is abundant in springs. These springs are crucial to the community since they provide water for both domestic and agricultural purposes. However, the hydraulic connection between these springs is still unknown. This study aims to investigate the hydraulic connectivity of springs based on their chemical composition in response to the problem. In order to achieve the goals, the physicochemical characteristics and geochemistry of eight spring in the research region were investigated. The chemical composition of water was classified using the Kurlov formula and presented using fingerprint, composition, and Piper diagrams. The results indicate that the chemical compositions of all spring samples are almost the same and do not change considerably for most characteristics from upstream to downstream, with Cijambe spring being the lone exception. Based on this situation, it is possible to deduce that the Cijambe spring is associated with the shallow aquifer system. Meanwhile, the other seven springs are hydrologically related and associated with the deeper aquifer system. On the other hand, all spring water may originate from a weathered basalt, as shown by the springwater geochemistry assessment. Therefore, the water facies of spring in the study area is mainly classified as Ca-Mg-HCO3 water. Finally, the hydraulic connectivity of these springs may serve as the basis for the management and development of groundwater in the study area.
