地下水是干旱區(qū)地下水依賴型生態(tài)系統(tǒng)（Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems）維持的根本，其中淺層地下水位的動態(tài)、地表水/地下水之間的轉(zhuǎn)換過程，以及生態(tài)植被與地下水環(huán)境之間的關(guān)系研究是干旱區(qū)生態(tài)系統(tǒng)保護(hù)的基礎(chǔ)。
近期，中國科學(xué)院地理科學(xué)與資源研究所于靜潔研究團(tuán)隊通過在我國黑河流域下游額濟(jì)納地區(qū)開展地表水/地下水動態(tài)監(jiān)測、降水-地表水-地下水水化學(xué)與同位素分析，以及植被生態(tài)變化的野外調(diào)查與監(jiān)測，構(gòu)建了額濟(jì)納盆地地下水流系統(tǒng)的循環(huán)模式，
他們提出了額濟(jì)納三角洲地表水/地下水相互轉(zhuǎn)化的典型模式，量化了額濟(jì)納河流滲漏補給地下水的關(guān)鍵參數(shù)，并獲取了生態(tài)植被空間格局與地下水環(huán)境之間的統(tǒng)計關(guān)系。
相關(guān)研究成果先后發(fā)表于水文學(xué)及生態(tài)水文學(xué)國際期刊Journal of Hydrology、Hydrological Processes、Ecohydrology、Environmental Earth Sciences和Marine and Freshwater Research。
