Abstract
The results of the study of the main characteristics and structural features of the aquifer systems of cold and thermal waters on the example of well-known sources in the Middle East are presented. The study of groundwater aquifers was carried out on the basis of the technology of geophysical data complex interpretation, taking into account the features of the aquifers geological structure. Aquifers and underground reservoirs are visualized as zones of reduced magnetization and density of rocks on deep petrophysical sections calculated from magnetic field and gravity anomalies. Horizontal subterranean water conduits can be clearly traced on the areal distributions of magnetization and density along the stretches of the lineaments with reduced values. Vertical subterranean water conduits stand out vividly on magnetic and density sections in the form of ascending tracks. As a result of the study of deep sections through the zones of known thermal springs, an estimate of the dependence of the source temperature on the depth of the feeding underground reservoirs was obtained. The article examines the potential of underground resources aquifers of the arid territories of Israel, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, for which the relevance of the water problem, apparently, will not decrease in the coming decades. The forecast of the location of groundwater karst reservoirs can be carried out by magnetic and density sections, taking into account two-dimensional models of the distribution of magnetization and density of rocks. The methodology of the study of aquifer systems is applicable to the analysis of underground resources of Africa and the Middle East arid regions.
