Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
The groundwater is the main water resources of the industry, agriculture and drinking water in the Northwest China, with the development of the economy and society in Northwest China, the polluting hazard to the phreatic aquifer is becoming much serious, the protection and preservation of groundwater resources are compulsory, particularly in the arid semiarid region like the Northwest China. This article studies the characteristics of the groundwater construction and produces groundwater vulnerability and risk maps for Yinchuan plain by DRASTIC mode. The data that correspond to the 7 impact factors of the model from the field investigation and the test, the result of vulnerability assessment is reasonable compared to the practice. There are 3 zones that are identified: moderate, high and very high, the result provides the real theoretical basis for the strategy in risk assessment of preventing contamination of phreatic aquifer in Yinchuan Plain.
