How to prepare a Shukalev classification chart/table to define the groundwater types?
Chuck A Arize
Collect Data: Gather the concentrations of key ions like Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Cl⁻, SO₄²⁻, and HCO₃⁻ in the groundwater samples. Calculate Ionic Ratios: Calculate the ratios of major cations and anions (e.g., Ca²⁺/Mg²⁺, Na⁺/Ca²⁺) to categorize the water type. Refer to Shukalev's Classification: Plot the values on the chart/table, which groups groundwater into types based on the ion concentrations, typically distinguishing between types like Na-Cl, Ca-HCO₃, and Mg-SO₄. Interpret: Classify the samples based on their positions in the chart/table, which helps in identifying the dominant hydrochemical processes (e.g., ion exchange, evaporation).

Shukalev, A. A. (1963). Hydrochemical Classification of Groundwater. Moscow: Nauka. Read about it the reference. It will help you fantastically.
