The PO 4concentrations in the river water are very high Purpose of the Study because there is no wastewater treatment system in this The purpose of this study is to analysis on the spatial region yet. In the interests of the health of local distribution of chemical and physical properties of the residents it is necessary to add sewage treatment. The collected water using Geographic Information Systems high NO concentration in the water samples indicates and compared with WHO standard. 3 that the shallow aquifer near settlements is already Materials and Methods challenged by the problem of pollution related probably Database of the water samples for the the middle Part with the decomposition of household wastes. From the of the Ayeyarwady Delta were collected from 06th to geomorphology it is to suggest that the ponds in the 09th January 2010. Most water samples were taken study area are mainly recharged by shallow with a bucket the surface water from wells, reservoirs groundwater. High salinity of the ponds water is caused and rivers. We were measured through EC and pH in by intrusions of river water. the field and iron concentrations, isotopic and deuterium composition of all water samples are Miyaoka,K., Haruyama,S., Hlaing, K.T., and Kuzuha, Y., analyzed. Chemical water analysis included the 2009. Assessment Physical and Chemical Characteristics of Groundwater in the Ayeyarwady River Delta, Myanmar, determination of PO 4, NO 2, Br, NO 3, SO 4, HCO 3, NH 4, K, Mg, Cl, Na, EC, pH, 18 O and tritium isotopes.
