( 35) According to Todd，stable hydrogen and oxygen isotopes occurring in groundwater are of important significance in studies of the origin of groundw ater.
( 36) In practice， this approach is not particularly effective because aquitard compressibilities in expansion have only about one-tenth the value they have in compression.
