Karawang area is well known as an agriculture area and 2% area is utilized for industries. Clean water demands increase due to developing industry development and population increasement. The origin of groundwater is necessary to keep the sustainability of water resources in this area. Stable isotopes such as 18O and 2H can be used as a parameter to trace the ground water origin. The methods used were Epstein-Mayeda and Zinc reduction for analysis 18O and 2H, respectively. Sampling period was conducted in major dry season in year 2002. The result showed that evaporation effect had influenced to the content of both isotopes in its shallow groundwater that caused a slope shift from its local meteoric line. The origin of its shallow groundwater was from rainwater infiltrating directly in less than 10 m altitude. Citarum River showed more depleted values in both isotopes compared to shallow groundwater and it indicated that its water might originate from spring at the altitude of 600 m.     Keywords: oxygene-18, deuterium, groundwater, isotope

The study aims at assessing groundwater contribution to the streamflow at the small permafrost Shestakovka river watershed in Central Yakutia. Water from stream, lakes, snow, rain, surface flow and suprapermafrost groundwater is characterized by specific isotopic signature. At least one third of the spring flood is formed by “old” pre-event water as showed by mixing model based on stable isotopes as tracers. Presence of talik aquifers associated with sandy hills covered by pine forest suggests that talik groundwater could be an important source of streamflow at the small river basin in continuous permafrost.
