| Abstract: | Electric conductivity and the activities of the Na+, Ca2+, Cl–, and F– ions were determined in the thermal spring waters, the surface waters of the Kuchiger swamp massif, the waters accumulated on the soil surface after heavy rains in the concave topographic elements of the alluvial plains, the waters of a streamlet that originates in the Barguzin Range, the waters of the Indikhan River, and the groundwaters. Indicator parameters of different water types were determined to significantly vary within Ulyunkhan depression. Narrow ranges were determined for the variations in the composition of the hot springs and wide ones were found in the composition of the warm and cold springs. Statistical distributions of the measured parameters of the swamp waters were shifted toward higher values compared to those of the discharged thermal waters. The following three features of the spatial distribution of water composition indicators have been identified: (1) a spotty character, (2) a trend in the water composition in the direction of transit according to the general slope of the terrain, and (3) a trend of increasing salt content in the waters near the outer shoreline of the swamp massif and around islands within it.
