Quality of Groundwater in the Shallow Aquifers of a Paddy Dominated Agricultural River Basin, Kerala, India
Groundwater is an essential and vital component of our life support system. The groundwater resources are being utilized for drinking, irrigation and industrial purposes. There is growing concern on deterioration of groundwater quality due to geogenic and anthropogenic activities. Groundwater, being a fragile must be carefully managed to maintain its purity within standard limits. So, quality a...
متن کاملDemarcation of Groundwater Prospective Zones in Humid Tropical River Basin: A Geospatial Approach
Groundwater, being a vital resource, needs to be developed with proper understanding about its occurrence in time and space. Unscientific sand mining is a dominant environmental issue in this humid tropical river basin namely Bharathapuzha river basin geographically on central part of Kerala state, southwest part of India. The sandy layers along the river course declines its water holding capac...
متن کاملEvaluation of Groundwater Chemistry of a Central Kerala River Basin, India using Multivariate Analysis
Statistical processing of data was necessary to arrive at a reasonable conclusion regarding the chemical behavior of groundwater in a river basin. Multivariate analysis was done to elucidate the groundwater chemistry of a Central Kerala River basin. Hydrochemical parameters like EC, pH, TDS, TH, Ca, Mg, Na, K, Cl, F, HCO 3 +CO 3 , SO 4 , total Fe were estimated in the pre- monsoon and post-mons...
متن کاملIcthyofaunal Diversity of Bharathapuzha River at Palakkad District, Kerala
Aquatic populations interact with the physico-chemical and biological factors in their habitat. Any change in the habitat can induce stress on the life forms. The major water bodies and rivers in Kerala are not free from the pollution stress of varying degrees due to the influx of effluents from nearby factories, pesticides and fertilizers from cultivating areas, besides urban and rural sewages...
متن کاملAquifers and hyporheic zones: Towards an ecological understanding of groundwater
Ecological constraints in subsurface environments relate directly to groundwater flow, hydraulic conductivity, interstitial biogeochemistry, pore size, and hydrological linkages to adjacent aquifers and surface ecosystems. Groundwater ecology has evolved from a science describing the unique subterranean biota to its current form emphasising multidisciplinary studies that integrate hydrogeology ...
