چکیده
In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the water quality of Çoruh Basin using BMWP (Biological Monitoring Working Party) index, ASPT (Average Score Per Taxon) Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index, EPT (Ephemeroptera Plecoptera Trichoptera taxa), EP taxa) index scores and benthic macroinvertebrates. The macroinvertebrates were collected from 54 stations at basin between 2014-2016 years. Standard hand net (D-frame net) Ekman-Birge grab used as sampling tools. As a result diagnoses, total 7246 individuals belonging Insecta, Crustacea, Mollusca, Oligochaeta Plathyhelminthes obtained. It determined that most dominant group Insecta rarest Plathyhelminthes. observed score ranged 5 94, lowest highest number families detected in 1 18, respectively. Shannon Wiener diversity value 0.54-2.20, therefore streams generally showed moderate pollution. results show had mostly 3rd 4th class also biodiversity decreases with deterioration riverbed or exposure

Assessment of water quality in Blinaja River Basin (Kosovo) using the Canadian Water Quality Index (WQI)
Kosovo has limited natural water resources which should be well managed. This is recently realised through quantitative and qualitative monitoring of both surface and groundwater and by characterizing their quality according to their destination. In this paper, the Water Quality Index (WQI) developed by the Canadian Council of Environment Ministers (CCME WQI) was applied to evaluate the groundw...
متن کاملWater quality indices based on bioassessment: the biotic indices.
Water quality indices (WQIs), which translate numerical values of several water quality characteristics of a sample into a single value, play a very important role in the monitoring, comparison and control of water quality. The WQIs of modern and post-modern times have been almost exclusively based on physical and chemical characteristics, and have seldom included 'biological' characteristics o...
