Improved water pollution index for determining spatiotemporal water quality dynamics: Case study in the Erdao Songhua River Basin, China

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...

1 WATER POLLUTION TRADING SYSTEMS FOR IMPROVED RIVER WATER QUALITY : The Case of Unlike Pollutants

Evaluation of base flow separation methods for determining water extraction (Case study: Gorganroud River Basin)

Water Quality Analysis of the Songhua River Basin Using Multivariate Techniques

Multivariate statistical techniques, including cluster analysis (CA), principal component analysis (PCA), factor analysis (FA) and discriminant analysis (DA), were used to evaluate temporal and spatial variations and to interpret a large and complex water quality data sets collected from the Songhua River Basin. The data sets, which contained 14 parameters, were generated during the 7-year (199...

Determining the best water quality model for the rivers in north of Iran (case study: Pasikhan River)

The aim of this paper is to study the popular models used for the simulation of major elements of a water quality system. The present study compares results of the CE-QUAL-W2 model with the WASP5 and MIKE11 models to assess the water quality of Pasikhan River. The contaminant loadings of Nitrate and Phosphate are utilized in the CE-QUAL-W2, WASP5 and MIKE11 simulations. This study is the first ...
