Use of Water Quality Index and Spatial Analysis to Assess Groundwater Quality for Drinking Purpose in Ardakan, Iran
Introduction: Due to water scarcity and increased water consumption during the past years, the importance of water in terms of transmission of diseases, as well as Iran's climate, groundwater aquifers are known as the most important resources of drinking water supply. Using the Water Quality Index (WQI) is considered as strong managerial tool for decision making in water resource management. Th...
متن کاملAssessment of Groundwater quality using Water Quality Index
Fifty sampling stations have been identified and water samples were collected from June to May 2008, to know the groundwater quality of Greater Visakhapatnam city using Water Quality Index. The samples were analyzed for the physico-chemical parameters like Temperature, pH, Conductivity, Total dissolved solids, Dissolved Oxygen, Hardness, Calcium, Magnesium, Alkalinity, Chloride and Nitrate. The...

F This is one of a series of information sheets prepared for each country in which WaterAid works. The sheets aim to identify inorganic constituents of significant risk to health that may occur in groundwater in the country in question. The purpose of the sheets is to provide guidance to WaterAid Country Office staff on targeting efforts on water-quality testing and to encourage further thinkin...
متن کاملGroundwater Quality Zoning for Agricultural and Drinking Usage Using Water Quality Index and Geostatistics Techniques in Semnan Watershed
Determination of water quality is an essential issue in water resources management and its monitoring and zoning should be considered as an important principle in planning. In this study, in order to investigate the quality of groundwater resources (springs, wells and qanats) in Semnan watershed, first, the water quality index for drinking and agricultural purposes was obtained by means of meas...
متن کاملSpatial Variability of Groundwater Recharge and its Effect on Shallow Groundwater Quality in Southern New Jersey
ity in the Glassboro, NJ area (Fig. 1). The Darcian method was used to estimate groundwater recharge Point estimates of groundwater recharge at 48 sediment-coring from water-retention parameters and unsaturated hylocations vary substantially ( 18.5–1840 cm yr 1) in a 930-km2 area of southern New Jersey. Darcian estimates of steady, long-term recharge draulic conductivity on the basis of sedimen...
