Spatial Variability of Best Management Practices Effectiveness on Water Quality within the Yazoo River Watershed

Effectiveness of best management practices in improving water quality in a pasture-dominated watershed

The nonpoint source pollution problem can be controlled by implementing various best management practices (BMPs) in the watershed. However, before such practices are adopted, their effectiveness at various spatial and temporal scales must be evaluated. The objective of this research was to evaluate a suite of BMPs in a pasture-dominated watershed in their effectiveness at controlling nutrient l...

Spatial and Temporal Variability of Water Quality for Karun River, in Upstream and Downstream Gotvand Dam

In this study, the spatial and temporal variability of water quality including monthly series of TDS, EC, So4, Cl, Ca and Na in common statistical period 1993-2014 was evaluated for the Karun River. This assessment is based on qualitative data stations including Susan in the upstream of Gotvand reservoir, Gotvand, Mollasani and Ahvaz in the downstream. To determine the parameters trend process,...

Impact of Yangtze River Water Transfer on the Water Quality of the Lixia River Watershed, China

To improve water quality and reduce the negative impacts of sudden inputs of water pollution in the Lixia River watershed, China, a series of experimental water transfers from the Yangtze River to the Lixia River were conducted from 2 December 2006 to 7 January 2007. Water samples were collected every six days at 55 monitoring sites during this period. Eight water parameters (water temperature,...

Testing Forestry Best Management Practices for Protecting Water Quality in

Water quality monitoring of the Pirapó River watershed, Paraná, Brazil.

This study aimed to evaluate the water quality of the Pirapó River watershed in Paraná, Brazil, and identify the critical pollution sites throughout the drainage basin. The water quality was monitored during the period from January 2011 to December 2012. Nine points distributed throughout the main channel of the Pirapó River were sampled for a total of 17 samplings. The water quality was evalua...
