rivers can be contaminated with different pollutants such as trout farms. evaluation of the effect of trout farm on water quality is important to give new permission for trout farm construction. in current work, the effect of constructed trout farms near the deinachal river on some physicochemical properties namely chemical oxygen demand (cod), biological oxygen demand (bod5), dissolved oxygen ...

twenty water samples from a river system in southern caspian sea basin werecollected and analyzed for physicochemical parameters and metals (cu, zn, as, cd, pb, ni andmn). in order to evaluate the risk potential of metal pollution in river water, use of two indicesnamely heavy metal pollution index (hpi) and contamination index (cd) accompanied by clusteranalysis was taken in to consideration. ...

Heavy metal pollution dispersion simulation in rivers and predicting spatial and temporal variations of pollutants can be used to determine the precise place and to schedule water withdrawal time for drinking, agriculture, aquaculture and ecosystem studies. To study the movement of heavy metal pollution through Karoon flow model, MIKE 11 was employed fpr simulation of the flow model of Karoon R...

Abstract: The Second Songhua River is the biggest river system in Jilin Province, China. In recent years, the rapid economic development in this area has increased the prominence of water resources and water-related environmental problems; these include surface water pollution and the overexploitation of groundwater resources. Bank infiltration on the floodplains of the Second Songhua River is ...

background: qual2k is a stream water quality model and was used to evaluate the water quality of the kine-vars river and assess the response of the river to nutrient management strategies. methods: for that purpose, 7 sample stations were selected and surface water samples were collected in the winter and summer of 2012 and were analyzed for temperature, dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen dema...

Elevated stream temperature is a primary factor limiting the coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) population in California’s Shasta River Basin. Understanding the mechanisms driving spatial and temporal trends in water temperature throughout the Shasta River is critical to prioritising river restoration efforts aimed at protecting this threatened species. During the summer, the majority of stream...

Background Access to clean and safe drinking water is still a problem in developing countries and more pronounced in rural areas. Due to erratic supply of potable, rural dwellers often seek for an alternative source of water to meet their basic water needs. The objective of this study is to monitor the microbiological and physicochemical water quality parameters of Nzhelele River which is a maj...

Non-native lake trout, Salvelinus namaycush (Walbaum), threaten native salmonid populations in the western United States. Effective management of lake trout requires understanding movements within connected lake and river systems. This study determined the seasonal movements of subadult lake trout in the Flathead River upstream of Flathead Lake, Montana, USA using radio telemetry. The spatiotem...

This study was conducted to elucidate microbiological characteristics of river water and groundwater communities in order to improve our conceptual and predictive understanding of river and groundwater ecosystem processes, functioning and management. Rouge River bacterial communities from shallow groundwater and river water were screened using Biolog Ecoplates, which test for oxidation of selec...
