djendjen river is one of the largest rivers in the region of jijel (algeria). human activities such as urban discharges, industrial, agricultural, and livestock have significant effects on the quality of water. the present study attempts to evaluate the quality of water along the banks of the djendjen river at different sampling sites, using physico-chemical and bacteriological methods. the col...

prediction of spatial and temporal variation of water quality is vital for managing pollutantsdisposal into the rivers. depletion of dissolved oxygen (do) takes place due to the consumption of oxygen bymicrobes to digest bio-degradable pollutants which enter a water course. reaeration takes place in a specificrate depending on do deficit. many investigators have formulated models as an alternat...

769 Humans have long been fascinated by the dynamism of free-flowing waters. Yet we have expended great effort to tame rivers for transportation, water supply, flood control, agriculture, and power generation. It is now recognized that harnessing of streams and rivers comes at great cost: Many rivers no longer support socially valued native species or sustain healthy ecosystems that provide imp...

Background & Aims of the Study: The use of qualitative indicators is one of the ways of water quality of river water. The purpose of this study is Khorramrood River of Khorramabad of water quality using water quality index (NSFWQI) and GIS that is a Geographic Information System . Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional study, qualitative parameters needed to calculate NSFW...

considering the water scarcity in iran and the importance of environmental protection, it is approperiate to investigate the environmental management of siah-rud river. it is a small river being utilized as discharge channel by factories located in the vicinity of the river. the physico-chemical characteristics of river water at 10 different sampling locations 'along with coefficient of ae...

localization of underground dams was carried out at garmab seasonal river basin at golestan research station. this project aims to localize and investigate places for establishing subsurface dam in order to control and store underground stream water for the station and study purposes. the methodology was based on studying documents and field research sampling, drilling and analyzing necessary s...

The environmental requirement of the river is the amount of water to maintain natural ecological conditions and health of quality of the river water. In this study, to estimate the environmental water requirement of Karoun River, Dez, Great Karoun and Beheshtabad sub-basin (upper Karoun) using hydrological Montana method and offers based on frequency analysis of hydrological flow normally and u...

This paper deals with the ecological assessment of river quality and its relationship to integrated catchment management. The concept of catchment or river basin management has been a basic management tool in England and Wales since 1990; it is now being enshrined in the Water Framework Directive. Historically the statutory and operational drivers in the UK have lead to the development of disti...

In order to investigate the temporal and spatial variations of 14 physical and chemical surface water parameters in the Nhue and Day sub-river systems of Vietnam, surface water samples were taken from 43 sampling sites during the dry and rainy seasons in 2007. The results were statistically examined by Mann-Whitney U-test and hierarchical cluster analysis. The results show that water quality of...

The levels of two aromatic amine mutagens, 2-[2-(acetylamino)-4-[bis(2-methoxyethyl)amino]-5-methoxyphenyl]-5-am ino-7-bromo-4-chloro-2H-benzotriazole (PBTA-1) and 2-[2-(acetylamino-4-[N-(2-cyanoethyl)ethylamino]-5-methoxyphenyl]-5-a mino-7-bromo-4-chloro-2H-benzotriazole (PBTA-2), were quantitatively analyzed in the Yodo River system in Japan. The river water samples were collected at nine sam...
