It is increasingly important to know the water quality of a reservoir, given prospect an environment poor in reserves, which are based on intense and short-lived precipitation events. In this work, vegetation indices (NDVI, EVI) bio-physical parameters (LAI, FC), meteorological variables, hydrological data considered as possible drivers spatial temporal variability (WQ) Banja reservoir (Albania...

In this study, different optical, physical and chemical measurements were tested for their capacity to detect changes in water quality. The tests included UV-absorbance at 254 nm, absorbance at 420 nm, turbidity, particle counting, temperature, pH, electric conductivity (EC), free chlorine concentration and ATP concentration measurements. Special emphasis was given to investigating the potentia...

background: rivers and streams are important sources of surface waters. water quality of these resources depends on many factors including hydrologic, physicochemical and biological factors. these resources are important in terms of social, economic and political development.. zayanderood river is the only river in central basin of iran that has permanent fresh water. this river has an importan...

the problems of shortages and quality deterioration of water, have led to an increased interest in the reuse of treated grey water in many parts of the world. this study examined the suitability of locally available materials (beach sand, oyster shells, and charcoal) to treat grey water samples collected weekly from three halls of residence (unity hall, africa hall, and independence hall) on kw...

Water quality complaints related to particulate matter and discolored water can be troublesome for water utilities in terms of follow-up investigations and implementation of appropriate actions because particulate matter can enter from a variety of sources; moreover, physicochemical processes can affect the water quality during the purification and transportation processes. The origin of partic...

drinking water quality can be deteriorated by microbial and toxic chemicals during transport, storage and handling before using by the consumer. this study was conducted to evaluate the microbial and physicochemical quality of drinking water from bottled water coolers.a total of 64 water samples, over a 5-month period in 2012-2013, were collected from free standing bottled water coolers and wat...

this study was conducted to evaluate the quality of the groundwaters and the impact of geological units on these waters in hastijan area. for this purpose, 11 samples of water resources have been collected with their appropriate dispersal. physico-chemical parameters of mn, ni, cd, cu, zn, as fe, cr, and ions k+, na+,ca2+, mg2+, cl-, so42-, hco3- as well as indicators th, tds, ec, ph were deter...

Pollution accidents that occur in surface waters, especially in drinking water source areas, greatly threaten the urban water supply system. During water pollution source localization, there are complicated pollutant spreading conditions and pollutant concentrations vary in a wide range. This paper provides a scalable total solution, investigating a distributed localization method in wireless s...

to know the water quality characteristics of tehran subterranean canals, from 20 feb. 1978 to 23 sept. 1978, samples were taken from 23 of them by simple random sampling without replacement, and were analyzed according to the 14th edition of standards method for the examination of water and waste water 1975. arithmetic average concentration of water analyses of 23 subterranean canals were drawn...
