Identification of sources and transport pathways heavy metals major ions is crucial for effective water quality monitoring, particularly in large river systems. The Ganges basin, the largest most populous basin India, remains poorly studied this regard. We conducted a basin-level analysis ions, metals, stable isotopes nitrate during pre-monsoon season to constrain quantify inorganic chemical co...

The potential of four different neuro-fuzzy embedded meta-heuristic algorithms, particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, harmony search, and teaching–learning-based optimization was investigated in this study estimating the water quality Yamuna River Delhi, India. A cross-validation approach employed by splitting data into three equal parts, where models were evaluated using each part. m...

The concentrations of toxic effluents released into freshwater aquatic environments are increasing day by day and affect the aquatic biota. The present study outlined the evaluation of physicochemical parameters such as water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), phosphates (PO42--P), nitrates (NO3--N), electrical conductivity (EC)...

The River Yamuna is one of the largest rivers in northern India. It serves as a major source potable water to National Capital Delhi. A study was carried out monitor and quantify three common antibiotics surface water, with help Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC) coupled Mass spectrophotometer (MS/MS)-based method. All river locations research area were sampled triplicate determine ...

The Ganga Plain represents a large proportion of the current foreland 14 basin to the Himalaya. The Himalayan-sourced waters irrigate the Plain via major river 15 networks that support approximately 10% of the global population. However, some of 16 these rivers are also the source of devastating floods. The tendency for some of these 17 rivers to flood is directly linked to their large scale mo...
