Water shortage is a common problem in the high density settlement along the riverbank of Ciromban and Cibeureum River, Tasikmalaya, as the quality of the water also decreases. One of the solution is to maximize the use of river water. This study aims to investigate the interaction between river and groundwater along the riverbank as a function of land use impact. A river water and unconfined groundwater level mapping has been conducted to make water flow map, assuming both waters are in the same flow system. Physical parameters, temperature, TDS, and pH were measured at each stations to understand water characteristics. Based on observations at 50 dug wells and 12 river stations on July-August 2014, a close interaction between both water bodies has been identified with two flow systems: effluent flow (or gaining stream) at Cibereum river segment and influent flow (losing stream) at Ciromban river segment. Physical parameters show a high correlation in temperature, pH, and TDS. Hence, further evaluation from health point of view should be taken before using river water as raw water supply in Tasikmalaya area.

Hydrogeochemical and isotopic composition of river and groundwater in Kandi and Sirowal belts of Jammu District in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir was carried out to understand the recharge source and chemical nature of these waters for drinking water quality criteria. Physical parameters (temperature, pH, Total dissolved solids, total hardness and electrical conductivity), major cations and anions (Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, HCO3-, Cl-, SO42-, NO3-) and stable isotopes (d18O and d2H) inTawi river and groundwater samples from hand pumps and tube wells were measured. The dominant cation is Ca2+ and the dominant anion HCO3- implyingCaHCO3type water in both river and groundwater. To assess the quality of water for drinking purposes, Groundwater Quality Index (GWQI) has been calculated. The GWQI indicates that Kandi and Sirowal belts are showing “Excellent” to “Good” category for drinking purposes. The stable isotopic composition of river water and groundwater is indicative of meteoric origin and enrichment before groundwater recharge. The stable isotopes in water suggest that the active canals in Sirowal belt,and rainfall and river water near the banks in Kandi belt contribute to ground water recharge.

Abstract Pattunuang asue Nature Tourism Object is a primary destination at Bantimurung Bulusaraung National Park. Visitors of Pattunuang asue used the Pattunuang river to conduct their activities, such as swimming, bathing, river tubing, and also used the river water for drinking and cooking. However, using river water for these activities needs to fulfill standard water quality for tourism activities and drinking water. Therefore, this study aims to determine the quality of the Pattunuang river water. Data of physical parameters and conditions of river water were conducted using the survey method. We also collected water samples using the purposive sampling method. Furthermore, these samples were analyzed at the laboratory to measure other physical data such as total suspended solids (TSS) and total dispended solids (TDS), chemical, and microbiology. Data were analyzed following water quality parameters, compared to several regulations regarding water quality standards for tourism and drinking water. The results showed that the Pattunuang river water fulfills most of the standard of physical quality for tourism and drinking water, except TDS. However, some chemical parameters exceeded the threshold for tourism and drinking water. Microbiology parameters meet the standard requirements for several regulations but did not meet the requirements for water that can be drunk directly. Furthermore, this study discussed how to overcome this problem.

Sungai Cisangkan merupakan sungai yang mengalir di Kota Cimahi yang menerima limbah domestik, industri, dan pertanian yang berasal dari daerah aliran sungai. Perkembangan industri dan pemukiman di sepanjang aliran sungai menyebabkan kualitas air sungai menurun. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kualitas air Sungai Cisangkan berdasarkan baku mutu menurut PP Nomor 82/2001 kelas 2. Analisis kualitas air dilakukan di 3 titik mewakili bagian hulu, tengah dan hilir sungai.  Data dikumpulkan  pada 3 periode pengambilan yaitu Bulan April, September, dan Desember 2019. Parameter yang diukur dan diamati sebanyak 32 parameter yang terdiri dari parameter fisika, kimia, dan mikrobiologi. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian terdapat 16 parameter yang tidak memenuhi baku mutu terdiri dari 2 parameter fisika, 14 kimia, dan 2 mikrobiologi. Berdasarkan parameter yang tidak memenuhi bakumutu sumber pencemar dominan diprediksi berasal dari aktivitas pemukiman karena nilai BOD5, COD, TSS, minyak dan lemak, detergen MBAS, Total Coliform serta fecal Coliform tidak memenuhi baku mutu di seluruh titik sampling pada 3 kali pengukuran. Hasil penelitian dapat dijadikan sebagai data dasar pengelolaan limbah cair domestik di DAS Cisangkan Kota Cimahi.  Kata kunci: Cimahi, Cisangkan, domestik, kualitas air. The Cisangkan River is a river that flows in Cimahi City which receives domestic, industrial and agricultural waste originating from the watershed. Industrial and residential developments along the river have caused the quality of river water to decline. This study aims to analyze the quality of Cisangkan River water based on quality standards according to PP No. 82/2001 class 2. Water quality analysis was carried out at 3 points representing the upstream, middle and downstream parts of the river. Data were collected in 3 periods of collection, namely April, September, and December 2019. The parameters measured and observed were 32 parameters consisting of physical, chemical, and microbiological parameters. Based on the research results, there are 16 parameters that do not meet the quality standards consisting of 2 physical parameters, 14 chemistry, and 2 microbiology. Based on the parameters that do not meet the quality standards, the dominant pollutant sources are predicted to come from residential activities because the values of BOD5, COD, TSS, oil and fat, detergent MBAS, Total Coliform and fecal Coliform do not meet the quality standards at all sampling points at 3 measurements. The results of the research can be used as basic data for domestic liquid waste management in the Cisangkan River Basin, Cimahi City. Keywords: Cimahi, Cisangkan, domestic, water quality.

Directional changes in environmental conditions during individual stages of the succession of lakes should determine the character of the aquatic beetle fauna inhabiting them. Can changes in environmental conditions lead to degradation of fauna and to a deterioration of the ecological quality of lakes? We analysed this problem in 40 lakes. The fauna of the lakes proved to be rich and diverse in terms of species. Deterioration of species richness along successional stages was not observed, but distinct changes were noted in faunal composition. The eurytopic component proved stable, whereas changes in specialised components (i.e. lake and river species and tyrphophiles) were of key importance. The formation of beetle communities in the lakes was influenced to a greater extent by environmental factors, namely substrate, macrophyte structure and Sphagnum mat cover, than by the physical parameters of the water (pH, saturation or conductivity). The lakes proved to be of considerable ecological value. Regardless of the stage of succession, they are a habitat for numerous species, including rare and endangered ones. Hence, on the one hand humic lakes play an important role in local biodiversity, whereas on the other hand they may be perceived as refuges for species in environments that could be restored as a result of beneficial measures.

Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the bacteriological quality of water sources in the two rural areas of Uganda using the compartment bag test (CBT). In total, 200 water samples were collected from 69 different water sources and processed within 6 h of collection. Positive and negative controls were processed each day together with water samples. Physical parameters were measured in situ. Descriptive statistics were used to generate mean, minimum, maximum, standard deviations and percentages. The results indicated that 29% of the water sources met the National Standards and World Health Organization (WHO) Guidelines for drinking water. Sixty percent of the borehole, 44% of gravitational flow taps and 14% of roof rain water met the required standards. Of the open water sources, 75% of the rivers, 50% of open channels and 43% of unprotected dug wells plus 25% of protected springs and 9% of gravitational flow schemes had most probable number counts >100 Escherichia coli/100 mL of water. Most of the water sources in the study areas were not fit for human consumption without prior treatment. The CBT was found to be robust and easy to use in all field situations. The mean physical parameters of water sources were within the acceptable limits.

AbstrakSungai Klampok mengalir melalui Kecamatan Bergas dan sekelilingnya terdapat beberapa industri sehingga mengakibatkan sungai tersebut tercemar karena menjadi badan penerima air limbah. Akibat penurunan kualitas air Sungai Klampok akan berimbas pada penurunan kualitas air tanah yang digunakan oleh penduduk sekitar sungai tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kualitas air tanah yang berada di sekitar Sungai Klampok sebagai akibat adanya pengaruh beban pencemaran oleh air limbah industri berdasarkan Permenkes No. 416/MENKES/PER/IX/1990 tentang persyaratan kualitas air bersih. Lokasi pengambilan sampel air sungai dibagi menjadi 3 stasiun (LK1, LK2 dan LK3) sedangkan untuk sampel airtanah dari rumah-rumah penduduk dilakukan pada 6 titik yaitu 3 titik di daerah utara dari Sungai Klampok (U1,U2, U3) dan 3 titik di daerah selatan dari Sungai Klampok (S1,S2, S3). Pengambilan sampel dilakukan pada musim kemarau. Dari hasil uji kualitas air sungai, pencemaran yang terjadi pada air sungai Klampok masuk dalam kategori tercemar ringan-sedang. Sedangkan hasil uji kualitas air tanah masih berada di bawah baku mutu yang disyaratkan oleh Permenkes No. 416/MENKES/PER/IX/1990, sehingga penurunan kualitas air sungai Klampok tidak mempengaruhi kualitas air tanah di sekitar sungai tersebut. AbstractThe Klampok River flows through the Bergas Subdistrict and there are a number of industries around it, causing the river to become polluted because it becomes the body of the recipient of wastewater. As a result of the decline in the quality of the water in the Klampok River, it will impact on the quality of groundwater used by residents around the river. This study aims to determine the quality of groundwater around the Klampok River as a result of the influence of pollution load by industrial wastewater based on Permenkes No. 416 / MENKES / PER / IX / 1990 concerning requirements for clean water quality. The location of river water sampling is divided into 3 stations (LK1, LK2, and LK3) while for groundwater samples from residential houses is carried out at 6 points, namely 3 points in the northern area of Klampok River (U1, U2, U3) and 3 points in the area south of the Klampok River (S1, S2, S3). Sampling is done in the dry season. From the results of the test of river water quality, pollution that occurs in Klampok river water is categorized as mild-moderate polluted. While the results of groundwater quality testing are still below the quality standards required by Permenkes No. 416 / MENKES / PER / IX / 1990 so that the decline in the water quality of the Klampok river does not affect the quality of groundwater around the river.

Objectives : 17 water quality measurement networks (WQMNs, tributaries) in Seoul were analyzed by using NSFWQI and cluster analysis to provide basic data for future river water quality management so that citizens could easily and comprehensively understand the water quality information on the rivers in Seoul.Methods : For the past 3 years (2015~2017), in order to estimate WQI, 9 items, DO (% sat), Fecal coliform, pH, BOD, Temperature change (TC), TP, NO3-, Turbidity and Total solids, were selected from among the 19 water quality data measurement items produced monthly from 17 WQMNs in Seoul. WQI was derived and graded using NSFWQI and cluster analysis was performed using Ward Linkage Method, SOM (Self Organizing Map).Results and Discussion : Water quality of most water quality monitoring networks was BOD Ⅱ grade (slightly good) or higher and TP Ⅲ grade (normal) or higher according to the standard of water quality and water ecosystem river living environment, and NSFWQI was also 64 (Medium)~89 (Good). All showed good water quality. NSFWQI does not show a significant difference by season, so it is believed that it is affected by anthropogenic sources rather than seasonal effects. As a result of examining the correlation between NSFWQI and water quality level according to environmental standards, it was confirmed that R2 has a relatively good correlation with 0.78, and there is no clear difference between the two groups, and through this, it was found that the currently implemented water quality rating system and NSFWQI are well matched. As a result of cluster analysis using ward linkage method and SOM for 17 WQMNs, it was largely divided into 6 groups according to water quality characteristics.Conclusions : It is important to manage pollution sources to systematically manage river water quality as a water resource. It is therefore expected that by converting from the complicated and various water quality information such as is found in this study into a simple water quality index and grouping, the river water quality can be easily understood and can be utilized in the future as basic data for water quality management in Seoul.
