To implement the remote and real-time monitoring of surface water pollution, a design scheme of water quality monitoring system based on GPRS technology is put forward, which is composed of monitoring terminal, monitoring center and communication network. The various parameters of surface water are acquired using water quality detection sensor terminal and uploaded to the remote monitoring center via GPRS module by monitoring, and then the water quality parameters acquisition, processing and wireless transmission are realized. Water quality parameters are received through the internet network by the monitoring center, to realize its remote monitoring and management. According to the practice result, the system has materialized functions on GPRS service platform, such as real-time water quality parameters acquisition, procession, wireless transmission, remote monitoring and management, which is suitable for surface water pollution continuous monitoring and has the good application in the future.

The study was conducted to spatiotemporally analyze the quality, location and critical water variables influencing water quality using water monitoring data from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Dong Thap province in 2019. The water quality parameters including turbidity, pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), total suspended solids (TSS), biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), nitrite (N-NO2−), nitrate (N-NO3−), ammonium (N-NH4+), total nitrogen (TN), orthophosphate (P-PO43−), chloride (Cl−), oil and grease, sulfate (SO42−), coliforms, and Escherichia coli (E. coli) were collected at 58 locations with the frequency of four times per year (February, May, August, and November). These parameters were compared with national technical regulation on surface water quality—QCVN 08-MT: 2015/BTNMT. Water quality index (WQI) was calculated and spatially presented by geographical information system (GIS) tool. Pearson correlation analysis, cluster analysis (CA), and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to evaluate the correlation among water quality parameters, group and reduce the sampling sites, and identify key parameters and potential water pollution sources. The results showed that TSS, BOD, COD, N-NH4+, P-PO43−, coliforms, and E. coli were the significant concerns impairing the water quality. Water quality was assessed from poor to medium levels by WQI analysis. CA suggested that the current monitoring locations could be reduced from 58 sites to 43 sites which can be saved the total monitoring budget up to 25.85%. PCA showed that temperature, pH, TSS, DO, BOD, COD, N-NH4+, N-NO2−, TN, P-PO43−, coliforms, and E. coli were the key water parameters influencing water quality in Dong Thap province’s canals and rivers; thus, these parameters should be monitored annually. The water pollution sources were possibly hydrological conditions, water runoff, riverbank erosion, domestic and urban activities, and industrial and agricultural discharges. Significantly, the municipal and agricultural wastes could be decisive factors to the change of surface water quality in the study area. Further studies need to focus on identifying sources of water pollution for implementing appropriate water management strategies.

Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a), total nitrogen (TN), and total phosphorus (TP) are important indicators to evaluate water environmental quality. Monitoring water quality and its variability can help control water pollution. However, traditional monitoring techniques of water quality are time-consuming and laborious, and can mostly conduct with sample point-to-point at the edge of lakes and rivers. In this study, an empirical (regression-based) model is proposed to retrieve Chl-a, TN, and TP concentrations in the Yangtze River by Landsat-8 images from 2014 to 2020. The spatial-temporal distribution and variability of water quality in the whole Yangtze River are analyzed in detail. Furthermore, the driving forces of water quality variations are explored. The results show that the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of the water quality parameters are 25.88%, 4.3%, and 8.37% for Chl-a, TN, and TP concentrations, respectively, and the root mean square errors (RMSE) are 0.475 μg/L, 0.110 mg/L, and 0.01 mg/L, respectively. The concentrations of Chl-a, TN, and TP in the upstream of the Yangtze River are lower than those in the midstream and downstream. These water quality parameters have a seasonal cycle with a maximum in summer and minimum in winter. The hydrological and meteorological factors such as water level, flow, temperature, and precipitation are positively correlated with Chl-a, TN, and TP concentrations. The larger the impervious surface and cropland area, the greater the cargo handling capacity (CHC), higher ratio of TP to TN will further pollute the water. The methods and results provide essential information to evaluate and control water pollution in the Yangtze River.

A study was conducted to evaluate the water quality parameters of pond water at Mymensingh Urban region. The water samples were collected from 30 ponds located at Mymensingh Urban Region during August to October 2010. The chemical analyses of water samples included pH, EC, Na, K, Ca, S, Mn and As were done by standard methods. The chemical properties in pond water were found pH 6.68 to 7.14, EC 227 to 700 ?Scm-1, Na 15.57 to 36.00 ppm, K 3.83 to 16.16 ppm, Ca 2.01 to 7.29 ppm, S 1.61 to 4.67 ppm, Mn 0.33 to 0.684 ppm and As 0.0011 to 0.0059 ppm. The pH values of water samples revealed that water samples were acidic to slightly alkaline in nature. The EC value revealed that water samples were medium salinity except one sample and also good for irrigation. According to drinking water standard Mn toxicity was detected in pond water. Considering Na, Ca and S ions pond water was safe for irrigation and aquaculture. In case of K ion, all the samples were suitable for irrigation but unsuitable for aquaculture.J. Environ.

Monitoring of environmental factors allows the achievement of some important objectives regarding water quality, forecasting, warning and intervention. The aim of this paper is to investigate water quality parameters in some potential pollutant sources from northern, southern and east-southern areas of Romania. Surface water quality data for some selected chemical parameters were collected and analyzed at different points from March to May 2017.

This study was conducted in order to understand the taste and odour problems that occurred in the Seine and the Marne rivers during the severe drought of 1976. Samples were taken every 15 days from several locations in the rivers themselves and from storage reservoirs upstream from Paris. Algae and actinomycetes were identified and counted. Metabolite concentrations were measured. These data were correlated with threshold odor numbers and bacteriological water quality parameters.

Since 2013, there has been an increase (>23%) in naval traffic using maritime routes and ports on the coastal fringe of Santa Marta, Colombia. Of major concern, and described by several studies, is the relationship between maritime traffic and coastal contamination. This study proposed a maritime traffic indicator considering the simultaneous effects of several relevant measurements of water quality parameters to estimate the impact of naval activity. The approach involved developing a model including the number of vessels, hull length, and permanence time in berths. In addition, water quality variables, considering climatic seasons, were used to verify association with maritime traffic and touristic activities. The high concentrations of total coliforms (TC) and dissolved/dispersed petroleum hydrocarbons in chrysene equivalents (DDPH) reported by the International Marina of Santa Marta (SM) were affected by the local anthropic activities, including tourism, naval traffic, and urban wastewater discharges. Moreover, our results suggest the occurrence of multiple chemical impacts within Tayrona National Natural Park (PNNT) affecting conservation goals. The estimation of the maritime traffic indicator proposed in this study may be an easy and more complete tool for future studies evaluating the impact of naval activities on environmental quality.
