Pandanduri Dam waters has an essential function for the community made the activities of the surrounding community inseparable from the Pandanduri Dam that made potentially quality change of the Pandanduri Dam waters. Good water quality is an important requirement for humans that made water quality research is essential to be done. Human activities will affect environmental factors such as biological parameters, especially phytoplankton, which are indicators of water quality. The aim of this study was to analyzed water quality of Pandanduri Dam through study of phytoplankton community and diversity. Sample sites were determined based on haphazard sampling method and phytoplankton data were analyzed based on the shannon-weiner diversity index. The results showed that the phytoplankton community identified in Pandanduri Dam consisted of 5 classes, 13 orders, and 31 species with  species diversity index of 2,659. Based on fitoplankton diversity index value the water of  Pandanduri Dam was in lightly polluted category. It is suggested to more detailed studies should be undertaken especially on species that produce toxins over a longer time scale.

The present study investigated the water quality of Shitalakhya River, phytoplankton abundance, diversity and the effect of pollutants on phytoplankton as well as the primary productivity. The water of the collected samples was mostly alkaline (7.01-8.2) and showed a wide range of variation in EC (1171-2700 ?S/cm), TDS (576-1345 mg/L), DO (0.92-2.7 mg/L), free-CO2 (15-31 mg/L), BOD (12.03-28.38 mg/L) and COD (101.2-109.2 mg/L).  A total of 62 species were identified of which 9 belonged to Chlorophyceae, 11 Cyanophyceae, 14 Euglenophyceae and 28 Bacillariophyceae. Among all the members, Bacillariophyceae were found to be dominant and lowest of Chlorophyceae indicates that this group is more sensitive to the pollutants discharged by the industry.

In order to study the effects of the newly-built ecological spur dikes on spring phytoplankton in Wangyu River, a riverway of water diversion project from Yangtze River to Taihu Lake, triple samplings were carried out in eleven sites from the near and upper water around the ecological spur dikes in April and May, 2011. The samples were collected to investigate the species and density of phytoplankton. Meanwhile, some environmental factors, such as temperature, pH, total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP) were determined. Indices of Simpson (D), Shannon-Wiener (H), Pielou (J) and Margalef (Dm) were used to analyze the change regulations of phytoplankton diversity. H, J, Dm were also used to evaluated the water quality, and they were 2.873, 0.532, 3.037. The results indicated that the composition of phytoplankton species was similar to the typical character of large or medium rivers. Based on the diversity indices, higher biological plankton diversity and better water quality emerged near the dikes. Results of this research supplied a theory for building ecological spur dikes to improve water quality of large or medium rivers and also provided a basis of using phytoplankton to monitor changes of water quality.

The physico-chemical and phytoplankton characteristics of the Tons River were analyzed during August 2011-July 2012. The samples were collected from Garhi Cant (Site 1) and Tapkeshwar temple (Site 2) at Dehradun. The results showed that temperature, velocity, DO, nitrate and phosphate affected the phytoplanktonic diversity of river Tons. Thirty five genera of phytoplankton belonging to three families of Chlorophyceae, Bacillariophyceae and Myxophyceae were also identified in the river water. The family Bacillariophyceae was dominating the river with much abundance throughout the study period. Bacillariophyceae was recorded with the maximum of 222.25±90.84 Unit/L at sampling site 1 and 239.08±125.41 Unit/L at sampling site 2. The greater number of individuals was in family Bacillariophyceae (239.08±125.41 Unit/L) followed by Chlorophyceae (183.75±112.50 Unit/L) and Myxophyceae(40.91±36.16 Unit/L) during the study period. Both the number of genera and number of individuals belonging to each genera was maximum in case of family Bacillariophyceae followed by Chlorophyceae and Myxophyceae. The present study revealed that the water quality of river Tons was fairly good for the growth and survival of phytoplankton, and as a result it sustains the higher phytoplankton diversity of Tons river.

An ectoparasitic infection is one of the causes of losses for the farmers of red tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). This study was aimed to determine the types of parasites, the level of attack includes the prevalence, intensity and dominance of ectoparasites in red tilapia by adding fermented copra meal to the feed. The research was carried out at the Maros Fish Farming Center, South Sulawesi, while observing parasites in fish were carried out at the BRBAPPP Fish Pathology and Health Laboratory, Maros. The treatments were tested by addition of fermented copra meal as follows: (A) 0% control; (B) 15%; (C) 30% and (D) 45%. The experimental feed was applied to the fish once a day by satiation. The parameters observed were 1) identification of parasites; 2) prevalence rate; 3) attack intensity; 4) dominance and 5) water quality. A total of 30 tilapia from containers were taken to observe the fish organs included, ectoparasites were observed using a smear method on the target organ (gills, scales and fins and eyes), then examined microscopically. The ectoparasites were identified based on Kabata (1985), Grabda (1981) and Moller and Anders (1986). The result found two types of parasites namely Argulus sp. and Epistylis sp. The result of the prevalence of Argulus sp. of treatments A, B, and D were obtained (3.33%) and intensity (1 ind/fish) except that Treatment C was obtained prevalence and intensity (0%). While the highest prevalence rate of Vorticella sp. in A (Control) was 20% (frequent infections) while other treatments were still relatively low at 3.33% - 13.3% (sometimes infections) with intensity of attacks 0-1 ind / fish (low infection rate). The dominance value in all treatments ranged from 0.1 to 0.85%. The range of water quality of fish container were temperature 26.3-29.2 °C, pH 7.5-7.8, DO 5.8-6.4 ppm and ammonia 0.02-0.26 ppm. The value was within good range for Red Tilapia.

Availability of raw water is one of the problems faced in the provision of clean water services in Indonesia. The purpose of this study was to determine differences in the quality of ordinary well water and drill water with physical parameters test. The number of samples in this study was 12 drill wells and 12 ordinary wells belonging to residents in the City of Parepare and the total were 12 villages. The parameters observed refer to the Indonesian Minister of Health Regulation Number 479 / Menkes / Per / IV / 2010 concerning Water Quality Requirements and Supervision which includes physical parameters such as turbidity. Data collection methods used in this study were cross sectional analysis in South Sulawesi Provincial Health Laboratory Makassar. Based on the results of the laboratory test for measuring water quality as measured by one of the physical parameters, namely turbidity, there is a difference in value between ordinary wells and boreholes. The turbidity values ​​measured in ordinary wells are 3 villages that do not meet the requirements of clean water quality, where all of the results are above the maximum set level of> 5 NTU, the villages is watang Soreang village, Lompoe village and Galung Maloang village while the turbidity value is measured in drill wells are the result that meets the requirements of clean water quality where the results do not exceed the maximum set level of 5 NTU.

Abstract Water is a vital component for living, but its distribution is uneven and becomes hard to obtain in some places. Generally, people use water sources from PDAM, rivers, wells, and springs. Springs are often used as a source of water which are used by the community. Unfortunately, the spring and its surrounding area are often disturbed, and their function is changed. Even though several activities have shifted the land cover around the spring area, it affects the spring's water quality. The study aims to find out the condition of the springs which are used by the people at Gowa Regency. The data was collected through a survey, and the spring sampling was carried out purposefully. Furthermore, the data were analyzed descriptively. The study showed that springs are still an important source of water for rural communities. The results showed that the water quality of springs was feasible for household and other purposes. We found that the community seemingly has low awareness of preserving the spring. The area around the spring has been disturbed by community activities that are prone to polluting the springs.
