Kondisi kualitas air suatu perairan yang baik sangat penting untuk mendukung kehidupan organisme yang hidup di dalamnya. Penentuan status mutu air perlu dilakukan sebagai acuan dalam melakukan pemantauan pencemaran kualitas air. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji status mutu air laut berdasarkan konsentrasi parameter surfaktan dan minyak di perairan Distrik Depapre, Kabupaten Jayapura. Pengambilan sampel air laut dilakukan di lima stasiun penelitian, kemudian hasilnya dibandingkan dengan baku mutu air laut untuk biota laut berdasarkan KEPMEN-LH No. 51 Tahun 2004. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konsentrasi surfaktan di perairan Distrik Depapre berkisar antara 0,08–0,22 mg/L, sedangkan konsentrasi kandungan minyak berkisar antara 0,14–0,41 mg/L. Berdasarkan baku mutu air laut, konsentrasi surfaktan dan minyak belum melampaui baku mutu dan masih sesuai untuk biota laut di perairan Depapre, Kabupaten Jayapura. Hasil penelitian ini memberikan informasi bahwa kondisi perairan Depapre belum tercemar oleh limbah surfaktan dan minyak. Namun tidak menutup kemungkinan bahwa konsentrasi tersebut dapat terus meningkat, sehingga perlu upaya lebih lanjut dari pemerintah dan masyarakat untuk meminimalkan jumlah limbah surfaktan dan minyak yang masuk kelingkungan perairan laut. Good water quality is critical to support the life of organisms. The determination of water quality status was needed as a reference to monitor water pollution. This study aimed to assess the condition of water quality based on the concentration of surfactant and oil parameters in the Depapre waters, Jayapura Regency. Sampling was carried out in five research stations; then the results were compared with water quality standards based on KEPMEN-LH No. 51 Tahun 2004 for marine biotas. The result showed that the concentration of surfactant in Depapre waters was 0.08–0.22 mg/L, while the oil concentration was 0.14–0.41 mg/L. Based on water quality standards, surfactant and oil concentration has not exceeded the quality standards and are suitable for marine biotas in Depapre waters, Jayapura Regency. Results showed the condition of  Depapre waters had not been polluted by surfactant and oil waste. However, it does not rule out the possibility that the concentration can increase so that it needs further efforts from the government and the community to minimize the amount of surfactant and oil waste entering the marine environment.

Abstract This research aims at using a combined water quality index (WQI) and pollution index (PI) to assess and characterize river water quality of Cau River which is one of the longest rivers in the north of Vietnam. Five different water quality and water pollution indices were used including the Water Quality Index (WQI), Comprehensive Pollution Index (CPI), Organic Pollution Index (OPI), Eutrophication Index (EI), and Trace Metal Pollution Index (TPI). The combined water pollution indices show more serious pollution towards the river downstream. In particular, CPI and OPI reveal a high risk of eutrophication. Cluster analysis was applied to classify water monitoring points into different quality groups in order to provide a better understanding of the water status in the river. This study indicates that a combined water quality analysis could be an option for decision making water use purposes while its single index shows the current situation of water quality.

The main objective of the research is a complex assessment of the actual ecological status of Salgir River waters based on several methods: visual survey of the watercourse as well as studying spatial and temporal transformation of water quality and determining the degree of water pollution by means of an integral criterion –water pollution index (IES) and bioassay techniques carried on seeds of two test crops (cress salad and wheat), and also zoning a watercourse according to several criteria. The assessment found a tendency to increasing degradation of water quality due to the increase of the anthropogenic load (increase in water abstracted from the river). The typical pollutants in the Salgir river are petroleum products, phosphates, lead, copper, biological oxygen uptake (BOU5). Phosphate content is in the range of 5.5–27.5, lead – 3.06–6.67, copper –1.02–4.52 MPC. The most powerful source of pollution of the river is the treatment facilities of Simferopol. The results of this comprehensive study made it possible not only to reflect the real situation at the water facility, but also to highlight sections of the river where a set of measures aimed at reducing/preventing the consequences of anthropogenic impact should be carried out as a priority.

The ecological status of six selected rivers which are found around central Ethiopia and North Shewa Zone and exposed to environmental stresses at varied extent, was studied using biological quality elements (BQE). One thousand one hundred thirty three (1133) individuals of macroinvertebrates, from 22 families and 5 orders of insects, were collected from the rivers. Seven metrics that had low correlation (p>0.05) were selected to calculate the final B-IBI and the result showed that both sites of Akaki, Sebeta and Jemma Rivers had poor water quality whereas Beresa, Chacha and Mojo (upstream site) had relatively better water quality. Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) showed that Tabanidae, Syrphidae, Culicidae, and Canidae was more strongly correlated with temperature but strongly and negatively with pH, Dissolve Oxygen (DO) and Nitrate. The result implied that the change in abundance of these groups of macroinvertebrates could indicate the change in pH, DO and Nitrate. pH and DO were significantly (p < 0.05) and positively correlated with % Ephemeroptera and% Baetidae. On the other hand, DO showed strong but negative correlation % Oligochaeta, % Non-Insect and Hillsenhoff Family Biotic Index which implied that that the change in pH and level of organic pollution can be easily monitored using these metrics.HYDRO Nepal JournalJournal of Water Energy and EnvironmentIssue: 20Page: 49-54
