Rumput laut merupakan salah satu komoditas unggulan sektor perikanan. Salah satu sentra budidaya rumput laut yang akan dikembangkan adalah Kabupaten Rote Ndao, yang memiliki ketersediaan perairan potensial untuk pengembangan budidaya rumput laut. Kajian kesesuaian perairan untuk budidaya rumput laut perlu dilakukan untuk keberlanjutan budidaya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji karakteristik dan kesesuain perairan untuk pengembangan budidaya rumput laut di Teluk Mulut Seribu, Rote Ndao. Pengambilan data kualitas perairan dilakukan dengan pengukuran langsung dan mengambil sampel untuk dianalisis di laboratorium. Distribusi spasial kualitas perairan di area kajian diinterpolasi menggunakan metode IDW dengan perangkat lunak ArcGIS. Ada 4 parameter yang diperhitungkan dalam analisis spasial, yaitu: kedalaman, kecepatan arus, kecerahan dan alur layar, yang ditumpangsusun tanpa pembobotan untuk mendapatkan peta kesesuaian. Sementara itu beberapa parameter lainnya tidak masuk dalam analisis spasial karena kisaran nilainya sudah sesuai untuk budidaya rumput laut. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa kesesuaian lahan untuk budidaya rumput laut di perairan Mulut Seribu mencapai 56% atau 497,68 hektar dari 879,18 hektar area kajian. Area yang sesuai untuk budidaya rumput laut tersebut memiliki potensi panen hingga 50 ton per siklus.Seaweed is one of the leading commodities in fisheries sector. In Rote Ndao regency, plans to develop seaweed aquaculture centers have been advised considering the regency’s potential coastline areas for seaweed farms. However, a site suitability study is needed to determine if the area is suitable for seaweed aquaculture to ensure its long term sustainability. This study was aimed to examine the characteristics and suitability of Teluk Mulut Seribu waters in Rote Ndao for seaweed cultivation. Data collection on water quality parameters was done via in-situ measurement and samples were collected to be analysed ex-situ in the laboratory. The full extent of spatial distributions of water quality parameters was determined using IDW interpolation tool available in ArcGIS. The four parameters used in the spatial analysis, namely: depth, current velocity, brightness, and sea transportation line were overlaid using non-weighted arithmetic mean operation to create a final composite of suitability map. The other measured parameters were not included in the spatial analysis because the value ranges were considered suitable for seaweed cultivation. The results showed that 56% or 497.68 ha from 879.18 ha of seascape in Teluk Mulut Seribu are suitable for seaweed farming.This study recommends that these suitable areas can be used for seaweed aquaculture with a predicted harvest potential up to 50 ton per culture cycle.

The objective of the present work is a spatial analysis aimed at supporting hydrological and water quality model applications in the Canale d’Aiedda basin (Puglia, Italy), a data-limited area. The basin is part of the sensitive environmental area of Taranto that requires remediation of the soil, subsoil, surface water, and groundwater. A monitoring plan was defined to record the streamflow and water quality parameters needed for calibrating and validating models, and a database archived in a GIS environment was built, which includes climatic data, soil hydraulic parameters, groundwater data, surface water quality parameters, point-source parameters, and information on agricultural practices. Based on a one-year monitoring of activities, the average annual loads of N-NO3 and P-PO4 delivered to the Mar Piccolo amounted to about 42 t year−1, and 2 t year−1, respectively. Knowledge uncertainty in monthly load estimation was found to be up to 25% for N-NO3 and 40% for P-PO4. The contributions of point sources in terms of N-NO3 and P-PO4 were estimated at 45% and 77%, respectively. This study defines a procedure for supporting modelling activities at the basin scale for data-limited regions.

The present work illustrates the potential application of techniques of spatial analysis via geographic information systems (GIS) to categorize the distribution of temporal and spatial of water prediction characteristics to determine the water quality parameters of the Shatt Al-Arab River (SAA), southern Iraq. Eight main water quality parameters and three heavy metals were measured from December 2018 to October 2019. The total dissolved solids, chloride, sulfate, and total hardness were compared with previous data that were measured from 2014 to 2018 based on data availability. The geochemical characteristics were also investigated to analyze water quality parameters. The study was performed by selecting eleven stations according to the nature areas of SAA. Water samples were acquired from the eleven stations for four seasons (winter of 2018 through autumn of 2019). Results revealed that total dissolved solids ranged between 950 to 8500 mg/L, total hardness varied from 400 to 2394 mg/L as calcium carbonate (CaCO3), the sulfate ranged from 149 to 1602 mg/L, and chloride ranged from 330 to 3687 mg/L. The results showed that SAA had high salinity with a low hazard of sodicity. The SAA waters mainly fall below the Dolomite-Magnesite tie-lines which indicated the dissolution of carbonate rocks. This research also found that the study area confined from Al-Maqal station to Abu Flus port station where the salty marine water coming from the Arabian Gulf remains for longer periods. The SAA is not suitable for drinking and irrigation water according to Iraqi and World Health Organization (WHO) standards. This study suggested building a blocking dam downstream of the SAA to prevent salty water from coming back from Arabian Gulf.

The present study assessed water quality parameters and attempts to compare four different Water Quality Indexes (WQIs) for consistency, similarity and reliability in assessing the water quality of river Benue -an inland river- under wet and dry seasons. The results demonstrate that River Benue is continually being polluted in both dry and wet seasons by different sources, particularly domestic sewage and storm runoffs from farmlands. The quality of the water generally exceeded physiochemical and microbiological infection risk limits recommended in water quality guidelines concerning their use for domestic, recreational and irrigational purposes. Proper sewage treatment and river quality monitoring are needed to guard against hazards to public health and vulnerable river water resources. The WQIs applied were: CCME WQI, BC WQI, Dinius’ WQI and Weighted Arithmetic WQI. To evaluate the differences between these indexes, data on ten water quality parameters (Temperature, pH, total dissolved solids, electrical conductivity, Nitrates, Phosphates, biochemical oxygen demand, dissolved oxygen and faecal coliform count) for two distinct seasons from 6 river monitoring sites along the river Benue at Makurdi reach, were used. Significant discrepancies were observed in classification results between the Dinius’ WQI and the other three WQIs. Similarly, the WA and BC WQIs showed an over-optimistic rating due to their eclipsing limitation. Among others, it was concluded that any of the four indexes except Dinius’ index can be adopted but the CCME water quality index would be best suited for assessing water quality in River Benue.

Abstract Water Quality Index elucidates the complexity in assessing water quality by converting the results of various parameters into a single number for a precise interpretation of the condition of concerning water. The present study focuses on implementing Multi-Criteria decision-making techniques, namely, Analytical Hierarchy Process and Analytical Networking Process, in estimating the relative weighted significance values of the water quality parameters based on three novel criteria like Cost, Potability, and Taste. The suggested Water Quality Index technique utilizes these weighted values of the water quality parameters in depicting and expressing the water quality level in the form of an index value. Dissolved Oxygen has emerged as the most persuasive factor in evaluating water quality for drinking purposes in this study. This paper has also suggested modifying the standard weighted arithmetic water quality index for higher accuracy in results. Furthermore, Sensitivity analysis is performed to corroborate the Multi-Criteria Decision Making approach in index assessment. The accuracy of the Water Quality Index analysis shall improve if a fixed set of criteria and their preference are asserted and justified based on which the water quality parameters are ranked. Their weighted significance values will be estimated accordingly.

<p>The objective of the present study was to assess the water quality of canal (man-made lotic waterbody) and ponds (man-made lentic waterbodies) present in Narmada Canal Command Area (NCCA) spread over four districts of Saurashtra region of Gujarat State,<em> viz.</em> Bhavnagar, Botad, Morbi, Surendranagar districts. Values of important physico-chemical parameters of water quality were determined through <em>in situ</em> and <em>ex situ</em> methods. Average values of parameters like pH (8.51), temperature (27.91 °C), electrical conductivity (6.32 ms/cm), TDS (559.18 ppm) turbidity (147.95 NTU), salinity (3.17 ppt) and phosphates (3.41mg/l) were found to be higher for pond waters, whereas the average values of DO (6.09 mg/l), total hardness (308.00 mg/l) and nitrates (2.37 mg/l) were found to be higher for the canal waters in the NCCA in the four districts. The study revealed that water quality of canals in the four districts was suitable for flora and fauna. For some ponds (n = 6) in Bhavnagar, Surendranagar and Morbi districts, the majority of water quality parameters, viz. pH, temperature, electrical conductivity, TDS, turbidity, salinity and phosphates had high values which might be undesirable from the view point of existence of some aquatic organisms. But as the values of these parameters for canal waters were lower and suitable for aquatic organisms, it is very likely that in the long run, the values of these water quality parameters of such ponds will become suitable for aquatic biota under the influence of long-term mixing of pond waters with canal waters having lower values of these parameters.</p>
