This study  aims to understand the local wisdom and the feasibility of the area as an ecological tourism object has been carried out from February to March 2018. The method used in this study is the survey method. Water quality data collection was carried out four times (once/two weeks), while questionnaires were distributed prior to environmental data collection. Water samples were taken from three stations, while local wisdom data were collected through questionnaires. Results shown that the community used to maintain the Jorong Ikan Banyak ecosystem by applying regulations for fish capture. Water quality parameter values of the Lubuk Larangan are as follows : temperature was 22.5-230c; water depth was 71.75-120.25 cm; current speed  was 0.25-0.42 m/s; dissolved oxygen was 4.6-4.8 mg/l and pH was 6. The tourism potential element scores of the Lubuk Larangan were as follows:  Attractiveness 1,095; Accessibility 537.5; Accommodations 45 and Facilities 240, total score  1,917.5. This score indicates that the Lubuk Larangan Jorong Ikan Banyak  is suitable for tourism object.

This study aimed to understand the local wisdom and the feasibility of the area as an ecological tourism object. The research has been carried out from February to April 2018. Water quality data collection was carried out four times (once/two weeks), while interviews and questionnaires were distributed prior to environmental data collection. Water samples were taken from three stations, while local wisdom and ecotourism data were collected through the interview and questionnaires. The results showed that the shown that the community used to maintains the Jorong Landai ecosystem by applying regulations for fish capture and fish harvesting system. The water quality parameter in the Lubuk Larangan was as follows: the temperature was 21-22 0C, the current speed was 0.04-0.5 m/s,  water depth was 44-82 cm, dissolved oxygen was 4.46-5.78 Mg/L and pH was 6. The value ecotourism of the feasibility index was as follows: attractiveness was 945, accessibility was 587.5, the social-economic condition was 462.5, accommodation was 0, infrastructure was 180 and the availability of clean water was 870 (total value was 3,045). This value indicates that the Lubuk Larangan Jorong Landai can be categorized as appropriate for ecotourism object.

Nine runoff containment basins (RCBs), used directly or indirectly for irrigating plants in ornamental plant nurseries, and one adjacent stream were sampled for water quality between Feb. and July 2013 in Maryland (MD), Mississippi (MS), and Virginia (VA). Triplicate water samples were taken monthly. Analysis was done for 18 water quality variables including nitrate-nitrogen (NO3−-N) and ammonium-nitrogen (NH4+-N), orthophosphate-phosphorus (PO4-P) and total-phosphorus (T-P), potassium, calcium, magnesium, sulfur, aluminum, boron (B), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese, zinc (Zn), pH, total alkalinity (T-Alk), electrical conductivity (EC), and sodium. Additionally, 15 RCBs from 10 nurseries in Alabama (AL), Louisiana (LA), and MS were sampled in 2014 and 2016. Most prevalent correlations (P = 0.01) were between macronutrients, EC, B, Fe, and Zn, but none were prevalent across a majority of RCBs. Water quality parameter values were mostly present at low to preferred levels in all 25 waterways. Macronutrient levels were highest for a RCB that receives fertility from fertigation derived runoff. Water pH ranged from acidic to alkaline (>8). Results of this study show water quality in RCBs can be suitable for promoting plant health in ornamental plant nurseries, but also shows levels will vary between individual RCBs, therefore demonstrates need to verify water quality from individual water sources.
