The aim of present investigation was to analyze the variations in the physio-chemical properties of the ground water of Cuttack district Odisha. In the present study 98 samples were collected and analyzed to assess the quality of ground water. The pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total hardness and total alkalinity of the collected 98 samples were in the range of 4.6-7.3, 36-4550 μS/cm, 40-200 mgl-1, 20-680 mgl-1 respectively. Similarly, the other important water quality parameters such as; chloride, nitrate sulphate and phosphate concentration were varies between BDL-327, 1.8-86.25, BDL-194 and BDL to 3.2 mgl-1 respectively. The pH of the alluvial groundwater is controlled by the HCO3. The fluoride concentration was varies from BDL to 2.38 mgl-1. Apart from few samples, 90.81% fluoride contaminated samples comes under the category of quality group A (< 1 mgl-1flouride). Similarly, out of total samples collected only in three samples the uranium concentration estimated to be more than 5ppb. Among the water quality parameters there exist a positive correlation between pH and fluoride with a correlation coefficient of 0.641. From the correlation analysis it is found that, higher concentration of fluorid correlated with higher pH. Similarly the correlation coefficient between calcium and chloride is very high i.e. 0.500, which strongly supported the existence of calcium in the study area is predominantly in the form of CaCl2. Most of the ground water samples meet the requirements of the WHO drinking water standards with respect to salinity, main constituents and potentially toxic trace elements such as uranium

Abstract In this research, Water Quality Index and Multivariate Statistics Techniques was carried out on fourteen water quality parameters collected quarterly (four times/year) from nine water sources in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India for one year (May 2019- April 2020). The Water Quality Parameters (WQP) included are the concentration of hydrogen ion (pH), Electrical conductivity, Turbidity, Total dissolved solids (TDS), Total Hardness, Total Alkalinity, Calcium, Sulphate, Chloride, Magnesium, Iron, COD, DO, and BOD. The Water sample collected shows that the mean values of physicochemical parameters are in the range of WHO and BIS except for Hardness in summer (1,680 mg/L); monsoon (832.22 mg/L); winter (1,876.66 mg/L); spring (1,535.55 mg/L), TDS in summer (1,000.33 mg/L); monsoon (683.44 mg/L); winter (1,087.66 mg/L); spring (776.66 mg/L) and sulphate (927.22 mg/L); monsoon (446.77 mg/L); winter (925.77 mg/L); spring (944.88 mg/L) which indicate the bad quality of water. The WQI values were calculated for three locations at different weather conditions. WQI values in summer, winter and spring are 630.90, 279.61, 279.91 shows that river water is not suitable for drinking purpose whereas the WQI value in monsoon is 75.89 shows that water is fit for drinking purposes due to the dilution of river water. A moderate positive correlation was observed for turbidity with total hardness, iron, total alkalinity, and sulphate. Negative Correlation was observed with pH. Moderate Correlation was seen with TDS-EC (0.608), TDS-Alkalinity (0.7794), EC-Ca (0.723) and strong was observed for BOD-DO (0.941) and Ca-Mg (0.999). Principal Component Analysis revealed that five factors were significant (eigen value &gt; 0.5) with total variance of 39.43%–85.19% respectively. The ICP-MS study of water sample from point source indicate the presence of Ni2+, Cr6+, Co2+, Mn2+, Cu2+, Zn2+ ions at higher concentrations.

Kolleru lake is one of Asia’s largest freshwater lakes, which has undergone tremendous changes in the water quality due to the sewage, pollution and development of aquaculture in its surrounding area. This study is undertaken to evaluate the present water quality scenario existing in Kolleru lake, which has been affected seriously due to the anthropogenic disturbances since long. Water samples were collected from ten sampling locations within the lake during pre and post-monsoon seasons of 2017-18. A total of 11 water quality parameters were analysed such as pH, temperature, EC, TDS, TSS, total alkalinity, total hardness, dissolved oxygen, salinity, COD, and nitrates. Parameters were estimated by using a standard protocol of APHA 2012. The spatial distribution maps of water quality were generated from pre and post monsoon data using Arc GIS software. Spatio-temporal variation of all parameters indicated that the water quality found was unsatisfactory within the Kolleru lake. The present study shows the better water quality in the post-monsoon season. The Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) interpolation spatial mapping was also used for water quality mapping to observe the environmental variation for protecting the important freshwater ecosystem-Kolleru lake. The outcome of GIS analysis demonstrated the spatial visualization of the lodging evolution and geographical distribution trends of water quality parameters within the study area.
