This study focuses on the different physical and chemical water quality parameters of two catchment areas centring on the extent of water pollution in the two basins. Data containing physical and chemical water quality parameters for the Crocodile (West) Catchment area (Gauteng) and the Berg Catchment area (Western Cape) at reconnaissance level of detail were collected from the Department of Water Affairs (DWA) over a period of 5 years, 2007–2011. The relevant data were screened and sorted using the SPSS Software Version 2.0. The data were subjected to ANOVA statistics to search for significant variations in the water quality parameters of concern across the study period in each of the catchment area. The physical and chemical analyses were carried out to determine whether the water quality falls within the total water quality range as prescribed by DWA and WHO for domestic use. Pearson correlation analyses were used to determine the relationship between physical and chemical water quality parameters and the rainfall data over the study period.

Gracilaria sp is red alga which belong to class rhodophyceae. It can grow in shallow salt water with a general characteristic is having a cylindrical and branched thallus form. Seaweed cultivation can be performed through IMTA (Integrated Multi Trophic Aquaculture) method. The basic principle of cultivation through the IMTA method is utilizing service of the low thropic level species in marine ecosystems, such as shells and seaweed.  This method is believed to be able to overcome the environmental problems caused by cultivation activities, such as feces and uneaten feed. This research was perfomed 45 days, from February 25 to April 11, 2017. It was held at Geger Beach, Nusa Dua, Badung Regency, Bali, using a complete randomized design method that consist of three treatments and three repetition for each treatment. Treatment control (T1) consisted of 10 bunches of seaweed 100 grams without the abalone, treatement 2 (T2) consisted of 10 bunches of seaweed 100 grams and 20 abalones and treatement 3 (T3) consisted of 10 bunches of seaweed 100 grams and 40 abalones. The result showed that specific growth rate in Gracilaria sp.  was highest in treatment T1, compared to treatment T2 and T3. This was caused by the cage construction of abalone amd the present of small mesh size net to cover the seaweed  planting, which made the growth was not optimal.  However, the use of a nets system in seaweed cultivation could minimize the loss of thallus. It was proved by the survival rate of seaweed in first, second and third, that is averagely high, ranging from 90% to 100%. Physical and chemical water quality parameters are also measured, and It showed that the water quality was suitable for the cultivation of both, seaweed and abalone.

Abstract Increasing population growth is one of the impacts of the growth of a city or district in an area. This also happened in the Cimahi watershed area. As the population grows, so does the need for land which increases the land-use change in the Cimahi watershed. Land-use changes will affect the surrounding environment and one of them is the river, especially river water quality. As a watershed area, there is one main river that is the source of life as well as the Cimahi watershed, whose main river is the Cimahi River. The purpose of this study was calculated the relationship between land-use change in the Cimahi watershed and the water quality parameters of the Cimahi River. The correlation between the two was calculated using Pearson correlation. Water quality parameters can be seen based on BOD and DO values. BOD and DO values are the opposite because good water quality has high DO values and low BOD values. The correlation between land-use change and BOD was 0.328 is in the area of settlements area. In contrast, to DO values, an increase in settlements/industrial zones will further reduce DO values so that both have a negative correlation, which is indicated by a value of -0,535. The correlation between settlements with pH and temperature values is 0.664 and 0.812. While the correlation between settlements with TSS and TDS values are 0.333 and 0.529, respectively. In this study, it can be seen that there is a relationship between the decline in water quality and changes in land use.

Objectives : In this study, the characteristics of stormwater runoff from agricultural nonpoint pollution sources investigated under various experimental conditions were evaluated among different land use types (e.g., paddy, field, field (alpine), and vinyl house), and event mean concentrations (EMCs) for each water quality parameter were statistically analyzed. These results can be used in calculating the contribution of stormwater runoff to water quality of receiving water body by performing quantitative and qualitative analysis. The unit loads calculated were compared with Ministry of Environment TMDL (2019) to secure the reliability of the calculated unit loads.Methods : EMCs and unit loads investigated in various studies were classified in terms of paddy, field, field (alpine), and vinyl house. Among various land use types, EMCs and unit loads were statistically analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. For EMCs, a null hypothesis is that ‘EMCs of water quality parameters among different land use types are not different at a statistically significant level (α=0.05)’. Based on the results of statistical analysis, heteroscedasticity (p<0.05) and Welch-test method were consequently applied, and post hoc test was performed using the Games-Howell method. Finally, unit loads was compared and reviewed against the TMDL (2019) unit loads of the Ministry of Environment.Results and Discussion : Various EMCs in all water quality parameters were found among different land use types (i.e., paddy, field, field (alpine) and vinyl house). For most water quality parameters, EMCs tended to decrease in the order of field (alpine) > field > vinyl house > paddy. The coefficient of variance (CV) values of all water q uality parameters were 0.5 or greater. Based on these results, EMCs in agricultural nonpoint source pollution are very diverse and deviated due to the combination of natural and artificial factors. Post hoc test results indicated different statistical significance among all water quality parameters. In addition to the land use types, both natural factors (i.e., season, rainfall, antecedent rainfall day, and, rainfall runoff rate) and artificial factors (i.e., cultivator manipulation, emission route, type of crop, and amount of compost) affect the characteristics of stormwater runoff. In particular, in the case of field (alpine) with prominent topographical feature of slope, and EMCs were statistically greater than those from other land use types in all water quality categories (p<0.05).Conclusions : Countermeasures for field (alpine)with greater EMCs than paddy, field and vinyl house, should be performed priority. EMCs were affected by a complex interaction between natural factors (i.e., season, rainfall, antecedent rainfall day, and, rainfall runoff rate) and artificial factors (i.e., cultivator manipulation, emission route, type of crop, and amount of compost), and additional data and research are required for further study to elucidate these complex interactions.

Abstract Studies in water quality management have indicated significant relationships between land use/land cover (LULC) variables and water quality parameters. Thus, understanding this linkage is essential in protecting and developing water resources. This article extends the conventional geographical weighted regression (GWR) to a temporal version in order to take both spatial and temporal variations of such linkages into account, which has been ignored by many of the previous efforts. The approach has been evaluated for total nitrates and nitrites' concentration as the case study. For this, observations of 45 water quality sampling stations were examined in a time interval of 20 years (1992–2011), and the linkages between LULC variables and NO2 + NO3 concentration were extracted through Pearson correlation coefficient as a global regression model, the conventional geographic weighted regression, and the proposed spatio-temporal weighted regression (STWR). Comparing the results based on two global criteria of goodness-of-fitness (R2) and residual sum of squares (RSS) verifies that the simultaneous consideration of spatial and temporal variations by STWR substantially improves the results.
