Abstract |
|
An attempt has been made to work out the physic-chemical characteristics of the Maghanahalli lake water located near Davangere district, Karnataka. In order to check the adequacy of the lake water to supply for domestic and agricultural purposes, various parameters like pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), turbidity, total alkalinity (TA), total hardness (TH), chlorides, calcium, magnesium, fluoride, phosphate, nitrate, Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) were studied. The result revealed that the electrical conductivity (EC), Alkalinity, Magnesium and Dissolved Oxygen were found and to cross checked with standard limits. The correlation co-efficient(r) among various physic-chemical parameters were also made and it was observed that many of the parameters bears a good positive correlation and some bears a negative correlation. |
