Abstract

Water quality of lakes , rivers and reservoirs in developing countries like India is being degraded because of the contaminated inflows and surrounding influence. There is a serious need for appropriate water quality monitoring for future planning and management of Lake and other type of water resources. Quality of water in Robertson Lake, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India has been investigated in this paper by using remote sensing and conventional methods. Water Quality Index (WQI) was applied in Robertson Lake India using water quality parameters like Hardness, Alkalinity, pH, Conductivity, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Turbidity, Dissolved Oxygen (DO) and Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD). The analysis reveals that Robertson Lake need some treatment before consumption. Some remedies are proposed for Robertson lake is also mentioned in this paper .
