“…Due to this oxygen released by the phytoplankton & other aquatic plants during day time due to photosynthesis is not dissolved in water, while at night maximum O2 are utilized by the phytoplanktons as well as by the aquatic plants. Present finding corroborates with the findings of Barman et al, (2015); Dixit et al, (2015); Sharma and Singh (2016);Balkrishnan et al, (2017) and Ramnathan and Amsath (2018).…”

Changes in modern life style and use of heavy amounts of agrochemicals and fertilizers have caused a scenario due to which there are undesired changes in physico-chemical parameters of water, soil and air. Anthropogenic activities thus have enhanced the quantum of pollution of fresh water ponds and Mons. Water quality has tremendous impact on flora and fauna. Manika Mon is a perennial water reservoir of Muzaffarpur. Because water of this Mon is being used for different purposes, so its physico-chemical analysis was done in different seasons. Temperature of surface water was taken from February to March, May to July, August to September and November to January. Similar studies were also conducted for different parameters. The mean of the data for pH varied from 7.10 May to July, to 8.30 from February to March. In the same periods temperature varied from 13.6 0 C to 29.5 0 C. Turbidity varied between 48.0 cm to 116 cm, soluble substances from 1022 mg to 1150 mg/l, while dissolved oxygen varied between 5.62 mg/l to 10.16 mg/l , free carbon dioxide 12.58 mg/l to 16.72 mg/l, chloride 28.75 mg/l to 47.70 mg/l, calcium 6.18 mg/l to 12.19 mg/l and Ca-hardness 8.26 mg/l to 19.71 mg/l. Therefore, it is essential that the water body should be put under strict vigilance and constant monitoring so that the water should be maintained at its better quality.

“…From the month of August to September. Sharma and Singh (2016) also reported similar variations in the concentration of chloride. Higher concentration indicates polluted condition of the water that may influence the growth of vegetation.…”

“…The slight increase of pH during the summer season in the groundwater might be due to the calcareous nature of the underlaying aquifers of the study area. This can be attributed to the discharge of a large quantity of electrolytes and minerals from coal mining waste and the interaction of water with the bed rocks [51]. The higher value of EC in the underground water samples might be due to the dissolution of minerals and interaction of water with the bed rocks.…”

Balochistan is a semi-arid region. The assessment of water quality is very important, as the majority of people depend on groundwater for drinking purposes. The present study involves the quality assessment and mapping of drinking water in the five selected major coal mining sites in the four districts of Balochistan. A total of 50 samples were collected from these five coal mining sites in two seasons: i.e., summer and winter. A physicochemical analysis was carried out for groundwater samples: i.e., pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solid (TDS), CO3, HCO3-, Cl-, Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, Cd, Cr, Co, Cu, Fe, Pb, Mn, Hg, Ni, and Zn. Thematic maps were used to depict the spatial distribution of significant variables and were compared with WHO standards (2011) during both seasons. The majority of parameters crossed the safe permissible limit of WHO standards. The water quality index (WQI) was calculated for the whole monitoring data obtained from both seasons from the perspective of drinking water in each of the selected sites. Moreover, a principle component analysis (PCA) and correlation matrix was carried out for the data analysis in order to identify the source of pollution and correlation among the variables. The results suggested that the overall quality of water from the selected coal mining sites deteriorated due to the overexploitation of coal mines and mining activity. The current investigation provides a comprehensive picture of the current status of water quality in and around the selected coal mines of Balochistan.

“…According to Sharma and Singh (2016), water quality refers to the physical, chemical and biological characteristics of a water body. The quality of a water body largely depends on the interactions of various physicochemical factors (Momtaz et al, 2010).…”

In this study, seasonal and spatial variations in physicochemical parameters of water and proximate composition of Macrobrachium macrobrachion from Badagry Creek and Ologe Lagoon were examined. Samples of water and M. macrobrachion were collected from both stations on a monthly basis for six months. The physicochemical parameters monitored were pH, temperature, total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, total solids, total alkalinity, free carbondioxide, conductivity, salinity, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, ammonia and turbidity, while the proximate composition parameters were moisture content, crude protein, crude fibre, carbohydrate, crude lipids and ash. It was observed that alkalinity, salinity, dissolved oxygen, temperature and ammonia determined for both sample stations were within recommended limit of Food and Agricultural Organization, except pH for Badagry creek. There was no significant difference (p > 0.05) in seasonal variations of most physico-chemical parameters in both stations except for pH in Ologe lagoon, and electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS) and total solids (TS) in both stations. Also, with the exception of EC, TDS and TS, there was no significant difference for spatial variation of physico-chemical parameters between the two stations. Moisture content, lipid and ash contents showed significant seasonal variation in Ologe lagoon, while crude protein and crude fibre recorded no significant difference. For Badagry creek, with the exception of moisture content, all other proximate composition parameters showed significant difference. However, there was no significant spatial variation in proximate composition between the prawns in Ologe lagoon and Badagry creek. There were gradual effects of season on water quality and proximate composition but these effects still support growth and survival of the prawn. However, regulatory measures should be put in place to protect these water bodies from direct/indirect human activities that can cause adverse damages.
