“…According to the current finding, the four Halda River sampling stations have greater conductivities than average, indicating that the river is salinized. The pH remained fairly alkaline and well-ranged to support aquatic growth [54]. Patra and Azadi [5] remarked that pH is a considerable factor in controlling the quality of water.…”

The Halda River and Haor basins are considered unique breeding habitats for carps in Bangladesh. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the natural spawning environment of carp species, with an emphasis on the hydrological conditions of the Halda River, the Surma River, and Tanguar Haor. This study, which covers the years 2021 and 2022, considered two spawning seasons. The results revealed that temperature, total dissolved solids (TDS), salinity, turbidity, conductivity, and pH were significantly different in the Halda River to the Surma River and Tanguar Haor. However, sudden rainfall and upstream runoff in 2021 were deemed as major factors causing an increment in TDS and electrical conductivity. The water pollution index was excellent in the Surma River and Tanguar Haor, and good in the Halda River. The study reported moderately reduced IMC fry production in 2021 because of inconsistent turbidity, high conductivity, and increased salinity which interrupted the ideal spawning habitat. However, in 2022, the spawning environment was favorable in the Halda River, while the Surma River and Tanguar Haor were considered to be comparatively favorable in both years. Differences were also found in the climatic and meteorological conditions, which revealed uneven rainfall, higher temperatures, decreasing water discharge, and low water levels. The meteorological data also revealed that the overall rainfall showed a decreasing trend for all sites in the last 20 years causing an interrupted water discharge. It was discovered that the amount of carp spawn obtained in the Halda River was greater than that obtained in the Surma River and Tanguar Haor. In terms of hydrological conditions and spawning performance, the Surma River and Tanguar Haor were reported to have significant differences, which may be due to their geographical location.

“…According to WHO, the proposed Water Pollution Index (WPI), shown in Table 1, presents an arithmetical way of integrating parameters for assessing the chemical and ecological surface waters. The Mean value of all WPIs divided by the number of used parameters and expressed by (1) [16,25,26]. Therefore, WPI is computed as…”

“…The standards shown in Table 2 present the classification of the sustainability and suitability of water for drinking using WPI. The technique based on pollution load or water quality status proposed in [24] is adapted and WPI modified values as suggested in [16]. These WPI levels can be summarised as pure (WPI < 1), moderately polluted (WPI > 2), and heavily polluted (WPI > 6).…”

Rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems have been the source of domestic water for many years and still becoming essential in many communities of developing countries. However, due to various reasons, there are several sources of contamination in the rainwater cistern systems. Dissolved chemicals from the roofing, storage, and conveyance materials, together with the suspended particulate matter from the airborne, are examples of water contamination. In this work, the water quality monitoring system has been designed and implemented. Chemical and physical parameters of water samples were collected from three locations using a data acquisition (DAQ) system and rainwater quality was analyzed using Water Pollution Index (WPI). Results obtained from three locations have been presented.

Macrophytes are one of the biological elements for assessing the ecological status. Macrophyte communities were studied in six artificial (drainage canal and ditches) or modified watercourses (regulated rivers). In order to assess the ecological status of the watercourses, studies were carried out with the use of the Macrophyte Index for Rivers (MIR) proposed in the Water Framework Directive. Macrophyte communities were mainly represented by helophytes (12 species in total), and the highest percentage area cover (50–75% of the site) was observed for pleustophytes (Lemna spp.). Macrophytes communities were affected by the gradients of hydromorphological (canal modification, flow type, and shading) and parameters water quality (nutrients and water transparency). The relationships were highly species-specific. In accordance with the MIR values, the ecosystems were classified as having poor (drainage canal), moderate (regulated rivers), or good (drainage ditches) ecological status.
