Abstract:
Metals, such as copper, zinc, cadmium, nickel and lead, can vary significantly in concentration over time and across small specified areas at the micro scale (geographic regions), either naturally or also due to human activities, such as urbanization, industrial and agricultural activities. Their chemical forms and distribution control their mobility, bioavailability and subsequent potential for toxicity which, in turn, dictates surface water quality. The physicochemical forms in which a metal ion is present (i.e. its speciation) determine the behaviour of the metal and therefore its bioavaila

Close to fifteen years on, there is little to show by way of success in the intended countries. Over 1.1 billion people in the LICs lack safe water. The direct impact of this is a higher risk of waterborne diseases. The water

Abstract:
This research is motivated by an issue frequently encountered in environmental water quality evaluation. Many times, the sample size of water monitoring data is too small to have adequate power. Here, we present a Bayesian power prior approach by incorporating the current data and historical data and/or the data collected at neighboring stations to make stronger statistical inferences on the parameters of interest. The elicitation of power prior distributions is based on the availability of historical data, and is realized by raising the likelihood function of the historical data to a fractio

Implementation of the Clean Water Act requires agencies to monitor aquatic sites on a regular basis and evaluate the quality of these sites. Sites are evaluated individually even though there may be numerous sites within a watershed.

This dissertation evaluates testing procedures for determination of site quality based on modelbased procedures that allow for other sites to contribute information to the data from the test site.

The chemical speciation of trace metals controls their potential bioavailability and therefore toxicity to exposed organisms.

In addition, the effect of DOC on radionuclide contaminants in combination with trace metals has not been investigated in any waters. This is of particular interest in the estuarine environ

The water of the lake was found to be suitable for drinking for all the parameters, as all the parameters have their average value below the prescribed BIS standard.
