Abstract. The major challenge for achieving a sustainable future for water resources and water security is the integration of water availability, water quality and water governance. Water is unevenly distributed on Planet Earth and these disparities are cause of several economic, ecological and social differences in the societies of many countries and regions. As a consequence of human misuse, growth of urbanization and soil degradation, water quality is deteriorating continuously. Key components for the maintenance of water quantity and water quality are the vegetation cover of watersheds, re

Abstract:
Water is one of nature’s resources. As urbanisation grows, new roadways and highways are constructed for the transport sector and development. Due to roadway infrastructure, the development of the quality of surface water bodies in close proximity to roads is deteriorating and has become a major environmental challenge. Considered as one of the major nonpoint pollution sources, the construction of new roadways can have short and long-term effects on water quality conditions. This study revealed that road construction activities may be responsible for introducing pollutants in nearby water sour

There is a total of 1,46,00,000 cubic kilometers of water present on the earth. Of this, 97 percent is in the oceans, which is of no use to us due to being salty, and 1.6 percent of the water is under the ground and 0.001 percent is in the form of vapor and clouds and other glaciers and snow covering mountain peaks. Even in this minimal amount of water, the question mark is being raised about its quality at some places and the life of every living being found on the earth depends on water only. Therefore, its availability is absolutely necessary. Water, which we consider as a free or free gift

Lukha River (Wah Lukha) is one of the major rivers of Meghalaya situated in the southern part of East Jaintia Hills District. Activities such as mining of coal and limestone, manufacturing of cement, deforestation etc. have been taking place in the catchment area of the river leading to changes in water quality. This is evident from the deep blue appearance of water of Lukha River during winter months for the last 7-8 years.Till date no convincing and conclusive reason has been given for this annual change in physical appearance.To get insight, we studied the physico-chemical water quality par

Abstract Groundwater is an important component of the global water cycle, and acts as a receptor and information carrier of global environmental changes. Therefore, it is of great importance to research the chemical evolution of groundwater under a changing environment. Historical data shows that groundwater hydrochemical types are becoming more complicated, groundwater quality is deteriorating and the scope of pollution is expanding. This is attributed to an increasingly dry climate and the gradual deterioration of the original ecological environment, together with the unreasonable groundwate

The main problem that is often found in the failure of microalgae production is poor water quality during the maintenance period. One of the causes of deteriorating water quality is the lack of oxygen which endangers microalgae which can inhibit cell growth so that it can reduce its productivity. On this basis, efforts are needed to refresh the water or aeration to help increase the dissolved oxygen (DO) level in the microalgae growth container using a paddle wheel. The development of an aerator blade design that has optimum efficiency is needed to reduce high electricity consumption and see m
