Seasonal variation in water quality parameters of Gudlavalleru Engineering College pond

Abstract

The present work paying attention on the regular variations in physico-chemical parameters of the Gudlavalleru engineering college pond at a Krishna district, Andhra Pradesh during the summer and winter season. Pond is found outside the college and college management imposes restrictions over misuse of the pond, therefore they remain comparatively clean. The total nineteen parameters are measured and analysis in the research work. The correspondence matrix of different physico-chemical parameters are measured and analyzed. There is a relationship among the ecologists and micro planners about the importance for conservation of ponds as sustainable source of water in rural communities. The inorganic toxic substances may be observed in the pond is especially low or trace quantity. The present investigation indicated that the mean values of temperature, pH and total alkalinity are peak in summer period and lowest in winter period and signify standards of dissolved oxygen was maximum in winter season and lowest in summer season. The certain standards of total hardness, turbidity, chloride and trace metals are peak in the summer period and lowest in the monsoon period, in pond water sampled. The poor water quality can produce in small earnings, low down product value and probable human health risks. Manufacturing is declined when the water has contaminants that can reduce growth, reproduction or still reason mortality to the cultured species. The water quality is significant for intake, farming, aquaculture and manufacturing use.
