Abstract
Present investigation were carried out to physico chemical characterstics and trophic status of Pashupatinath pond Mandsour (M.P.).water sample were collected seasonal basis for a period of December 2008 to September 2010 using plastic container .standard procedure were followed during collection ,preservation and analysis of water sample for various physicochemical and biological parameter . The water quality is remained moderately alkaline PH (8.11) while electrical conductivity (0.2176 ms/cm), TDS (187ppm) chloride (22.123ppm), Hardness(139.166ppm) and alkalinity (75.33ppm) show low mean value .Average dissolve oxygen levels were at (7.771 ppm) ,while average nitrate and phosphate The water remained modertly alkaline PH (7.95) while electrical conductance (0.2165ms/cm),TDS (153.66ppm)chloride (22.83ppm) hardness (138.66ppm )and alkalinity (62.166 ppm) showed low mean values .Average dissolved oxygen level were at (7.58 ppm ) while average nitrate and phosphate level were (0.2126ppm) and (0.5868 ppm) respectely .On the basis of water quality parameter .Mirzapur dam was found to be oligotrophic. A low density of Zooplankton were also observed during the study period.
