the quality of the river water is assessed in different months in different stations to evaluate the change in the quality in re1ation with the various point sources along the river. thirteen parameters were measured in the samples manually taken from three meters off shore in 20 cm. depth in four points representing the quality in four reaches under consideration. the results revealed that nat...

In this paper, we consider the Radar Placement and Power Assignment problem (RPPA) along a river. In this problem, a set of crucial points in the river are required to be monitored by a set of radars which are placed along the two banks. The goal is to choose the locations for the radars and assign powers to them such that all the crucial points are monitored and the total power is minimized. I...

Djendjen River is one of the largest rivers in the region of Jijel (Algeria). Human activities such as urban discharges, industrial, agricultural, and livestock have significant effects on the quality of water. The present study attempts to evaluate the quality of water along the banks of the Djendjen River at different sampling sites, using physico-chemical and bacteriological methods. The col...

The carbon isotopic composition (δ13C) of dissolved and particulate inorganic carbon (DIC; PIC) was used to compare and analyze the origin, dynamics and evolution of inorganic carbon in two headwater tributaries of the Xi River, Southwest China. Carbonate dissolution and soil CO2 were regarded as the primary sources of DIC on the basis of δ13CDIC values which varied along the Nanpan and Beipan ...

Clostridium perfringens (CP) and sulphite reducing clostridia (SRC) densities in the Selangor River, Bernam River and Tengi River Canal were examined between April 2007 and January 2008. Water samples were taken from two or three locations along each river, using either depth-integration or grab sampling methods. The downstream sampling site of the Selangor River, Rantau Panjang, reported the h...

Fresh Water Rivers are one of the most important aquatic ecosystems in arid and semi-arid regions of Iran in point of biodiversity and drinking water views. Damghanroud River is one of these rivers at Semnan province that during past years has been threatened by drought and anthropogenic pollutions. This river supplies some parts of drinking water of Damghan city and some vicinity villages. The...

background: uranium poses both chemical and radiological hazard to the living system. drinking water from river is one of the major sources of uranium intake. dissolution of minerals, washout from rain water, rock-water interaction, agricultural run off, and industrial disposals are some of the sources of uranium in river water system. present study was aimed to determine the uranium in the wat...
