Concentrations in surface waters (including particulate phase) of the River Chenab ranged from 27-1100 ng L(-1) and 25-1200 ng L(-1) for OCPs and 7.7-110 ng L(-1) and 13-99 ng L(-1) for PCBs during summer and winter, respectively from 2007-2009. DDTs exhibited the highest concentration, followed by HCHs > chlordane > ∑(24)PCBs > ∑other OCPs. Different indicative ratios for organochlorines sugge...

Farmed and wild samples of two weight Cirrhinus viz., 501-900 g and 901-1300 g of Cirrhinus mrigala were collected from a Commercial Fish Farm and from river Chenab at Trimu Head Jhang, respectively. The extracted residues were pesticides analyzed through reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique. Endosulfan α, p, p’-DDT, methamidophos, carbofuran, diazinon, parathio...

Abstract. We propose an innovative methodology to estimate the formative discharge of alluvial rivers from remote sensing images. This procedure involves automatic extraction width a channel Landsat Thematic Mapper, 8, and Sentinel-1 satellite translate extracted images using width–discharge regime curve established previously by us for Himalayan rivers. is based on threshold theory, simple phy...

This study focused on the impact assessment of wild flora and environmental gradients encompassed by River Chenab headworks using quantitative ecological indices. Quadrats 1 × 1, 5 10 m2 sizes were used for vegetation. Considering data, grazing anthropogenic effects, soil analysis based different physical chemical properties was studied. The relationship between sites their surroundings analyze...

115 samples of Labeo calbasu ranged 8.0-17.9cm length with mean11.90±1.96 and 4.9-68.5g weight with mean 22.25±12.54 from the River Chenab, Southern Punjab, Pakistan were analyzed to investigate length-weight relationships (LWR) of fish in relation to condition factor (K). Standard length (SL), fork length (FL), head length (HL) head width (HW), body girth (BG), dorsal fin length (DFL), dorsal ...

Abstract Untreated sewage and industrial wastes from Faisalabad city are disposed to River Chenab through Chakbandi Main Drain (CMD). The present project is planned investigate the effects of this freshwater pollution on body fish Ictalurus punctatus. specimens species were collected upstream downstream entrance CMD into Chenab. Fish gills, liver, kidney muscles dorsolateral regions subjected h...

The contamination of surface and groundwater is major concern around the globe due to fast industrialization urbanization. water quality rivers, Ravi Chenab in Faisalabad, Pakistan are contaminated industrial wastewater. aim this study was assessment physiochemical contaminants Faisalabad’s wastewater area adsorptive removal ions present high concentrations following National Environmental Qual...
