Investigating the Influence of Surface Runoff and Human Activities on the Seasonal Characterization of Physicochemical Properties of the upper segment of Qua Iboe River Water, Nige... by U. E. Jonah, I. I. Akpan, E. S. Umoh

“… The objective of this paper was to investigate the influence of surface runoff and human activities on the seasonal characterization of physicochemical properties o of the upper segment of Qua Iboe River Water, Niger Delta, Nigeria, using the protocols described in standard methods for the examination of water and wastewater. The values of physicochemical parameters assessed in water samples gave the following ranges: Water Temperature (22.0-31.6 oC), Dissolved Oxygen (1.5-7.42 mg/L), Total Dissolved Solids (48.6-130.6 mg/L), Electrical Conductivity  (72.5-195.0 mg/L), Turbidity (5.14-48.0 NTU), Sulphate (42.8-158.3 mg/L), Nitrate (1.76-17.48 mg/L),Phosphate (1.85-17.95 mg/L), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (0.62-6.51 mg/L), Chloride (22.29-80.36 mg/L) and Total Suspended Solids (22.1-91.5 mg/L). …”
