Seasonal distribution of physico- chemical parameters of ground water of Barpeta District, Assam, India
2011
The physico-chemical characteristics of ground level water have been studied in Barpeta district. Ground water quality of the study area was evaluated for its suitability for drinking purposes by collecting twenty samples during summer and post monsoon season in 2008 (Season A) and winter and pre monsoon season in 2008-2009(Season B). Descriptive statistics in the forms of mean, variance, standard deviation, median, range of variation, skewness, kurtosis etc. are computed for the water quality parameters. There is no earlier statistics for various water quality parameters in the study area and hence the present research is undertaken with specific view to strengthen the regional and national water quality database .The study revealed that the some water sources in the region are not suitable for drinking in regards to total hardness, calcium and magnesium content. Proper maintenance and treatment of water can give a safer life as well as improve the quality of drinking water.
