| Abstract | ||
The present study deals with the assessment of physical characteristics of Serlui-A River in Mizoram, North-East India, for a period of two years (from October 2016-September 2018). The samples were collected on a monthly basis and the results were presented on a seasonal basis, i.e., Post-monsoon (October-January), Pre-monsoon (February-May) and Monsoon (June- September) season. It was observed that temperature ranged from 16.70C to 26.70C; total dissolved solids from 24.7 mgL-1 to 148.5 mgL-1; electrical conductance from 23 μS to 277.2 μS and turbidity from 2.3 NTU to 5 NTU. The findings were compared with water quality standards given by USPH, BIS, WHO and ICMR. |
