| dc.description.abstract | Soil erosion due to rain and wind action is a serious problem in India. Its negative impacts include reduction in soil productivity, silting of dams and reservoirs, deficits in water availability, pollution of water courses, serious damages to properties by soil-laden runoff, and desertification of natural environments. In the present study, chemical and physical parameters of the river were observed. The river Ganga segment in Uttarakhand was taken as study area from Devprayag (30.140N, 78.590E) to Balawali (29.640N, 78.10E). From the study area, a total of twelve locations were selected and water samples were taken in February and June. The classification of the locations of the samples of both the months for the utilization of water for various purposes like drinking water source without conventional treatment but after disinfection, fish culture and wild life propagation and irrigation and industrial cooling or controlled waste disposal was done for useful interpretation of which water could be used for what purposes according to desirable and permissible limits of pH, EC, TDS, free CO2, chloride, total acidity, calcium hardness, total hardness and magnesium hardness. | en_US |
