Abstract:
The present study describes the environmental profile of the River Chenab at Marala Headworks regarding physico-chemical characterization and particle size distribution. Water samples from the selected stations were collected and analyzed for physico-chemical characteristics. To evaluate pollution status the parameters determined were temperature, pH, colour, TDS, TSS, turbidity, total hardness, Ca-hardness, Mg-hardness, nitrates, ammonia, sulphates, chlorides, fluorides, Fe, Zn, Cu, Pb and Na. The results indicated a wide variation of different parameters among the selected sampling stations.
