EFFECT OF PHYSICOCHEMICAL FACTORS ON QUALITY OF RIVER WATER OF OZAT, ORIGIN NEAR PERIPHERAL AREA OF GIR NATIONAL PARK, GUJARAT, INDIA

Abstract

The water performs important natural capacities like supplement responses, groundwater revives, stream upkeep, improving the assistance of greenery, living space for fauna and give entertainment to individuals. Auxiliary changes in these mind-boggling and dynamic environments have a critical impact on its working. To survey these effects because of the waterway water study, the present investigation was attempted in the Ozat stream bowl. This is done through water quality investigation by systematic strategies. The water quality is impeded due to non-point and point wellspring of contamination. Ozat is one of the significant second-longest waterways and began close to the fringe zone of Gir in the Saurashtra district. Concentrate physicochemical investigation at ten distinct locales and streams like Up-Stream, Mid- Stream and Down Stream along with the Ozat waterway bowl from the year 2017 to 2018. The estimations of parameters were contrasted and natural models and explicitly surface water quality gauges according to WHO and IS 2296-1982. The locales situated in the major country region indicated moderate water quality and in conclusion station situated in a rustic zone close to the Middle Eastern Ocean. It was seen that the primary driver of weakening in water quality was because of the high anthropogenic exercises, the illicit release of sewage and mechanical gushing, and the absence of appropriate sanitation, unprotected waterway destinations and urban overflow. The investigation uncovered that there was a show to some area have exceptionally dirtied in the Ozat waterway and subsequently, preventive measures are required to keep away from further decay of the stream water quality.
