Abstract

In the present investigation water quality monitoring of river Ganga at Kangri village, District Haridwar was studied with reference to physico-chemical parameters during the period January, 2009 to December, 2009. Parameters studied was Temperature, pH, free CO2, D.O., B.O.D, T.D.S., Acidity, Alkalinity, Hardness, Calcium, Chlorides and Conductivity. Statistical analysis of the analytical data was computed in the table.
