Abstract
Surface water of natural wetlands of Lucknow city was monitored as a part of comprehensive study of natural imbalance of nutrient ions such as PO4 , NO3, Cl and NH4. The common seasonal changes were recorded and statistically analyzed exhibiting a correlation of parameters and also the dependency of one on another. In summer where there is a loss of water due to evaporation results in more ionic concentrations, however, the rainy and winter seasons receives a different chemistry after a average spell of rain. Overall study presents a seasonal variation in the ionic species in water and its impact on the water chemistry.
