    Correlation Study Among Water Quality Parameters Of Groundwater Of Valsad District Of South Gujarat (india)
    (University of Eloued جامعة الوادي, 2015-09-01) Shroff, P.; Vashi, R. T.; Champaneri, V. A.; Patel, K. K.
    Groundwater samples were collected from five talukas of Valsad district for one year (from August 2008 to July 2009) and were analyzed for their physicochemical characteristics. The present investigation is focused on determination of parameters like pH, Colour, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Hardness (TH), Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Total Alkalinity (TA), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Silica, Chloride, Sulphate, Fluoride, Sodium, Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and metals like Copper (Cu) and Manganese (Mn). Correlation coefficients were determined to identify the highly correlated parameters and interrelated water quality parameters. Correlation matrix of Valsad district suggests that EC of groundwater is found to be significantly correlated with eight out of seventeen water quality parameters studied. It may be suggested that the quality of Valsad district can be checked very effectively by controlling EC of water.
