ECOLOGICAL STATUS OF KHARI NADI AT AGRA

The physico-chemical characteristic of the aqueous phase influence on the types and distribution of aquatic biota. Conversely, they are also influenced by the activity of the aquatic biota. It contains gases (dissolved oxygen, free CO and N). Dissolved minerals (Ca, Mg and Nasalts), suspended matter (clay, silt and sand), and even microbes. Thus the importance of the study of water quality is obvious. In the present study an attempt has been made to quantify the present ecological status of Khari nadi also efforts has been made to find out the indicators of water quality in terms of planktonic studies.
