MULTIVARIATE ANALYSIS AS A TOOL IN GROUNDWATER QUALITY ASSESSMENT OF MEWAT DISTRICT
Project Title
Multivariate analysis as a tool in groundwater quality assessment of mewat district
Summary
Mewat is one of the district of Haryana where groundwater is used as one of the source for drinking, agriculture as well as for industrial purposes. Therefore, it was thought to investigate water quality of the Mewat district whether it is potable or not by physico-chemical analysis and further multivariate statistical methods will be used to facilitate the solution of environmental problems and suggest clues for the understanding of some natural processes.
The proposal will highlight the types of the pollutants present in the water samples collected from different areas and the factors affecting the concentration of each of the parameters. The finding will be helpful for the local government to plan the use and protection of groundwater resources.
The government can make sustainable strategies for management of water by various awareness & training programs to educate people regarding consequences of over exploitation of natural resources.
