Dry Season Impact on Water Quality of Nworie River, Owerri, NigeriaBy Verla Andrew Wirnkor, Anyaorah Francis Chinonye, Shivani Sonkar, Ibe Valentine
Abstract: This study assessed the physicochemical properties and heavy metal contamination of Nworie River during the dry season. Fifteen composite water samples were collected from strategic points along the river. In-situ measurements of pH, temperature, and electrical conductivity were undertaken, while laboratory analyses determined heavy metal concentrations. Pollution Load Index and Contamination Factor were employed to evaluate the overall water quality and contamination levels. Results indicated moderate to high levels of …
