Abstract
Water quality of Yamuna river (Hathi Ghat) water and Paliwal Park lake water at Agra, Uttar Pradesh were studied for period of eight months (February 2023 to August 2023) on the basis of monthly sampling. Various physicochemical parameters, such as water temperature, air temperature, pH, humidity, electric conductivity, total dissolved solid, dissolved oxygen, total hardness and turbidity were studied. The results revealed that the water samples did not meet the drinking water standards. The aim of this study was to analyze the monthly variations in Physicochemical Parameters of Yamuna river water and Paliwal Park lake water at Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India.
Keywords: Conductivity, dissolved oxygen, hardness, physicochemical, total dissolved solid, turbidity
