摘要

The present study deals with the selected physical and chemical characteristics of the surface water and sediments of Burdwan Municipality ponds. Determination of physical parameters (air and water temperatures and colour), chemicals parameters of water (pH, Cl-, hardness, alkalinity, phosphate) and sediments parameters (pH, available nitrogen and available phosphate) were carried out to identify the nature and quality of the water of Burdwan Municipality. The present study reveals that the quality of pond water positively depends on air and surface water temperature, pH of water and pH of the sediments. But none of the parameters are statistically significant.
