Lentic systems are a diverse set of inland freshwater habitats (Lakes and ponds) exist across the globe and provide essential resources and habitats for both terrestrial and aquatic organisms. The current work was intended to evaluate the quality of the selected ponds (Pond 1, 2 and 3) in and around Vellore district, TamilNadu. The water samples were collected to determine the physical and chemical parameters during every month in the year 2019. Water parameters such as temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, Alkalinity, electrical conductivity, Chloride, Sulphate, Nitrate, Ca, Cl was studied. The physicochemical analysis of the samples was compared with each other and the quality status of the water was analyzed. The foremost aim of the present study was to give impression knowledge about the effluence level of pond water in terms of physico-chemical characteristics. | Comparative analysis of the physicochemical parameters of selected pond water samples in and around Vellore district India
