ABSTRACT
The management of the subsurface and surface water resources is

important for various purposes. Since the quantity and quality of water available for
irrigation in India is variable from place to place, groundwater quality in the Dimbhe
command area was evaluated for its suitability for domestic and irrigation purposes
by collecting 37 dug well samples during the post monsoon period of 2014. The
suitability assessment was made by estimating pH, electrical conductivity, total
dissolved solids, and alkalinity besides major cations (Na, K, Ca, and Mg") and
anions (HCO, CQ, SO and NO,). Out of 37 groundwater samples, 5.41% represents
good water, 62.16% indicate poor water, 29.73% indicate very poor water and 2.7%
indicate water unsuitable for domestic purposes. Based on these analysis, irrigation
quality parameters like, sodium absorption ratio, permeability index, Kelley's ratio,
soluble sodium percentage, residual sodium carbonate, % Mg, Na, and Mg hazard
ratio were calculated. Assessment of groundwater samples indicated that majority of
them in both the seasons are suitable for irrigation purposes.
River water quality models are used extensively in research as well as in
the design and assessment of water quality management measures. The application
of mathematical models for that purpose dates back to the initial studies of oxygen
depletion due to organic waste pollution.

INTRODUCTION
Water quality modelling involves water quality based data using mathematical
simulation techniques. Water quality modelling helps people understand the eminence
of water quality issues and models provide evidence for policy makers to make
decisions in order to properly mitigate water. Water quality modelling also helps
determine correlations to constituent sources and water quality along with identifying
information gaps. Due to the increase in freshwater usage among people, water quality
modelling is especially relevant both in a local level and global level. In order to
understand and predict the changes over time in water scarcity, climate change, and the
economic factor of water resources, water quality models would need sufficient data by
including water bodies from both local and global levels.
A typical water quality model consists of a collection of formulations representing

physical mechanisms that determine position and momentum of pollutants in a water
body. Models are available for individual components of the hydrological system such
as surface runoff; there also exist basin wide models addressing hydrologic transport
and for ocean and estuarine applications. Often finite difference methods are used to
analyse these phenomena, and, almost always, large complex computer models are
required.
Water quality models contain diverse information, but they all serve the same purpose:
to provide evidence to support water issues. Depending on the scale of the base model,
which depends on whether the area is on a local, regional, or global scale, models can
either be deterministic or statistical. Along with establishing any parameters to
characterise the research, another component to take into account for a model is what
needs to be known or anticipated about that research field. Knowing the audience and
the precise reason for giving data, such as to improve water quality management for
water quality legislation makers, is another part of developing a water quality model.
The assumptions for the quality of surface water at Mai Ghat was very much predicted
before hypothetically. The reason behind this was the major production in sugarcane
industries. They disposed TSS (Total Suspended Solids) in huge amount, as a result the
quality is degrading year-by-year. So many recommendations have been circulated but
no improvement has been observed. Lastly, the recommendations passed in year 2012
for the betterment of quality, because the polluted water was injurious to aquatic life as
well as it was not suitable for the drinking purpose, agriculture purpose, etc. So basis
on my study over the same region I will first analyse the water quality and then provide
recommendations according to that, which will be beneficial for the society.
1.2 Aim:
The aim of river water modeling and management is to understand, simulate, and
optimize the complex interactions within river systems. This includes studying flow
patterns, water quality, sediment transport, and ecological dynamics. The ultimate goal
V
is sustainable and effective management, ensuring water availability for various needs
while preserving the ecosystem and minimizing the impact of human activities on
rivers.
1.3: Need of study:

Studying river water modeling and management involves understanding the
hydrological processes, water quality, and various factors affecting rivers. It
encompasses using mathematical models to simulate river behavior, assessing
environmental impacts, and implementing effective management strategies. Key
aspects include watershed dynamics, pollution sources, ecological balance, and
sustainable resource utilization. Are you looking for specific information or guidance
on a particular aspect of river water modeling and management?
1.4: Objective:
1. To assess the water quality and pollution issues in ghod
river for better modelling and management
2. For better simulation of water quality and Management
strategies for future
3.To determine the surface water quality of the study are
1.5: Limitations:
River water modelling and management face several limitations.
Challenges include the complexity of hydrological systems, uncertainties in weather
patterns, and the difficulty of predicting human activities affecting rivers. Additionally,
inadequate data, resource constraints, and the interconnected nature of water systems
pose challenges to accurate modelling and effective management strategies. Balancing
ecological needs with human demands further complicates decision-making in river
water management.
