To calculate the Water Quality Index (ICA), 9 physical-chemical and microbiological parameters were used, among them: (pH, Temperature, Turbidity, Dissolved Oxygen, Total Dissolved Solids, Nitrates, Phosphates, Fecal Coliforms and Biochemical Oxygen Demand '' BOD5 ''), which were processed in the IQAData program, where point 1 obtained a result of 70.18 indicating a Regular rating, while point 2 indicated a Regular rating with a value of 52.2 and finally in point 3 had a value of 46.87 being its Bad rating. Subsequently, the Water Quality Trophic Index (ITCA) was compared through its tables; where point 1 obtained a value of 1.41 indicating that it is an oligotrophic value, that is, its contamination is negligible, at point 2 the value was 1.53 being β-mesotrophic, that is, it has moderate contamination and for point 3 it gave a value of 2.61 verifying an α-mesotrophic state that indicates strong contamination. Therefore, in this study, diatoms are related to the river water quality index, since while the parameters mentioned above vary, they will increase or decrease considerably; but in turn there will be climatic factors that alter the study, such as the rainfall that altered the chlorophyll level at point 1 during the month of December. |
