Water Quality Indicators
9
pH : a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution (the hydrogen Ion concentration H+)
Dissolved Oxygen : microscopic bubbles of gaseous oxygen (O2) that are mixed in water and available to aquatic organisms for respiration
Turbidity :a measure of the concentration of particles suspended in water
Bioindicator : an organism whose status in an ecosystem is analyzed as an indication of the ecosystem's health
Nitrates : natural compounds of nitrogen and oxygen high levels can be harmful to organisms
Phosphates : natural compounds of phosphorus and oxygen high levels can be harmful to organisms
Potability : fit or suitable for drinking
Sewage : waste water and excrement conveyed in sewers
Eutrophication : excessive richness of nutrients in a lake or other body of water which causes a dense growth of plant life and death of animal life from lack of oxygen.
Temperature : measure of heat content
