Abstract
Water bodies are vital elements of the natural ecosystem, essential for preserving biodiversity, moderating local climate conditions, and sustaining human life and activities. This study investigated the physicochemical properties of Sinhad Talab, Nathdwara, Rajasthan, from January to December 2022. Monthly water samples from selected sites were analyzed for temperature, pH, conductivity, alkalinity, DO, TDS, TSS, and hardness using standard methods. Seasonal trends showed rising temperatures from 15°C to 30°C, influencing pH and DO. Elevated TDS and conductivity indicated ionic concentration due to runoff and evaporation. High alkalinity and hardness were linked to carbonate presence and mineral leaching. DO remained low, suggesting moderate organic pollution. The findings emphasize seasonal variability and the impact of anthropogenic activities on the water quality of the reservoir.
Keywords: Physicochemical parameters, Dissolved oxygen, Electrical conductivity, Water hardness.
