| Abstract: | The influence of ionic composition on the water chemistry and thereby on aquatic flora was investigated. Two major wetlands
of North India were taken for the study. Quality parameters of the lakes showed the enrichment of the water especially in
the month of September with higher values of P and BOD in almost all of the lakes viz., LSJ, LCH, LSN, and LHT as <5.0, 9.0,
1.0, 1.7 and <7.3, 6.0, 6.3, and 4.0, respectively. Statistically correlated values of the ions in the water quality showed
an effect of one on another. An attempt has also been made to investigate if ionic constituent is one of the major causes
affecting the aquatic floral diversity. |
