Abstract
An attempt has been made to assess the water quality and algal periodicity of Mahapur reservoir. The investigation was carried out by collecting water and algal samples from selected sampling stations as ES1 and WS2. The samples were collected at monthly intervals from June 2021 to May 2022.The samples were analysed for the parameters like Temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, electric conductivity, total dissolved solids, BOD, free CO2, total alkalinity, chlorides, hardness, calcium, and phosphate.
The algal periodicity reveals that the members of Chlorophyceae were dominant in all seasons,the members of Cyanophyceae were dominant in winter,.The members of Bacillariophyceae and Euglenophyceae were dominant in summer.
