Seasonal Variation of Physico-Chemical Characteristics of Water in Two Wetlands of Tiptur Taluk, Karnataka

Abstract

The present study was carried out to evaluate the physico-chemical parameters of Sugur and Bajagur wetlands, located at Tiptur taluk, of Tumkur district, Karnataka. The physicochemical parameters play a vital role in the wetland ecosystems. A significant variation in these parameters was observed throughout the study period and monthly comparisons were made as monsoon, pre-monsoon and post-monsoon. The results of the present investigations are compared with literature values and investigation reveals that there is a fluctuation in the physico-chemical characters of the water this will be due to in flow and change in the temperature as season changes
