| Abstract | ||
| This investigation was designated to study all the possible effects of the industrial polluted waters drained by from Kufa leather factory on the limnology features and aquatic plants ecology of south kufa stream. Water samples were collected during four month for water and aquatic plants are( January ,February , June , July ) 2010 from four sites; The first site is polluted with Industrial water of Kufa Leather factory , The second site is (100)m away from the first site ,the third site is (500)m away from the second site and The fourth site was taken 1 km before the second site for comparison (control) with the other sites. The results showed that water temperature ranged between (11.3 to 30.5) Co . E.C values were recorded (1.4 to 8.4 ms/cm ). pH levels were on the alkaline site of neutrality (7.3 to 8.3 ).Dissolved oxygen concentrations were ranging from (5.6 to 11.2 mg.l-1 ). Total alkalinity was exclusively dominated by HCO3, however ,it was ranging between (92 to 229.3mg CaCO3/l ). All the studied sites were ranging from moderately hard to very hard waters(1140-6400) mg.l-1 . Major nutrients showed different modes. However, they were fluctuated according to the date of sampling. The following ranges were calculated NO3 (0.5to 20.17 mg/l), NO2 (0.4 to 13.9 mg/l), PO4 (4.1 to 22.1 g/l) . This study determined means of dissolved Cr and Fe (0.8-3.5), (0.7-2.5) mg/l respectively. Recorder in this study (20) species and high number record from species in the second site (14) species where record the first and four sites (10) species and recorder the Echhornia crassipes first appearance in kufa river . | ||
