Why water monitoring and assessment are important?

Water quality assessment is one of the crucial scientific and practical analyses to identify the possibility of water consumption for different human needs and nature/ecosystem conservation for future generations. Water quality can be measured and monitored in rivers, springs, creeks, swamps, estuaries, wetlands and lakes what is called aquatic systems. Quality parameters, such as biological, chemical and physical indicators identify the combination of values that influence the composition of water. Monitoring and comparison of different water habitats (macro invertebrates) in biological monitoring provides an information of water quality and allows to make a quick assessment. Biological attributes refer to the number and types of organisms that inhabit a waterway. Chemical and Physical monitoring requires additional tools for checking the water quality and possible contaminations, which easily distinguish the certain parameters for further evaluation. Some chemical measurements actually indicate the physical presence of pollutants in water. Collected results for all categories of monitoring may give qualitative and

quantitative analysis of water body. The more we monitor the water the better we will be able to recognize and prevent contamination problems. Future Water Managers must know, about what you are talking.

You can only manage something, when you are deeply informed about that, what you have to manage
