Physicochemical Characteristics and Water Quality Indices to Assess the Suitability of Groundwater Resources in some Communities of Kogi State, Nigeria

This paper aims to evaluate the physicochemical characteristics and water quality indices (WQI) to assess the suitability of groundwater resources in some communities of Kogi State, Nigeria using appropriate standard procedures. Data obtained show that pH, EC, TDS, and TSS, ranges from 6.18-7.44 (m...
