Contamination of Urban Surface and Ground Water Resources and Impact on Aquatic Species

摘要: Since people have been settling on flood plains, they influenced the freshwater resources more or less intensely. Historically, process of population expansion and industrial development in urban areas has proved disastrous to quantity quality both surface ground waters (Ellis 1999). Thus, for an appropriate assessment areas, integrated subsurface water systems, including their ecological functioning, are playing important role (Zaadnoordijk et al. 2004). Stability criteria one hand “natural” discharges recharges rivers groundwater, which mainly controlled by anthropogenic climate change effects. On other hand, diffuse direct pollutions with innumerable complex chemical compounds determine serious challenges a sustainable management (Lerner Whereas is primarily influencing volumes hydrological cycle all components its effect quantified continuously, pollution circulation these substances represent qualitative parameters, could large impact again (Zhang
