Assessment of Hydrogeochemical Characteristics of Water Pollution along River Kaduna during Rainy Season
This study applies multivariate statistical technique to understand the hydro-geochemistry characteristics of pollutants along River Kaduna. Fourteen key monitored parameters that accurately represent the water quality during the rainy season (May-August) were provided by the Kaduna State Water Board. Cluster analysis (CA) grouped the sampled parameters into three independent classes (turbidity (TUR), conductivity (COND) and twelve parameters). As such, correlation of COND and TUR is worked out with the rest of the analyzed parameters based on the result generated in the CA. The findings indicate an excess concentration of TUR and COND with no significant relationship with other observed parameters. This finding is an indication that water quality parameters poses hidden complex characteristics that can only be simplified and understood when subjected to multivariate statistics and effort should be put by stakeholders to checkmate the concentration of the dominant pollutants.
