Physico-Chemical Parameters in Mountain Freshwater: Cuejdi River from Eastern Carpathians, Romania

Abstract:

Spatial and seasonal variation of physico-chemical parameters of mountain streams is influenced by anthropogenic pollution pressure. The assessment of Cuejdi river water quality from Stânişoarei Mountains through 13 parameters, was performed. 30 samples each were collected during spring and autumn of 2013/2014, measurements being made both in situ aquatic ecosystem (Multi 350i / SET WTW) and in laboratory (bench meter Hanna HI 4421, Titroline 700 SI Analytics and WTW Turb 555IR).
