Water Quality Analysis at Goiana-PE Basin

Abstract

Water resources are used in various sectors of society such as industry, generating impacts on natural systems and biological processes. This article seeks to analyze the water quality in the Goiana River Basin - Pernambuco, considering variables such as temperature and the concentration of elements such as Nitrate and Phosphorus, in addition to the climatological analysis. The Hydrological Response Unit System for Pernambuco-SUPer was used. The results showed that there is a considerable increase in pollution in the basin due to anthropic action.
