Water quality has great significance in arid and semi-arid regions and it is based on the salinity, sodicity and permeability. In this study water samples were collected representing different sources for irrigation in the peak dry season from various regions of north east Delta, Egypt. Different tests were conducted to determine the salinity (EC, TDS, and TH) as well as sodciety and permeability (pH, SSP, SAR, Adj SAR, RSC and Mg ratio). According to the parameters and system of University of California, water of canals was considered suitable for irrigation. While waters wells in some locations were considered unsuitable. Also, waters drains in El-Gabel El-Asfar were unsuitable, because of their high EC, Cl-, SAR and RSC. |
