Abstract

This study looks at the types of groundwater and water quality in a semi-arid watershed in southern India that includes 35 settlements. In both seasons, cation concentrations (Na+> Ca2+> Mg2+> K+) and anions (HCO3- > Cl > NO3-> SO 2-> PO43-) follow a consistent pattern across most of Peninsular India. The sodium-bicarbonate-chloride (Na+-HCO3-Cl-) classifies the groundwater. The influence of natural sources on groundwater composition across the watershed's communities is demonstrated by a Pearson correlation study of important ions. The water composition of these communities, according to Gibb's plot, is the result of rock and water interaction during infiltration and aquifer storage. Due to a severe water deficit in this region, particularly during the pre-monsoon season, deep bore wells have been drilled for both home and agricultural purposes. All of the physical dimensions and chemical contents exceed the World Health Organization (WHO) and Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) permissible limits, rendering it unsafe for drinking, domestic, or agricultural use. Around 54 percent of groundwater samples, regardless of season, are found to be unfit for irrigation (KR 1). During the post-monsoon season, groundwater from villages near the local river (Bukleru river) is only acceptable for irrigation (KR>1).
