Water is an essentiai element in the sustenance of all forms of life, and most
living organisms can survive only for short periods without it. The
management of the water quality has.been a critical issue for decades,but the
current situation in the world is quite far from satisfactory. This is due to
increasing population pressures as well as economic development. In terms
of water resource management, water quality-modelling has' often served as
a support tool in assessing the aquatic environment, with the calculated
results providing. valuable information for enhancing water quality
management. A number of well-known water quality models have been
developed and presented over the past several decades, which are
characterized by their applicability to different water body types, such as
estuaries.rivers, lakes, reservoirs, etc. Based on previous research works,
water quality modelling has demonstrated the capability of predicting water
quality under different circumstances and providing valuable information for
water resource management. These models represent the results in one, two
or three-dimension graphical" output. However, these outputs are not linked
to the real-time maps or the ambient phenomena, which cause an improper
analysis and affect the decision making, The purpose of this study is to utilize
the GIS techniques to link a one-dimension water quality model output with
the spatial location for easier analysis and management as well as aiding the
decision making process, The Klang River basin has been selected as a study
area of this research, Qual2K model has been selected to assess and predict
. the water quality of the Klang River, Subsequently, the GIS tools and
techniques wereused to transfer and link Qual2K model output with the realtime
map. of the study area, The results showed' the usefulness and the
importance of the GIS in managing the river water quality. |
