Application of water quality indices and dissolved oxygen as indicators for river water classification and urban impact assessment.

TL;DR: Water quality indices were used to evaluate spatial and temporal changes of the water quality in the Bagmati river basin (Nepal) for the study period 1999–2003 and revealed that the urban water quality was significantly bad as compared with rural.

Evaluation of water quality in the Chillán River (Central Chile) using physicochemical parameters and a modified water quality index.

TL;DR: Modifications were introduced into the original WQI to reduce the costs associated with its implementation, and WQIDIR2 and WZIDIR, which are both based on a laboratory analysis and three field measurements, adequately reproduce the most important spatial and temporal variations observed with the original index are proposed.
