Abstract

Introduction: BALEKHLOO RIVER is one of the main branches of Garasoo River in ARDEBIL province and supplies the water of Yamchi Dam. This dam is of high importance as it supplies the drinking and agricultural water of ARDEBIL and Sarein cities. Considering the different pollution sources like the wastewater from residential, industrial, agricultural areas and hot springs, bioassessment seems to be essential for conservation of biolife in this river.Methodology: This study is conducted for biological assessment of BALEKHLOO RIVER based on population and species of FISH in five stations in two seasons of low water and high water during 2010-2011. In this study, FISH sampling was done by Electro shocker, and physical and chemical parameters were measured simultaneously.Result: In this study, 8 FISH species belonging to 4 families were identified with most of them being Cyprinidae Cobitidae. The result of Shannon index varied between 0 (station 3) and 1.33 (station 5) in sampling seasons.Conclusion: The results show that Shannon index is suitable for quality assessment in the river. Results of physicochemical assessment confirmed the result of Taxa richness and Shannon indexes. Finally, by comparison of the physical, chemical and biological parameters, the WATER QUALITY in BALEKHLOO RIVER was classified into three regions of low (4 and 5 stations), moderate (1 and 2 stations) and high (station 3) pollution.
