Water Quality Monitoring by On-site Measurement in the Red River Basin, Vietnam

抄録

Water quality at 10 points at and around Hanoi City in the Red River basin was monitored by on-site measurement. The results clearly show that water pollution has continued. Related literature indicates that shifting cultivation, destructive forest cutting, and industrial and human waste effluent in the basin are the basic causes. The situation appears to be changing and further water quality monitoring is necessary.
