This paper discusses raw water quality results for the raw water from Bospoort dam in South Africa. A time series analysis was conducted for various parameters over a prolonged period of time. It was revealed that apart from conductivity, hardness, and high coliform counts, most parameters were below their recommended threshold levels for the greatest part of the study period.

Abstract This paper discusses raw water quality results for the raw water from Vaalkop dam reservoir in South Africa. A time series analysis was conducted for various parameters over a prolonged period of time. The analysis indicates that apart from conductivity and coliform counts, most parameters were below their recommended threshold levels for the greatest part of the study period.

Abstract Box-Jenkins and exponential smoothing time series analysis of the monthly water quality in surface water in Tehran was conducted as a case study. Various univariate models were developed for each determinand. Most of the models were seasonal, indicating that the water quality determinands vary throughout the year. The models follow the same pattern of variations present in the data. This study shows the credibility of the models, therefore the models may be used for future design purposes.
