Abstract:
Everywhere, on the coastal belt it is proved without doubt that the pristine ground
water quality was severely deteriorated after the 26 December 2004 Indian Ocean
Tsunami. But how far is more relevant, as it is decided by the so-called pre-tsunamic
situation of the region. In water quality studies it is this reference finger print which
earmarks regional ground water chemistry based on which the monthly variability
could rationally be interpreted. This Ph D thesis comprises the testing and evaluation of the facts: whether there is any significant difference in the water quality parameters under study between stations
and between months in Tsunami Affected Dug Wells (TADW). Whether the selected
water quality parameters vary significantly from BIS and WHO standards. Whether
the water quality index (WQI) differ significantly between Tsunami Affected Dug
Wells (TADW) and Bore Wells (BW). Whether there is any significant difference in
the water quality parameters during December 2005 and December 2008. Is there any
significant change in the Water Quality Parameters before 2001 and after tsunami
(2005) in TADW.
