Reason of high turbidity:

  • The development of phytoplankton can induce turbidity in open water. Human activities that damage property, such as building, mining, and agriculture, can lead to high rates of pollution reaching water bodies during rainstorms due to stormwater runoff.
  • Factors affecting turbidity. Suspended solids may consist of inorganic and organic materials such as algae, sediments, and other contaminants.
  • However, there are some specific elements that can affect levels of turbidity in a water body. These are the flow of water, emissions from point sources, use of land, and resuspension.
