| ABSTRACT: | A detailed study of the water quality in Karameh Reservoir was conducted to predict the suitability of the stored water for irrigation in the southern zone. The study included qualitative testing of the constituent water source of the reservoir together with quantitative flow measurements in Wadi Mallaha and the reservoir basin. Water sampling stations were established and positioned to allow qualitative monitoring of all potential sources of inflow to the reservoir. A number of special soil tests were undertaken during the study in order to establish the potential quantities of salts which may be leached from soil in the reservoir basin over a long period. The study report contains all the acquired data, investigations and discussions which have taken place at the Jordan Valley Authority throughout the study. |
