pH stands for "potential of hydrogen" and represents a scale for measuring the acidity or alkalinity (basicity) of a solution. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral, values below 7 indicating acidity, and values above 7 indicating alkalinity.
A healthy pH level in a river is typically between 6.5 and 8.5. This range supports most aquatic life and maintains a balanced ecosystem. A pH outside this range can affect the survival of fish, plants, and other organisms, as well as influence the solubility of nutrients and pollutants in the water.
