Table 1. pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS) and temperature (Temp°C) concentrations from water samples from all study area

Study area	pH	EC (mS/cm)	TDS (mg/L)	Temp (°C)
FA	9.9 ± 0.058	398.3 ± 0.67	201.0 ± 0.58a	23.2 ± 0.12b
PA	9.97 ± 0.033	398.0 ± 0.58	227.7 ± 0.88a	22.8 ± 0.07b
AA	9.93 ± 0.07	397.3 ± 0.88	227.7 ± 0.67a	22.8 ± 0.07b

Values with different letters within a TDS and Temp (°C) column are significantly different at p < 0.05 level (Tukey HSD test).
FA, flooding area; PA, protected area; AA, anthropogenic areas.
