Method for screening water physicochemical parameters to calculate water quality index based on these parameters’ correlation with water microbiota

Water quality index (WQI) plays a crucial role in guiding water resource management. However, WQI calculation methods are not uniform, especially the selection of water parameters and the weighting given to each water parameter (Pi). To optimize WQI calculation, 132 water samples from seven rivers a...
