Determination of the Water Quality Index (NFS WQI) of water bodies in the Huasteca Potosina, Mexico

The water quality of water bodies in Huasteca Potosina was assessed by the National Sanitation Foundation Water Quality Index (NFS WQI) depending on nine water quality parameters include physical, chemical, and biological properties. The water quality obtained at the sampling site 50-90 in the NSF-W...
