Abstract

The objective of this study was to compare the quantitative distribution of some water quality variables and to determine the most appropriate place for sampling in a cross section. A cross section profile of the Turvo Sujo River located in the Viçosa-MG district was selected and was divided into nine subsections to collect water samples for quantification of the quality variables. For quantifying electrical conductivity, total dissolved phosphorus, dissolved inorganic phosphorus, ammonium and nitrate, it is recommended that the samples should be collected to the depth of 20 cm from three points (left, centre and right), and for quantification of dissolved oxygen, turbidity, pH, total phosphorus, dissolved inorganic phosphorus and total nitrogen, the samples should be collected from three points (surface, half and bottom) in the middle column of the water course.
