Abstract :

Assessment of Sari area groundwater can determine the qualification of water and performance of thisfor different use such as industrial, urban and agriculture. There are similar researches in different areaof Iran country for this topic. With study 20 different sampling point of groundwater source for thisresearch are and chemical and physical test result, the sodium absorption ratio determined and salinitydispersion map was drawn. After that with using indexes LSI and RSI corrosion and sedimentationwas examined. with calculating SAR, was shown the bad quality of groundwater resource foragriculture and in rating perch in salinity and very salinity. Also with drawing of salinity dispersionmap the critical area was shown. In assessment of LSI and RSI specified that all results of LSI aresediment property. As well as sedimentation dispersion map was shown that, there are maximum ofsediment in center of study area. The sampling water of research area is with high level of SAR andsalinity. Also high sediment can do bad effect on agriculture, industry and human health. Decrease ofusing resource and use phosphate composite can decrease the effects.
