Development of function-specific indices for assessing water quality based on the proposed modifications of the expected conflicts on existing information entropy weights
Water serves numerous purposes besides drinking, such as irrigation and industrial usage. Most water quality indices developed have primarily focused on drinking water quality. However, assessing other functio...
