| In this study, due to the importance of Doiraj Dam Lake, which supplies an important part of agricultural water of Dehloran and Mosian, the assessment of the lake water was carried out in order to develop aquaculture activities and investigate the possibility of fish farming in the lake behind the dam. For this, 4 stations selected, the entrance, before and ater the lake and sampling were done in three seasons by using Van veen grab with with 0.0625 m2. The results of this study were determined based on the biological indicators. In benthic indices, the quality of water was evaluated by determining the species composition and biological value of different species using Shannon-Wiener diversity indices and Hilsenhoff Family Biotic Index (HFBI). The HFBI index in the studied stations ranged from 3.07 to 6.07. In general, based on the biological indicators, in most of the stations and seasons, moderate pollution was observed, which was more evident in the stations before the dam due to its without move nature than the entry and after stations. |
