Abstract: Water is considered polluted when it is contaminated by anthropogenic contaminants and either does not support a human use, such as drinking water, or undergoes a significant shift in its ability to support its constituent biotic communities, such as fish. Volcanoes, algae blooms, storms, and earthquakes all cause significant changes in water quality and the ecological status of water. Although surface water and groundwater are interconnected, they are frequently studied and managed separately. Surface water percolates into the soil and becomes groundwater. Groundwater, on the other hand, can feed surface water sources. Surface water pollution sources are generally classified into two types based on their origin. Water pollution is a significant worldwide issue which requires continuous assessment and update of water asset strategy at all levels. It has been recommended that it is the main overall reason for deaths and illnesses, and that it represents the deaths of in excess of 14,000 individuals day to day.
