Thesis Abstract

Abstract
**
This study examines the impacts of urbanization on river systems, focusing on changes in hydrological processes, water quality, and ecosystem health. Urban development alters natural landscapes, leading to increased impervious surfaces, altered runoff patterns, and pollution inputs into river systems. Through a combination of field surveys, hydrological modeling, and water quality assessments, this research aims to quantify the effects of urbanization on river ecosystems. By understanding these impacts, strategies for sustainable urban planning and river management can be developed to mitigate negative consequences and enhance the resilience of riverine environments.
