Based on experiments, a comparison of water quality between marshes covered with aquatic
vegetation and without aquatic vegetation aimed to study the comparison of water quality
and species diversity. It is monitored by measuring pH base, temperature, dissolved oxygen
content and water transparency. It was found that the marsh area covered with floating plants
and without floating vegetation covered had a pH-base value. There is a difference in
temperature, dissolved oxygen content and water transparency. In marshes covered with
floating vegetation, it has an average acidity-base of 6, which is acidic. It has an average
temperature of 29, an average dissolved oxygen content of 6.1 mg/L and an average
transparency value of 4.6 cm. Marshes without floating vegetation It has an average acidic
acidity of 6.3 with an average temperature of 31.6 °C, an average dissolved oxygen content
of 7.6 mg/L, and an average transparency value of 4.3 cm.
