目前的数据集显示，以评估在前和后季风季节在Sarabanga河地区，泰米尔纳德邦，印度的基础上，各种水质指标的饮用水和灌溉用水的地下水水质的适宜性。在研究区不同位置共采集了50个地下水样品。水质指数（WQI）是一个数字，表明水适合饮用。钠吸收比（SAR）、渗透指数（PI）、残余碳酸钠（RSC）、钠百分比（%Na）、凯利比（KR）和镁危害（MH）是描述地下水农业利用适宜性的指标值。两个季节的地下水WQI值显示，74.5 sq.km和37.24平方公里的区域不适合家庭用途。根据灌溉指标，几乎所有的采样点都适合灌溉目的。该数据集展示了水质指数如何应用于决策者，以管理、处理和可持续地改善整个社会。(C)2020作者（S）爱思唯尔公司出版
The present datasets reveal that to assess the suitability of groundwater quality for drinking and irrigation uses in both Pre and Post Monsoon Season in Sarabanga River region, Tamilnadu, India based on various water quality indices. A total of 50 groundwater samples were collected in different location in a research area. Water Quality Index (WQI) is a number which indicates the suitability of water for drinking purpose. Sodium Absorption Ratio (SAR), Permeability Index (PI), Residual Sodium Carbonate (RSC), Percentage Sodium (%Na), Kelly Ratio (KR) and Magnesium Hazards (MH) are index value which elaborates the fitness of groundwater for agriculture uses. The WQI value for groundwater in both seasons reveals that 74.5 sq.km and 37.24 sq.km of the area were unfit for domestic purposes. Based on irrigation indices, almost all sample locations are suitable for irrigation purposes. The dataset demonstrates how water quality indices would be applied to policymakers to manage, handle and sustainably improve society at large. (C) 2020 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Inc.
