Bivariate diagrams of KVRB. (a) Na + K + Ca + Mg vs. HCO3 diagram represnting the chemical weathering of the region (b)HCO3 + SO4 vs. HCO3 confirms the proton source of the region (c) Na + K vs. Ca + Mg confirms the dominance of silicate silicate weathering (d) Na vs. Cl confirms other source of Na like anthropogenic activities (e) ___location vs. Cl shows increasing effect anthropogenic towards downstream (f) Na/Cl vs. Cl signify role of silicate weathering.
