The research will, therefore, show how people are expected to use their land to improve water quality through minimization of pollution. There are various activities of water and land use that have taken place in different water bodies like streams, oceans, and lakes. These activities include mining, generation of power and agriculture. These are activities that heavily rely on good and services that are derived from the area of an aquatic ecosystem. As a result of these activities, water bodies end up being polluted because of different anthropogenic stressors that are found in these catchments. Some of these stressors are intensive mining of coal activities, generation of power that is coal-fired, industrial activities like chrome and steel smelters and chemical manufacturers and even agricultural activities.
