INTRODUCTION

Water covers about 71 percentage of the earth surface and this percentage is considered three-quarter of the area, so it observed in a continuous way to realize the pollution rates and the climate changes of the environment which affects the human and the habitation of the animals nowadays the scientists had used the methods that are expensive in its cost and the time and they wont allow the demanded great areas which taken as sample or the high resolution of the measuring grid.

In the project which we are discussing now, we had emphasized the advantages of WSNs, when we had managed the scientific study fir the ocean and the sea, we had pointed out to the differences between the terrestrial WSNs and the proposed applications. The WSN formed from a lot of sensor nodes, and every node contains a special processing unit, memory, transceiver, battery, and the sensors. There are many researchers had discussed the utilization of the oceans WSNs is considered one of the great studies which deal with this matter. One and other scientists had described the WSN which is distributed in a random way over the lake reservoir done their best and they measure the p.H values with the magnetic elastic sensors, thus we ensure the drinking water in a safe way. There is another issue had been discussed by Dunkel and his friends who had used the sensor networks to monitor the temperature of the water, salinity and reduce of marine cost [10]. There are some of advances had been in the system of the micro-electromechanical (MEMS) wireless communications, technology and the digital electronics which had enabled the development of low cost, low power, the nodes of multifunctional sensors which are small and un tethered communication tools which used to measure the short distances. These tiny sensor nodes, which consist of sensing, data processing, and communicating components, leverage the idea of sensor networks based on the collaborative efforts of a large number of nodes. A large number of micro-sensor nodes can be used by a WSN to collect high-precision data in various circumstances. Compared with traditional monitoring methods, there are several remarkable advantages to using a WSN to monitor the properties of the environment, such as real-time, ample data, low cost, high effectiveness, and so on. This project proposes a WSN which used for the communication of the correlative real time data that is used to monitor the environment. The system gather some of the predetermined water parameters, like the temperature, PH, dissolved oxygen, nitrate, and ammonia, etc., depending on the zone of deployment such as industrial zones, petroleum refineries, or sanitation. In addition, all collected data can be

stored in a SQLite3 database. At the same time, the environment can be monitored and controlled remotely via a website or applications in a console terminal. The next parts of this paper are ordered as follows. Section 2 presents the problem statement. Section 3 briefly describes the related works. Section 4 overviews the design of Water Monitoring System with three layers (Physical, Network and Application). Section 5 describes the implementation of system. Section 6 reports the experimental results. Finally, Section 7 concludes the paper with a discussion of future works. II. PROBLEM DESCRIPTION

strongly involved. Rather than spending hours on training, the team should do the reading tasks. A. Water Pollution The Oil: The offshore drilling rigs experience accidental leaks. The ships that carry oil lead to devastating oil spills. The people who throw the cooking oils and grease down the sink drains in their homes are the main sources of oil pollution. Dumping: This is a part of the billions if not trillions of tons of trash created every year goes to waters. The Industrial waste is one of the first issues in conditions of the Ocean dumping. These toxic chemicals are like the radioactive chemicals. Sewage This refers to the human wastewater from toilets and other household activities. The untreated sewage includes microbes or pathogens which lead to diseases if seafood is consumed or if there is any skin contact. Air Pollution: The air pollution and ocean pollution are connected. The pollution from automobiles and factories turns to become acid rain that fall down in the ocean and mixes with its waters. Agricultural Runoff The rainwater washes pesticides and fertilizers and turns them into smaller water sources like streams and rivers that bear these toxic chemicals into the ocean [24]. B. WSN in Water Quality A wireless sensor network (WSN) is the system of the autonomous which composed of some of great numbers from the micro sensor nodes which are characteristics by high level of the sensing, and it calculate the communication, this system is low power and low cost. It is considered so smart system which manages different tasks in the monitoring process, as the different conditions of the environment. This system monitors the water environment and the typical application. The system have the ability to compare between the existing real time automatic and the monitoring systems, the WSN based on the environment of the water to monitor and to get the strong points [1]. There is a special need to know the real time of the ground water level and its data to suggest and realize the improvement which happened for the infrastructure to acquire, transfer, and analyzing the data of the real time. The suggested system would meet the following needs [14]: 1. The Low costs: Great number of locations that is wellknown by its level of the ground water to be measured. It used to deploy the infrastructure on a great scale which requires the cost of the material and the integration ion these places should be low.

We are going to discuss what happened during Sep. and Aug. of 2001, The Kuwaiti Bay, the embayment is enclosed to the Arabian Gulf it is experienced that there is a great fish and those fishes are considered a killer fishes, it is involving more than 2500 metric tonne of the savage mullet, because of the spherical Gram positive bacteria. In the Kuwaiti Bay, this issue had been preceded by the small killing fishes (one hundred to one thousand fish in the day) of podlanica sea bream in the aquaculture net pens which is connected to the bloom of Ceratium furca which is considered one of the species of the marine dinoflagellate. Sea bream had been found and considered a positive culture for the S. agalactiae, but didnt provide us with any obvious signs of the disease. Uncommonly the temperature of the warm was (more than 35 C) and the conditions of the calm had been overcome during this time. As the severe kill fish had been progressed, different kinds of the harmful algae were visible for the people, such as the Gyrodinium impudicum, catenatum, Pyrodinium bahamense var and compressum. The number of the Cell especially G. catenatum - G. impudicum had been elevated to reach 1006 l1 in different positions. All fish tested below the limits of detection for (P.S.P) The syndrome of shellfish poisoning and. the Clams were considered positive for the syndrome of shellfish poisoning but at some of the below levels it had a regulatory limits. The inorganic and the organic nutrient concentrations were variable with the time and the location (from place to another) to reflect the inputs from sewage outfalls, the operations of the aquaculture, the high biomass of the disintegrate fish, and other resources. It was hypothesized which there are several factors had participated in the primary outbreak of the disease that leaded from the bacteria, such as the unusual warm and the calm condition. These factors which enriched nutrient condition which appear obviously were conducive to the succeeding H.A.B outbreaks. The detection of P.S.P (The syndrome of shellfish poisoning), while we found a below regulatory limit, to warrant another monitoring system to let the human health in the safe side to solve such a problem, Kuwait authorities started to monitor the waters characteristics. The installed solution requires personnel to physically go and take the readings from different places across Kuwait Bay and bring back the data to be processed. Such a procedure is considered to be cost inefficient in terms of effort and time, and human error is

The Miniaturization: the environmental deployment which done for the sensors need them to be gathered. The sensing intelligences should be followed on high end integrated circuits to make them compact. Flexibility: The sensors design should be elastic enough to be adapted to the other measurements of the environment. Scalability: By deploying scalable WSNs in three dimensions the space of the underwater for every sensor shall monitor and recognize the events which done in the environment particularly. The Modular designs: To enable the use of new technologies in various components (e.g., data acquisition, transfer, and analysis), the design should be modular. Reliable untethered communication: As the nodes are part of a network, the data transfer must be reliable in the event of node failures. III. RELATED WORK

smart devices for the enhanced severability of small fractions in the water. The smart equipments take the advantage of the ultrasonic waves [22]. The article focuses on the water industry which it has provided the improved capabilities for interactive data management systems to support decision makers. These advances provide assistance in planning for the sustainable use of the environment. Real-time applications of analytic tools to real-time hydrographic data are the most significant step because it bridges the gap between the data collection of the environment and the management process for the systems. With the disciplines of data collection forms the important component of the trouble to plan and solve the project operations, design, early warning systems, and the predictive models [17]. This research describes the crossbreed smart system which is called (SMART Agua), that is targeted to analyze and solve the problems of the water productions in the petroleum wells. There are many innovative techniques had been used like multi set had based on the algebra of the qualitative doubtfulness for the experts system and the perception that based on the data mining from the technological frameworks of the developed systems? [19]. The approach of top-down had adopted to explore the research challenges in mobile U.W.S.N designs. Along the layered protocol stack, we proceeded roughly from the top application layer to the bottom physical layer. At each layer, a set of new design intricacies were studied. The conclusion was which building the climbable mobile U.W.S.Ns is a challenge which should be answered by interdisciplinary efforts of auditory communications and the mobile acoustic network protocol designs [5]. The smart thermostat had been furnished with strings for successive long term the temperatures profiling in a great water bodies which is described to allow the highly matched yet lowcost spatial and the temporal measurements [20]. Developed an interface circuit between wireless node and water quality detecting sensor and a solar power system for the water quality WSNs [16]. Implement a hierarchical water quality sensor network structure to reduce the cost of water quality sensor networks and increase the density of the sensor node deployment [23]. The monitoring system of the water environment depend on the W.S.Ns which is containing of three parts: the first part is the nodes which monitoring the data, the second part is the base station which collect the videos, and the last part is the center that is specialized in remote monitoring. in order that, we managed to realize the monitoring process for the wide range waters, the system which is made to monitor the water environment have the ability for perception, processing, acquisition and the transmission of the video in the main places and different parameters of the water environment,

The goals of MOBESENs project had formed a special system and the necessary sensors to enable continuous monitoring of water quality in lakes and at sea. This research presents the innovations of the project in terms of WSN to achieve this goal. After a short description of the project, the research describes the localization and routing protocols specifically designed to support long-term continuous monitoring of water quality [6]. The system includes a smart array of ion-selective field effect transistors (ISFETs) as a front-end and at postprocessing stages in order to transmit the stored measures of ion concentrations. The intelligence in the smart sensors is provided by a blind source separation (BSS) algorithm that continuously learns from measures how to detect the ion concentrations available in the mixed signal observed in the arrays output [2]. In the article, we had demonstrated a special design to monitor the groundwater and its system depending on the wireless networks that is linked to the pressure sensors. The suggested solution shall pave the way for the groundwater researchers and the people who are considered decision makers to make a quick access for the data groundwater with a limited efforts and it takes lower cost. Although our design is related to the groundwater which monitor, it can be adapted to other fields of the environmental monitoring [1]. The divided positioning of the algorithms shall help the remote sensing of the real time for the ocean by using the systems and the applications which provides us with a lot of information about the position of sensors that form the underwater acoustic network under deployment for area identification purposes of the sensed event [11]. This article had demonstrated a specific theory, manufacture, design, experiment, and the evaluation of the

like the water temperatures, P.H, dissolved oxygen, the turbidity, electric conductivity etc [14]. (Monitoring seabirds in Great Duck Island, monitoring the water quality in Ticino, monitoring the microclimate through redwood trees, street line networks: solving urban parking problems) [9]. The School of Ocean Technology collaborates with the Newfoundland Aquaculture Industry Association to provide the industry with ready access to real-time and archival data on marine environmental conditions in support of sustainable aquaculture production. The project is based in the Coast of Bays region, the frontier of the emerging aquaculture industry on the island of Newfoundland and the center of the rapidly growing commercial salmon aquaculture industry in the Province [4]. It is known that it has been produced an intelligent, innovative system for data collection to manage the requirements of the W.F.D, it is not clear to say that the current systems in the place fulfill the whole requirements of the instructions or the Directive. The project is considered flagship, showcasing the capabilities of native high tech institutes, and it should be salable in the European range to the different agencies which are responsible for the management of water quality which are influenced by the guidelines of W.F.D [18]. This article demonstrate and discuss the novel (A.S.V or Autonomic Surface Vehicles) which is able to navigate in each complex in land water storages and measuring the range of water quality and its properties, it discuss also the greenhouse gas and its emissions. The unique feature of this A.S.V is its integration into a storage scale floating sensor network to let the remote mission uploads, the data downloads, and the strategies of the adaptive sampling [7]. This research proposes a system for WSNs based on environmental monitoring. The system can monitor several environmental parameters, such as underground water level, barometric pressure, ambient temperature, atmospheric humidity, wind direction, wind speed, and rainfall and provide various convenient services for end users who can manage the data via a website from long distance or applications in console terminal [8]. The C.E.N.S.A.M research shall improve the sensor networks which penetrate the environment to gather the data on the parameters ranging from the urban conditions for the atmosphere to the marine water quality, and we use this information to improve the accurate and the realistic models for the process of environment. Much of the researches had been done in the laboratories at the intelligent centre that is located on the campus of the National Uni. of Singapore [21]. And these researches were aiming to find and explore the chance of deploying the sensors on the surface of the sea to monitor the sea depth, temperature, and other important parameters in the environment with the floating sensors. To address the problem of node localization on the critical sea environment, it proposes (P.I) or the Perpendicular

Intersections, the novel of the mobile which prove the localization scheme [15]. This paper emphasizes the advantages of WSNs in oceanography; it points out differences to terrestrial WSNs and suggests applications. In many researches, we can notice that the use of oceanic W.S.Ns is discussed to see the WSN which is distributed randomly over the lake or the drinking water reservoir which measures the P.H values with the magneto elastic sensors and it ensure the safety for the drinking water. The new approach is to verify the advantages of WSNs in oceanography to meet the main objectives: eutrophication, hydrography, and detection of pollution [10].

WATER MONITORING SYSTEM DESIGN

In this section, we introduce the design of our network and its implementation. A. Physical Layer However, a new technology that can overcome difficulties that arise from present systems can be applied. This technology makes use of digital electronics and WSN services. These digital electronics sensor nodes are small, low-cost, low-power and multifunctional. They are capable of releasing communication in short distances. They can be used to collect various high precision data by using the WSN services.

Figure 1. Physical Layer for Water Monitoring System

In Fig 1, this sensory system can be divided into two parts: main control center located at the public authority of agriculture and fish resources, and sensory devices. The sensory devices in turn are divided into two categories: sensor node (SN) and cluster head (CH). These sensory devices will be deployed all around the sea according to their zones, that were already predefined by dividing the geographic map into them, in such a way to ensure total coverage of the required area of interest. Sensor nodes (SN) will be submerged in the sea (all the way to the bottom) and they will be responsible to sense and transmit the data to its cluster head. An example of

SN devices is the .The Next Sense SDL Submersible Data Logger. It can be Sensor ports configured with five to connect to industry standard communication protocols. many the parameter sounds, water quality sensors, Chains temperature, water depth sensors, and Doppler velocity meters are common sensor connections that are included. The Next Sense SDL is equipped with sensor BUS Technology which lets multiple protocols to be transmitted along a single eight-wire bus. It Can assume various environmental factors. The antennas are also waterproof. This unit will transmit the data to the cluster head (CH). The MB-100 data buoy is an excellent example of cluster heads (CH). It captures data from the SN devices regarding The physical properties of water such as Conductivity of sea water, salinity, temperature, depth and intensity of the speed of sound water. The MB-100 data buoy is designed to withstand any rough conditions for years. The wireless transmitter and antenna are placed inside the buoy hood just above the water. It can transmit data via radio-to-shore, cellular, or satellite telemetry. In our case we propose using the satellite telemetry as it is best for covering large areas. After the MB-100 data buoy receives the data from the SN it transmits it to the reception center, using satellites, and the transition depends on a number of factors. To ensure low-power consumption the CH devices will be coupled with small-sized Sphelar EIPV series solar modules. These modules yield energy earlier in the morning and later in the evening. The data is transmitted wirelessly to the main control center through the stationary RFID devices installed alongside the nearby roads, which in turn will send the data to the correct control center according to its digital signature [25]. B. Network Layer On our geographic map, we divide it into zones, as shown in Figure 2. In each zone, we deploy a set of fixed sensors nodes that measure what we seek by utilizing data aggregation and maximizing the networks lifetime. We minimize the cost of mobility by depending on fixed topology to build our network; we need to divide the set of nodes in each zone into many clusters to simplify the communication between each set. We divided the sensor nodes into two categories: sensor node (SN) and cluster head (CH). Sensor nodes are responsible for sensing and transmitting the data to a cluster head. When a cluster head receives data from any node, it retransmits this data to a gateway. End users, who have the right to access the gateway, with access it and retrieve all data aggregated on it.

The finite element method is an efficient tool that many engineers, scientists and mathematicians use to find solutions for many of problems which faced them, either physical or non physical problems .for that it is consider as practical application. Through this method, a spread physical system to be analyzed is Distribution into a number of desecrate elements which can make the problem solved [26]. FEA the finite element analysis consist of a computer model .This model used for the aim of creating a new design and developing the existing product. By this way the designer is able to ensure that design to the clients specification before construction. In addition to that , when modification to excising product or structure happen it means developing the services for a new product .in the case of design failure, in the case of design failure ,use the system to make changes in design [27].

IMPLEMENTATION

This project focuses on water quality monitoring with inexpensive sensor nodes using a hierarchical communication structure. Therefore, a large number of the sensor nodes can be deployed to cover a large monitoring area with enough density. The main purpose of this research is implementing a hierarchical water quality sensor network structure to reduce the cost of water quality sensor networks and increase the density of the sensor node deployment. The sensor network consists of a set of clusters, and each cluster has one cluster head and a number of small sensor nodes. We use the SquidBee technology (an open hardware and source wireless sensor device). The main idea behind SquidBee is that it is self-powered, so we implement SquidBee (sensor mote type) at each small sensor node. In each sensor node, we integrate three different sensors to sense three parameters (i.e., one temperature sensor, one dissolved oxygen sensor, and one PH sensor). The SquidBee transmit these values using lowpower consumption wireless technology (ZigBee). The cluster head node has a high-capacity solar panel and 4-5 accurate commercial sensors and uses a powerful long-distance 802.11 Ethernet radio for data transmission. The whole zone network is divided into several clusters based on signal strength. Each cluster has a head node and the cluster nodes to send the data for the cluster head node. The clusters head some of nodes to send the collected data to the gateway (computer USB connected receiver).

The use of the finite element methods has a lot of advantages, it is very important tool for stress and strain analysis, it is very reliable tool because it is very specific for each occasion and it is able to perform different analysis of the same model under different circumstances with simple changes in the boundary condition. C. Application Layer By using Finite element method for node in water the figure 3 symbolizes the mentoring system in the sea. Have been distributed sensors at distances measured so that data is transferred between them up to the General Authority for Fish resources on a regular basis, the guidance system and overlapping sensors maintains the energy, sensors green symbolizes the ocean water in the equilibrium and safe from contamination, and sensors with a yellow color that symbolizes the ocean water at the beginning of pollution as an example and see that reading the following data:NH3,Carbon dioxide ,Chlorine and DO..... (It is possible to have other readings, but most importantly we mentioned in our search) may have changed, leading to fire warning to the center, in the case of sensors with red and change in a very large readings indicate that the area in case of contamination completely. This system helps to speed in dealing with the problem of pollution in the water

a) Configuring the SquidBee mote and the gateway We downloaded the Arduino-0018 software from the Internet. Arduino is considered one of the physical and open sources for computing the platform depending on the simple I:O board and the development of environment which execute the Wiring language. Arduino shall be used to improve the stand alone interactive objects or it shall be linked to the software on the PC (for example: Processing, Flash and MaxMSP).

b) Programming the mote nodes to send the sensor readings This is the standard code written by C-language to send the sensors readings to the gateway with our modification for labeling the readings and calculating the actual value. In Fig 4 shows, the flow chart for the main program which built in the Arduino platform. In the communication process, used for analyzing and processing the gathering data then produce the connected data alarm.

Using the Gobetwino Application

End of Program

Gobetwino is a generic proxy for Arduino. It is the program which running on the P.C which acts for Arduino and it is does some of changes for the things which Arduino cant do it alone. This is the place to watch for updates and information. Gobetwino isnt restricted to work with Arduino, as the port used for a serial connection configured so it work with most important equipment which send and get the strings by the serial line. Gobetwino listened on the port for the commands which come from Arduino to replay on it. Arduino maybe receive another message from it. Gobetwino define the group of command types which is used as templates to make actual commands. Arduino ask Gobetwino to manage these commands to return the things for Arduino. As shown in Fig 5, we use the following algorithm to send the retrieved data to an Excel spreadsheet and plot the readings in the line chart in automated fashion. This program easily catches the faults by using a line chart on the Excel spreadsheet, so it can improve the monitoring of the problem. In the flowchart there are two loops. The first one is configuring the sensor nodes with the Excel software to be ready getting the data. The second loop reading the receiving data from the sensor and converted into line chart.

EXPERIMENTAL RESULT

Our experimental result depending on two factors the y-axis is temperature degree on Celsius and x-axis is the time of data receiving from wireless sensor on the water pool which represent 5 Sec for each number. It is represent as a line chart on the excel sheet which is most appropriate approach of exposed the result and detect the problem easily. In all figures 4, 5, 6, shows the flow of the data receive from the SN and how the temperature can change in real time period. It appears in three phases. Phase 1, a normal water with 25 C. Phase 2, pouring a hot water to increase the temperature of the water. Phase 3, putting some ice to reduce the temperature of the water. The normal temperature of the water in the pool is 25 C as mention in Fig 6, the line chart is horizontally on 25 until number 13 on x-axis which mean t= 13*5= 65 Sec. In fig 7, shows vary of the temperature degrees with pouring a hot water. The line chart increases sharply so it reaches 80 C within 15 Sec. In fig 8, after putting some ice on the same pool the sharp decrease line get to 35 C. The data result printing on every 5 sec the temperature of the water so we can get the result in faster way but in real life experiment should be less to save the power consumption of the sensor nodes floating on the beach. Our experiment shows the capable of receiving data result in real time within seconds and differ of the temperature thats mean it is appropriate for using on real life cases.

readings for different parameters depending on the type of sensors and program coding. The proposed system can be deployed in Kuwait Gulf waters and sewerage. This work will be continued by studying the problem statements on pollution for each situation and how to solve them by simulating different projects for each one of them. The smart city depends on building a smart infrastructure based on a wireless sensor network (WSN ) which represents the backbone of the city depending on the global network. WSN still faces many problems; the Moving Sensor Unit (MSU) been established as a solution to address one of these problems. The ICT system is more complex. There must be integration of data from different sources, and the cities must have the ability to respond "smart" for different requirements of daily living such as government facilities, buildings, traffic, electricity, health, water, and transport.
