The tidal freshwater areas of estuaries have received little attention in ecological research although they are often heavily stressed by environmental impacts. These critical habitats contribute significantly to the biodiversity entire estuarine system. present study aims describe fish diversity, assemblage structure and seasonal dynamics through data collected intensive sampling stretch Hooghly estuary (June 2010 June 2012), largest India formed Gangetic delta. zone has gained importance...
Impact of barge movement on phytoplankton abundance and biomass was assessed in the lower stretch river Ganga, popularly known as Bhagirathi-Hooghly river, during April 2016 to March, 2017. Based magnitude tide, intensity shipping boating activities, from Baranagar Lalbag (278 km), located at latitude (22°38'33.41"N 24°10'59.75"N) longitude (88°21'21.29"E 88°16'5.65"E) divided into three zones viz. zone—I (Baranagar Barrackpore), zone II (Triveni Balagarh) III (Nabadweep Lalbag). Water...
The length weight relationships (LWRs) of six tropical fish species from Chilika Lagoon, India were studied. Specimens caught using a wide range fishing gear operated in the lagoon January to December 2014. fresh specimens measured for total and weight, then dissected sex confirmed. Previously unavailable FishBase, detailed LWRs Daysciaena albida, Eleutheronema tetradactylum, Etroplus suratensis Mystus gulio are reported first time. Maximum lengths Nematalosa nasus Osteogeneiosus militaris...
Recently, there has been global concern about the occurrence of microplastics (MPs) and their associated ill effects on natural ecosystems. These MPs have detrimental aquatic biota possible hazards to human health also. Hence, they included in class "contaminant emerging concern" (CEC). They are being studied widely marine environment; sources, fate, ill-effects life Recently it considered that rivers developed developing countries, especially India China, biggest sources plastic pollution...
Hooghly estuary, the lowermost part of River Ganges in India, following construction Farakka barrage 1975, witnessed improved freshwater inflow estuarine stretch river with significant impact on salinity regime, water transparency, suspended sediments and nutrient load leading to alternations distribution abundance fish other biotic organisms like plankton benthos. A detailed seasonal study was conducted estuary during 2010–2012 evaluate spatio-temporal changes selected physico-chemical...
Abstract In five islands of Indian Sundarbans, issues were identified related to women fishers associated with small‐scale fisheries (SSF) and strategies formulated address them in the context “Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small‐Scale Fisheries” by FAO being followed signatory nations. Women actively involved different fisheries‐related sectors earning their livelihoods. Despite significant contribution livelihood nutritional security, roles are often unrecognized leading...
Small indigenous fishes (SIF) play a crucial role in supporting the livelihoods and nutritional security of rural population Southern Asia. However, their abundance diversity are under threat due to overexploitation profitable extensive aquaculture, resulting sharp decline, particularly India. Unfortunately, conservation strategies for SIF have received little attention from researchers, making it imperative understand stakeholders’ decision-making processes develop effective strategies....
Analyzed were the length–weight relationship (LWR) and length–length (LLR) of two fish species, Strongylura strongylura (family Belonidae) Hyporhamphus limbatus Hemiramphidae) from Chilika Lake, India. A total 616 specimens sampled bi-monthly August 2014 to June 2016 using seine nets screen barrier operated by local fishermen that used for present estimates.
Microplankton population of Asia's largest coastal lagoon Chilika was studied for five major groups, bacillariophyceae, cyanophyceae, chlorophyceae, dinophyceae, rotifera, and tintinninae. The study reported presence 233 species microplankton whose average annual abundance 1631 cells/l. physicochemical parameters contributing to the spatio-temporal fluctuations in diversity, abundance, community structure were identified as salinity, pH, DO, nitrate, silicate. Salinity, transparency, depth,...
The present paper describes various Indigenous Technical Knowledge (ITK) of the fishermen community Indian Sundarbans in West Bengal documented during period from 2013 to 2015. A total eleven ITKs were including therapeutic value fish with special reference small indigenous fishes (SIF) and categorised based on their uses. Effectiveness rationality assessed view experts as well that fishers. study indicated seven rational effective. Those valid include four types unique fishing methods;...
