Impact of Aquacult ure on Physico-Chemical Characteristics of Water and Soils in the Coastal Tracts of East and West Godavari Districts,Andhra Pradesh, India

Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING TRENDS AND TECHNOLOGY - Year 2013, Vol 6, Issue 6

Abstract

The Physico-chemical characteristics of water and soil in aquaculture areas were investigated. Water samples were analysed with respect to PH, Phosphates, Sulphates, Total Alkalinity, Total Hardness, Total Dissolved Solids, Electrical Conductivity, Salinity, Chlorides, Nitrites, Nitrates, A mmonia,D.O., B.O.D. and C.O.D. The soil samples were analysed with respect to PH, Total Dissolved Solids, Electrical Conductivity,Organic Carbon,Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, Sodium and Sulphur. Heavy metals like Iron, Manganese, Zinc and Copper were also measured in soil samples. A comparison of Irrigation canal waters of East and West Godavari in Antarvedi and Kalavapudi areas, which are flourished with intensive aquaculture practice were studied. Similarly soil samples were collected from dried aqua ponds from both the areas and are analysed for various parameters to understand the quality of soil and impact of aquaculture on these areas. Aquaculture impact is more pronounced in Kalavapudi area of West Godavari District in comparison to Antarvedi area of East Godavari District.
