Seasonality and biological characteristics of Freshwater Lake Kudla Near Umri dist Nanded (Maharashtra), India
Journal Title: International Journal of Life Science - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Freshwater is important to human life and large amount of wastewater is extracted from industries, farms cities. Our freshwater demands caused us to overlook the important benefits of water that remain essential to sustain healthy aquatic ecosystem. Surface waters are the most transforming water systems on earth. These systems are transformed by many things like use of chemical fertilizers, climate change, chemical inputs, industrial wastes etc. and it affects the hydrobiology of water. For many years we are using surface water for dumping sewage and garbage. Runoff from social life puts pesticides and toxic sediments to freshwater. This is changing the biogeochemistry of surface water systems day by day. And it will affect the biotic and abiotic components of the systems. All of these toxic substances kill the organisms in the water and make the water unsuitable for drinking purpose, it will also increase the eutrophication i.e. increase in the amount of nutrients in an aquatic ecosystems. The water from Kudla Lake is used for agriculture purpose, drinking, washing, and fishery management. During the study period Jan 2016 to Dec. 2016, samples were collected monthly from 7 to 9 am and analyzed, for the physico-chemical parameters, study of phytoplankton and zooplanktons.
