They are exclusively distributed in undisturbed habitats, and some have high ornamental value. The species are morphologically diverse, but face a problem of taxonomic delineation, which is further complicated by the presence of putative hybrids.

  • Assessment of Water Pollution Status in Uma Oya, Sri Lanka
    Sri Lanka J. Aquat. Sci. 20 (2) (2015): 31-38 Assessment of water pollution status in Uma Oya, Sri Lanka K.A.W.S. Weerasekara*, A.A.D. Amarathunga, R.R.A.R. Shirantha, N. Sureshkumar, W.D.N. Wickramaarachchi and S.A.M. Azmy National Aquatic Resources Research & Development Agency (NARA), Colombo 15, Sri Lanka *Corresponding author (E mail: [email protected]) Abstract Uma Oya, which has the highest watershed of the Upper Mahaweli discharges into Rantambe reservoir. Uma Oya may have been polluted as it drains a large portion of agricultural lands. A preliminary study was conducted from April to October, 2007 sampling six randomly selected sites to determine the status of water quality of Uma Oya as baseline data. pH, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity and turbidity were measured in situ, whereas the processed water samples were brought to the laboratory to determine using standard methods, nitrate- N, nitrite-N, ammoniacal-N, ortho-phosphate, total suspended solids and chlorophyll-a content. Many water quality parameters were within the tolerance limits for fish and other aquatic life. However, the Chlorophyll-a (19.93±10.4 µg/L) was slightly higher than the standard guidelines perhaps due to epilithic algae washed off from bed rocks under high water flow. Total suspended solids (17.87±17.96 mg/l) and turbidity (37.84±59.88) were higher than the standard limits for fish and aquatic life, indicating high suspended solids transported by Uma Oya water. Further studies are required in relation to the cultivation pattern of the water shed to get a clear picture about Uma Oya.

    International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2017 ISSN 2250-3153 215 Issues and Challenges of Post Landslide Management in Sri Lanka (A case study of Meeriyabedda landslide in Badulla District) Heshani Maheshika 1 & Rev. Pinnawala Sangasumana 2 1B.A. Special in Geography, Department of Geography, University of Sri Jayewardenepura, Gangodawila, Nugegoda, Sri Lanka. [email protected] 2Senior lecturer (PhD), Department of Geography, University of Sri Jayewardenepura, Gangodawila, Nugegoda, Sri Lanka. [email protected] Abstract Landslide is a geophysical event that has become one of the most calamitous natural hazards in Sri Lanka. Approximately, over 50000 people have been directly affected by landslide during the last five years and thousands of people are living at risk situation today particularly in the Badulla, Ratnapura, Kegalle, Galle, Matara, Kandy, Kaluthara districts. Since many unexpected adversities are emerged during and after the landslides, it is very important to have a proper mechanism of post disaster management in order to address the resettlement and rehabilitation phases. The study aims to identify the failures of post landslide management while proposing new strategies to overcome existing issues and challenges. By considering the catastrophic landslide hazard occurred in Meeriyabedda of Badulla District in 2014, 92 families who lived in temporary camps and the vicinity of the damaged area was selected as the study area in this research. Both quantitative and qualitative methods which enable data collection through questionnaires, structural interviews, semi structural interviews and case studies are used. A mix method of descriptive and analytical was applied along with cartographic techniques for data analysis and discussion.
